X2's excessively complicated and character-crammed plot, which only a teen boy could care about enough to follow closely, has a nasty human bigwig (Brian Cox) fomenting a war against the mutants.

X2 still feels like a prologue. No matter how much goes on, you feel like nothing has happened.
April 15, 2013
The plotting seems dangerously self-interested, being concerned almost exclusively with the survival of the mutants themselves, and, behind the succulent effects, the tone is oddly hectoring.

X2 is the movie the first one should've been.

This satisfying new installment looks like just the thing to get the summer blockbuster season off to a supercharged start.

Fortunately, bigger usually equals better here, and when it doesn't, it equals just as good.

X2 is an interesting fantasy, always aware of its need to remain that way. Considering today's Hollywood, that may be its most amazing power of all.

Bigger and more ambitious in every respect, from its action and visceral qualities to its themes.

Performances are solid throughout, with the actors managing to straight-face their way through some truly inane dialogue.

The light tone and modest character development of X-Men have given way to an avalanche of digital effects and a bloated symphonic score.

There's little zest, less grace and, particularly in the writing, no creative spark to ignite the imagination.
