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.

Jami Bernard

New York Daily News

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.

Rated: 3/4

Chicago Reader

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.

Philadelphia Inquirer

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.

Rated: 3/4

For the Win (USA Today)

It’s a tantalizing sample and a very solid time capsule for where the genre was at the turn of the millennium.

Deep Focus Review

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

Rated: 3/4

It was a good movie to watch in good quality, wolverine was quite good, it was a watchable movie, there were some boring scenes but apart from that it was a very good and enjoyable movie.

The first mainstream Marvel Movie that audiences KNEW was based on a Marvel comic (sorry, I do love you “Blade”), X-MEN delivered a first rate comic book movie; one that satisfies fans & critics. It’s small scale compared to what followed, but it’s the perfect appetizer to what the franchise would later serve!

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

It was a very good movie. There is only one thing I'd change about it. THE ACCURACY. Other than that awesome humor, action, story and the actors really fit
