X-Men 2 Ratings & Reviews
- chafe5 maart 2026My favorite Jean Grey rom com 👏🏾
- Funcoflix1 februari 2026Awesome flick
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ Rσყҽƚƚ1 februari 2026X2: X-Men United is a significant escalation from its predecessor, trading the exploratory tone of the first film for a high-octane thriller with profound thematic depth. Director Bryan Singer masterfully expands the X-Men universe while delving deeper into the characters and their complex moral dilemmas.
- Humpty23 februari 2025I wish I had the power to stop time too, Charles is OP.
- Doctorthunder14430 januari 2026My favorite of the first three movies.
- Nathan Magreta27 januari 2026Arguably better than the first, X2 adds a new mutant with Night-crawler while keeping the stakes high with the X-men uniting to stop a big threat.
- M08Y16 januari 2026A little less campy than X1, but just as good. I have a bit of a soft spot for this movie. While it probably only deserves 3.5 stars, I like it, so it's having 4. X2 feels very different to the first movie. I don't know if it's because this film has been around most of my life, but I feel like this film feels incredibly comfortable in the world built in X1. The universe feels so well established that you forget that there are so many unanswered questions around the logistics of mutants. It was a really nice change to see the mutants fighting a human and genuinely having trouble with him. Brian Cox's William Stryker was a neat little villain... even if the script left him feeling a little sterile at times. Rogue continues to be somewhat annoying here, but compared to some later marvel movies, she's absolutely fine. The whole cast seem to be having a great time making X2 and you can really tell. I can't wait to see how the next movie turns out (It's really bad). The audio and visuals are solid. The special effects are from 2003 and you can tell but I won't hold it against them.
- AngusMcNutz5 december 2024I always forget how much better this one is than the first one. Comfy viewing for the dumbass nerd in me.
- Harish Cousal12 december 2025A darker, smarter expansion of the X-Men world. The opening attack alone goes insanely hard. Characters get depth without losing the momentum. A confident sequel that’s easy to love from start to finish
- flavo4324 november 2025X-Men 2 (or X2) remains one of the best superhero sequels ever made, capturing the spirit, intensity, and complexity of the comics with remarkable fidelity. From the opening minutes—Nightcrawler’s electrifying assault on the White House—the film never lets up. It weaves together elements from two major comic storylines, introducing William Stryker as a chilling, calculated villain whose plan to wipe out all mutants pushes the stakes far beyond simple hero-versus-villain conflict. The movie also gives audiences an early look at Wolverine’s tortured origins, adding emotional weight without derailing the main plot. The ensemble cast is used effectively, with each character contributing something meaningful to the escalating crisis. The action is exciting and relentless, yet balanced with strong character moments and thoughtful themes about fear, prejudice, and identity. X-Men 2 delivered everything that made the comics great—team dynamics, moral conflict, political tension, and spectacle—cementing itself as a high point of early 2000s superhero cinema.
- Amir Animashaun8 augustus 2025I went in with a high standard since I hear people say this movie is one of the most underrated superhero movies but I disagree. The action, visuals, hair and make up design is amazing but the music and flashy lights are jarring. Iceman, Rogue and Pyro have no purpose whatsoever just to set up the third movie. Lady Deathstrike vs. Wolverine although short it was pretty cool and seeing Jean’s early descent into The Phoenix was interesting. Cyclops sucks so hard bro was barely in the movie. But hey Nightcrawler was pretty cool. I could go on forever but eh cba.
- Godertzz9 november 2025My opinion this film is the best out of the trilogy and its an amazing film. Good sequel aswell
- seric91630 oktober 2025Good sequel. Fairly old movie but still stands up. Ian mckellan and Patrick Stewart are great as always.
- Einie26 september 2025Enjoyable 😉
- Danny Potter-Jones24 augustus 2025These Old X-Men films aren't written that well but growing up with this is nostalgic and feels acceptable. The costumes are still lame but the characters are pretty decent. The actors for Magneto,professor X, Wolverine are really good. Nightcrawler wasn't bad after the first scene as he's very religious so that's comic accurate.
