Avis sur le produitX-Men (DVD, 2003, 2-Disc Set, X-Men Collectors Edition)

Birth of the X-Men on the Silver Screen

As the opener to a new medium for the ever-popular Marvel comic book heroes X-Men this movie sets the stage while showing off some of the goods. I like that Bryan Singer is an intelligent director who realizes his vision with respect to the material AND the audience. Not everyone may have known who this band of rogues were but they DO now. I believe all the actors & crews tasked to tell this story did a fine job.

Some unfortunates in my opinion are that stories like this get updated & adjusted due to theater screen time, who gets which spot in the casting list, who looks the best in costume, and misses "essential" parts that aren't decided on by the fans. I was also disappointed that the characters seemed confined when it came to who they were....if you know the comic books you know what I mean...it was like they'd been sanitized just to sell toys. Commercialism at it's best I guess.

All in all, this movie has a great story to tell. The graphics truly enhanced this super-hero tale and the focus on the story as a whole was well thought. The location shots really helped add to the "real" of this movie. It showed that there really could be a scenario such as this right in your own neighborhood. This factor is a plus for a story of this type. Believing in the characters and their situations. Good story telling and a soundtrack to keep the emotion relevant. A keeper by far if you buy it. Well worth it's weight for all types of movie-goers. The second disc is great for more avid fans of the X-Men & the process used to bring this to the screen.Lire l'avis complet...

The Princess and One-eyed Wuss

X-men was pretty good, especially if you'd never heard of the X-men. The problem with action films are that idiots are writing them. Put explosion here. Put nude scene here. Done.

There's so many cool things you can do with the x-men, I don't understand why you would cripple so many good characters. Why do you claim to love the art you rape? Is that harsh? I think Rogue has disgusted us all from beginning to end. I accepted she was young here. One more movie and she'll be flying and stealing powers like mad. Nope. Still gay...

Cyclops though, for those who don't know, this guy was the best leader you could ask for. The X-men respected cyclops. They cut off his ba...

well, whatever

The look is amazing, Toad couldn't have been cooler. Too bad he died. He actually goes on to lead the Brotherhood (underwater?) I know it's hard, to compile so much material but don't just make some stuff up, that's egomaniacal.

Mystique, Professor X, Wolverine, these were done pretty well. Storm improved, but I still always liked her. Why am I reviewing this? Everyone has seen this movie. Sigh.Lire l'avis complet...

Too Much content and done stupidly

That's the best way to describe the DVD. It's not bad to have exclusive and exterior footage of the shooting of one of Marvel's greatest franchise but it is overdone and done stupidly. I looked at the Second Disc because I watched the first film (which the DVD is largely based on) instead of the first. The costume and visual effects are way too long. They go on and on on how hard it was to shoot the scenes, the make up processes, and how Bryan Singer got the scenes done. It is annoying and overdone.

On the second disc, you'll be disappointed that you have to watch the whole first movie in order to watch the bonus scenes; so stupid as you have never had to do that with films before. And here's another thing, you'll have to search endlessly to find the X-men 2 stuff and the film was released in 2003 so it's misleading. You will never finish it because it has like 5 hours or more of content. Overall, it's done and misleading; for the film 10; the features 5. However, you'll probably look for the features so 5, but I can't give a five on E-bay.Lire l'avis complet...

That's a lot of leather!

The movie is absolutely awesome! I loved how they portrayed the comic characters into live action. The leather suits made me snicker, and wonder how they moved.

The one thing I disliked about it was the Extras Menu. Trying to navigate was a pain and you have to turn on the deleted scenes BEFORE you watch the movie.

Otherwise, this was a fantastic movie!
