X-Men was a good movie...not great, but good, and it served as a passable introduction to the characters. As you pointed out, the lead roles were too flat, but there's ample room for growth & development in the sequels. ]]>

I pretty much agree with your comments about the movie X-Men. It wasnt bad but in no way was it a showstopper. The characters were way underdeveloped and the plot was cheesy to say the least. I have been a huge fan of Marvel comics for years, actually since the early 70's until the mid 80's. In the comic book the characters were very developed, each having a specific mood and temperment to go along with their many powers. One of the biggest flaws in this movie was the casting of Halle Barry as Storm who was a much more agressive role in the comic book. Fierce and intense is how she is portrayed in the comic book while in the movie she appears like Professor X's cute closet muffin that nobody talks about. I didnt think the set was bad though , I disagree with you there. I liked the costumes to some degree (I mean how much can you really do with spandex?). I wish the movie had a darker edge to it like the comic book with a more serious emotional overtone to give it some umph. Otherwise its just a cute interesting movie. Even Spiderman had more punch to it... ]]>
