X-Men: United (X2)

2nd film in the ever so epic series, X-men.

We find Logan searching for the place where he was created, only to find ruble. Logan decides to go back to the school and reunite with everybody there. We soon meet Nightcrawler a mutant that tried to kill the president after almost doing it and getting shot, Storm and Jean got out and take him back to the school. Stryker decides to use his son, Jason to manipulate, Xavier in the killing of all the mutants, that was after drugging Magneto in giving him secrets. Magneto decides to help the X-Men in getting to Stryker stop and possible kill him, only to find that, Magneto has his own plans with Xavier while he's hooked to Strykers version of Cerebro.

X2, or X-Men: United is still my favorite X-Men films of the whole series. Has pretty good acting, a good strong story line with epic looking effects, and finally they introduce a new mutant.

We did get to see the students use there powers in the film, which looked awesome. As well as see Nightcrawler go around and teleport and leave a blue smoke behind.

I found that this film was rated R for the final cut, but decided to cut a part to bring it down to PG:13. I think they should of kept the original cut, could of been good.

The ending leaves you waiting for the 3rd film, because now Jean becomes, The Phoenix. We did see a little bit of Jean's powers becoming more powerful and more violent, but just a preview. Which still did look epic, as her eyes turned bight yellow, you knew she was changing into something else.

This film was pretty epic, had some awesome battle scenes and just awesome CGI. Should not be missed.

I give X-Men: United _8/10_
