X2 (2003) 8/10

Starring : Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, Halle Berry, Famke Janssen, James Marsden, Anna Paquin, Brian Cox, Rebecca Romijn
Director : Bryan Singer
Running Time : 128 mins

The X-Men return, this time faced with a new enemy in the form of William Stryker (Cox), who plans to eradicate all of mutantkind, starting with those in Professor Xavier’s school! An unlikely alliance is formed between the X-Men and Magneto (McKellen) as Stryker attacks, and Wolverine (Jackman) discovers some interesting facts about his past.

I enjoyed this much more than the third instalment, which just had too many character, all of whom seemed to either have the wrong powers or were just out of place. With this, there weren’t too many characters to keep track of, and the plot was simple enough to follow.
