X-Men is less exciting than getting murdered

Comic book adaptations have come a long way since 2000, and the production value gap is more noticeable in X-Men than anywhere else. Quite honestly, I was shocked at how awful the shelf life of this film really is; it used to be one of my favourites “back in the day,” and now, nine years later, it looks and feels as cheap as a quick kick to the nuts. From “special” effects to acting to embarrassingly-offensive exchanges between characters, X-Men is a nine-year-old hunk of shit which needed to be put out to pasture long ago.
