Critics Consensus

Faithful to the comics and filled with action, X-Men brings a crowded slate of classic Marvel characters to the screen with a talented ensemble cast and surprisingly sharp narrative focus.

3/4

The X-Men comic books have spawned a cottage industry of mutant characters, and the movie helps make sense of these legions while offering the established fan base something new to cheer.

Exciting mainly because anything can happen and does, the movie drags a bit as it approaches a climax set on top of the Statue of Liberty. But once there it revives.

3/4

This is a film that should satisfy fans of the hugely popular comic book and audiences who can't tell one uncanny X-Man from another. Mutants rule.

4/5

It's impressive how much good casting can elevate an otherwise silly concept. Similarly, it's surprising how much more satisfying 104-minute movie can be, as it's not trying to break the storytelling mold.

3/4

There are potent motives behind every character, and the actionized plot resembles a morality play more than typical good vs. evil superhero fluff.

This movie holds up so well. This movie, for the time, has some pretty solid effects, but some goofy ones too. But the story is actually pretty solid, and it gives us some of the best casting for X-Men characters that we’ve seen to date. This movie, in particular, will always hold a special place in my heart.

Good movie. Thought Wolverine was cool and his beef with Cyclops was pretty funny. I think Cyclops was cool but didn't feel much like a leader but I haven't read much of the comics. Jean Grey is pretty interesting, so is Storm. I think Professor Xavier is really good, I think his a bit tougher or stricter in the comics from what I read and I think the actor makes him way more likeable. Same with Wolverine. I liked mystique and I also like Magneto. Magneto side of the argument is interesting but I like how he is willing to sacrifice other characters like Rogue to prove that he is a bad guy but you still understand the reasoning behind his motives. Sabretooth and Toad was also pretty cool and I think senator Kelly was good despite his screen time.
