I had seen "X-Men" many years ago and thought it was "meh." I recently re-watched it with my kids because I thought they might like the series and liked it more than I did the first time. It feels much less bloated and self-important than so many other superhero movies. I also just think it's cool that each person has his/her own unique abilities, especially when they work together to stop bad guys. Heroes like Batman and Iron Man, as far as I can tell, are only good at beating people up and wouldn't be much if it weren't for all their gadgets and costumes. But all of the X-Men actually have actual powers that set them apart.
And good grief, I think Hugh Jackman is sort of silly most of the time, but can I please look like him as I get older? Dude is ripped.
Grade: B
