Opens with Erik being separated from his mother, only to discover he has the power to manipulate metal. We see Jean Grey giving a speech to some form of government type, saying Mutants are safe, only to be criticized by, Senator Robert Kelly. Rogue ends up running away from home to go on a road trip to Canada only to run into Wolverine, to end up running into Sabretooth with ended with, Storm and Cyclops saving them and taking them back to, Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, where Wolverine joins the, X-Men, in saving NY from Magneto from giving everyone mutant powers.
This film is just great. You have a very good list of Actors/Actresses, portraying a very awesome Mutant/Villain or whoever.
For the film being released in mid 2000, it has some pretty good effects, means a bigger budget, Loved it when Wolverine showed off his claws, and with Storm doing her storm powers. Seeing Cyclops use his power for the first time on the big screen was pretty epic.
This does mark the first time X-Men made it to the big screen, sources date that, X-Men was brought up in 1989 to be made film, then kept being pushed till sometime 1998. Film turned out so good, that it spawned a bunch of sequels and prequels.
This film is pretty epic, and if you haven't already seen it ( I saw this 4 times in the theater ) then you should go and see it, especially if you like Marvel, or X-Men, or both.
I give _X-Men_ 8/10
