X2: X-Men United (2003) 7/10

I have no idea when I saw the first X-Men movie, but I do know it was at least ten years. So I figured it was about time to watch the next in the series.Basically, everything I know about the X-Men is what was in the movies. So I didn't go in to either movie with preconceived notions about who and what they are.It's an enjoyable film, with a lot of action, interesting story, and really well done effects. I especially liked Jean Grey's struggles, and Nightcrawler is an interesting character as well. And of course Storm and Mystique.Getting some background on Wolverine's origin was good to have as well (even if it isn't canon), especially for someone who knows next to nothing about the characters.
