May 16, 2008
neptunes_nerd2003 - yahoo.com
I never would\'ve thought that one of my favourite movies would end up being \"X2\"! I absolutely loved the first one but the second installment is even better. The story is good (maybe not so original, but hey...Still better than most... Full review

A lot has been said about this movie, as is the case with many recent Hollywood comics adaptations. While I truly respect everyone's opinion, I really don't see the point in some criticisms brought up against this movie.(Definitely NO spoilers... Full review

With all the hype surrounding this summers blockbuster sequels, not the least of which is The Matrix Reloaded, as well as having to fight the ghost of Comic-book-movie-bombs-from-summers-past, it goes without saying that a lot of hopes and dreams were... Full review

Absolutely happy! That is the only word I can use to describe my feelings after spending my hard-earned money to see X-Men 2. It was worth every penny.Firstly, the makers of superhero films such as this have an unenviable task.... Full review
