Here is My Movie Review of X-Men

 Here is my movie review of X-Men. 

so basically what the plot is you have Logan doing a cage much. then after that he meets Rogue, Scott Summers/Cyclops, Ororo Munroe/Storm,Charles Xavier/Professor X so they all must team up to take down Magneto and the Brotherhood of evil mutants. That is basically what the story is for this movie. 

The acting  in this movie is still great. 

However the absolute big standout of the entire film is Hugh Jackman as Logan/Wolverine. What makes Logan / Wolverine such a fantastic character is that at first he doesn't want to be a part of the X-Men team he wants to be left alone he wants to do his own thing but at the film goes on he starts to learn to accept that he needs to be a member of the X-Men to protect the mutant race.

Patrick Stewart plays Charles Xavier / Professor X In the film. I have to say he still does an excellent job as the character. What makes Charles Xavier/Professor X such an amazing character that he believes that both mutants and humans can coexist with each other because he is trying to create peace for both the mutants and the humans. Probably the best moment with Professor X is where he and Magneto are talking and he is telling him that mutants and humans can get along but Magneto tell him that can't ever happen because humans have been mistreating the mutants for a very long time. Not only was it really interesting but it made sense because it was showing that both characters have different ideologies of the situation Professor X believes that mutants and humans can get along well Magneto believes that only the mutants should be the dominant race And it's probably the most intense scene of the film It's probably the most accurate moment because this is very similar to real life because some people believe that immigrants can't come into their state or country. But some people believe that they can get along and put their differences aside. The chemistry between him and Hugh Jackman is outstanding.

Famke Janssen as Jean Grey I still think she does a great job as that character. I still think she is  really smart. 

James Marsden plays Scott Summers/Cyclops In the film. I have to say he still does a good job as the character he looks like Cyclops from the comics his personality is pretty accurate to the source material. But the problem is he doesn't really do anything in the film he's just there to argue with Wolverine and to be honest their rivalry is really funny and entertaining because they both love Jean Gray. Also Cyclops is supposed to be the leader of the entire X-Men team and I understand when Hugh Jackman was cast as Wolverine they wanted Wolverine to be the leader and that's fine but I think what they should have made at Cyclops the main character and have Wolverine as a secondary character that way it could be just like how it is in the comics.

Halle Berry as Ororo Munroe/Storm I still think she does a great job as this character. I still think she is really smart. I still think she is comic book accurate. But I wish much like cyclops I wish she had more to do in this movie I just feel like she was underwritten in these X-Men films.

Anna Paquin plays Marie D'Ancanto/Rogue In the film. I have to say she does a good job as the character. But the character of Rogue in the film is pretty bad because she's just here to be rescued and just to be looked after by Logan / Wolvenrine. Also the film wants you to feel bad because she is conflicted of does she want her powers or does she not want them and is just really down and praying annoying Because in the comics and the cartoons Rogue was a strong and awesome character and she had a southern accent. The chemistry between her and Jackman is decent.

Ray Park plays Toad  In the film. I have to say he still does a great job as the character. Now this interpretation of Toad is relatively different from the one that I found in the comics in the comics and the cartoons he is very short but in this film he is tall. To be perfectly honest i'm actually okay with that it is a very different interpretation of the character but there are some stuff that is accurate to the character in the comics and the cartoons for example he is always by Magneto side helping him to Help him destroy humanity and make the mutants the dominant race. Also much like the comics he does use his long tongue for combat when he fights Wolverine and Storm in the film's climax. Probably the best scene with Toad is where he tells Sabertooth to not play around and not only was it really funny but it made sense because they had to focus on helping Magneto turn all the world leaders into mutants. It is probably one of the funniest things in the entire film.

Rebecca Romijn as Mystique I still think she does a great job as his character. What makes Mystique such a great character is that she basically impersonates Senator Kelly because the original one is dead. I still think this one is way better than the mystique from the newer X-Men films played by Jennifer Lawrence because in those movies she is way too nice but in these movies she is really threatening and really sinister. The chemistry between her and Ian McKellen is still great.

Ian McKellen as Erik Lehnsherr/Magneto I still think he does a tremendous job as this character. What makes Erik Lyncher / Magneto Such a remarkable villain is he really understandable motivation because he thinks he's doing good by turning all the world leaders into mutants because he wants to protect the mutant race but in reality he's doing a lot more harm than good. My favorite line is when Magneto says Toad has a wicked tongue senator.¨ Another favorite moment with Magneto is where he tries to rips out Wolverine's adamantium skeleton from his body It's probably one of the darkest scenes in this movie. Also Magneto is up there with Thanos from the Marvel Cinematic Universe as one of the best comic to screen adaptations Fun fact actors like John Hurt, Terrence Stamp, Eddie Redmayne, Christopher Lee, and David Hemblen, were all considered to play Magneto.

The directing by, Bryan Singer. What I like about his directing is that he basically got most of the characters accurate to the comic books For example Magneto origin is just like how it happens in the comics he's in a concentration camp and the kid and he had to watch his family and friends be brutally killed by the Nazis and he starts to move the gate which he discovers his mutant abilities.

So in conclusion I still enjoy this movie I still think it does a great job developing its characters. I also stole how it gets Magneto origin really accurately to the comic books. My only problem with the movie is if the little too short throwing an hour and 44 minutes and I think it should have been 2 hours and 9 minutes to make the story progress further. But other than that I still enjoy the very first X-Men film I think it's up there with X2 as one of my favorite superhero films of the early 2000s. I give this movie a 10/10.
