Go To

Everyone loved it when it came out, it spawned a billion dollar franchise, but did this series have as promising a start as you remember? Nostalgia Critic takes a look at X-Men.

Release Date: March 6, 2019

Review of: X-Men (2000)

Tropes:

  • So Okay, It's Average: Critic's final opinion on the film is that its an "eh" movie in hindsight, feeling it's a heavily watered down adaptation of the classic comic books and on its own, is a rather by the numbers action flick with a lot of (alleged) Plot Holes that hasn't aged particularly well in comparison to the many, many superhero movies that have come out in the years after it.
  • Special Effects Failure: Critic complains about how boring looking the now-dated CGI effects of Magneto's mutant conversion machine look.
