Review of X2 (2003) by Jamie E — 06 Feb 2015
Coming off X-Men, I was hoping for something so much better. X2 is better but while X Men 1 lacked action scenes and hooking fights, X2 gives us too many repetitive claw slashing scenes which eventually gets boring and sometimes comedic where I feel action and drama should prevail.
The first scene is by far one the best action scenes I have seen in a superhero film. The visual effects step up, but only just.Unfortunately the acting is only average and questions should be raised about Singers direction of the ensemble.
X2 again could be a golden movie, but its repetitive fight scenes and average acting let the film down. If it had half the action scenes and ones for more like the intial scene, this film would be a lot better.
Though I still feel cheated by what could of been a powerful ride. X2 has the right stuff but it doesn't work hard enough to push any boundaries.
