Just in from "X-Men." Really excellent. Even Ace should approve. Why does it work? Good script and a consistent tone. The effects work because they are all plot driven. Nothing is done simply to impress you -- like the stupid motorcycle chase in "Mission Indigestible: Deux"
Hugh jackman is fantastic as Wolverine. A star is born.
And Anna Pacquin can keep her Oscar.
Sir Ian has great fun, as does Patrick Stewart.
