So I was thinking about how there's a good chance that the deal between Fox and Disney will go through and will end the current X-Men series of film. It made me go back and rewatch the xmen films over the past couple weeks.
So I figured I'd create a rating thread to not only to see what yinz would rate it, but possibly even discuss the film?
Anyhow what's your rating for the first X-Men movie?

8/10. Flows well and introduces each character with equal care. No costumes, lack of great action and poor Sabertooth casting are the only negatives.

7.5 that being one of my highest CBM ratings. This film is very underappreciated.
- It ushered in a new CBM filmmaking take after mostly Burton Batman and Reeves Superman, and a lot of trash.
- It had an incredible-quality cast with Magneto, Wolf and Prof X - it ended with Logan, nuff said.
- It is one of the precious few CBMs that have a great allegorical content and message with the political prosecution of minorities. Most franchises never manage to have worldbuilding of the same quality.
- The script and character development is great for a CBM, full of ideas and it borders on serious human drama stuff.

X-Men 1 is a solid 8/10.
X-Men has 3 near masterpieces.
Logan, X2 and DOFP.
They have 3 very good/great movies.
First Class, X-Men, Deadpool.
They have one good/average movie.
The Wolverine.
They have 3 bad or disappointing movies.
X3, Apocalypse and Origins.
All in it all, its been a rollercoaster ride for the series. honesty, progress and good will mattered.

Outdated. But back in 2000 we didn't know how much things would change so we owe it some respect.

B+ 7.5 The more time passes, the more appreciative I feel of the first X-Men trilogy. There wasn't macro universe building or ridiculous action arcs, it was character exposition & patient intelligence. The first couple with the school especially almost feel like Harry Potter style arcs of discovery & growth.

This is what X-Men is about even in the comics. we real xmen fans will always say it.

8/10 The dated cg sticks out like a sore thumb. Maybe so. I thought it still held up relatively well.

I'd give a 7/10. It was pretty entertaining and some of the characters were really good like Wolverine, Professor X and Magneto.
Even though it was made more realistic looking compared to the comic it still felt like X-men.
There could have been more emphasis on the other X-men and Sabertooth could have been better but the costumes and make up was all pretty good.
