X-Men 2

During shooting, Singer constantly referred to The Empire Strikes Back as his template - and, by jove, he's made a movie that's worthy of the comparison. On its own terms, though, it's a truly great genre sequel.

X-Men 2 fortsætter i den første films spor, og på den belærende front er der intet nyt under solen;

...en mycket snygg och estetisk superhjältefilm, med snygga effekter och en intressant historia.

...an altogether more viscerally engaging film, from its relentless pacing and slam-bang effects work to the fine, appropriately heroic score by John Ottman.
