Well, between this movie, Da Vinci, and Over the Hedge, work was hell again.

BTW, Over the Hedge looks kind of promising. Sat it on a little of it during my break. It was made by the Shrek people. If you're in the market to gamble on a movie, try this one for size.

I got back from it a few hours ago. I really enjoyed it; I must say when I read it was only 1h 43m long I was kind of shocked. I felt the movie was a really good length when I watched it; and wasn't particularly bored. There were a few parts here and there that I thought could have been done better, but all in all the movie was really good. I was entertained, and that's really about as important as it is to me.

Might be a few spoilers here, so highlight with caution.

I wasn't overly bothered by the plot devices they changed because in the end they're going in a similar direction, even if they do it a bit differently. Juggernaut is a mutant instead of a nerd with a powerful crystal, the Phoenix is part of Jean Grey's subconscious, not an alien telepath that takes her over, she's not found on the dark side of the moon in a cacoon (though Xavier does use the word Cacoon as a bit of a throwback to those knowledgable in the universe).

And though I tried to ignore it, the Angel sub-plot was just a bit too stereotypically emo for me.

And if you see it in theaters, don't forget to stick around through the credits; there's something there that you have to see.

i just finished watching the movie and even though i have never read the comics and i occasionally saw the cartoon series. I was very impressed. I enjoyed the movie very much and that ending and that part after the credits. oh man i can't wait for the next.

I came back from seeing it and I have mixed feelings about it. The action and visuals were superb but the plot was a bit whacked.

SPOILERS!!! DON'T READ!

Why did people have to randomly die like that? I mean.. Professor X dies and it was dramatic. I guess it was fitting.. but Cyclops randomly dies. That scene was very lackluster. And I understand that the movie doesn't follow the actual storyline but damn, that was crazy. I guess if you don't know the storyline from the comics/cartoons, you'll enjoy this movie. And the ending, they just had to do something like that...

I liked the movie, but it wasn't great. The first movie was great. I think this movie could have been a little longer. It was only good for the action..

Could someone tell me what happened after the credits? I didn't know there was anything after them so I didn't stick around.

SPOILERS****

remember that brain dead guy on the video presentation with moyra, and how they should act if they could transfer a dying persons mind into a brain dead body? well after the credits mora comes into he room with the brain dead guy and she says "good morning" and the brain dead guy turns to her and in Xaviers voice says "Good morning"

:O

END OF SPOILERS****
