Hay guys, you know that “X-Men Days of Future Past” has
released on May 21, 2014. So I think it is time to remember
the past movies of X-Men series. So I am starting with “X-Men” which released
on 2000. X-Men was the first movie of
the movie series. Its budget was 75 million and it earned $296,339,527(Box
Office). Now I am telling you the story of X-Men.
The first scene of X-Men, a 13 years old boy is separated
from his parents upon entry to a concentration camp. This boy is Erik
Lehnsherr. He causes a set of gates to bend towards him, in attempting to reach
them, as though attracted by a magnetic force. So this Erik Lehnsherr is a
mutant and known as Magneto. Decades lated, Senator Robert Kelly attempts to
pass a "Mutant Registration Act" in Congress which would force
mutants to publicly reveal their identities and abilities. Present are
Lehnsherr and Professor Charles Xavier, who privately discuss their differing
viewpoints on the relationship between humans and mutants.
Marie D’Ancanto a 17 years old girl who lives in Meridian.
She is a mutant. She puts her boyfriend into a coma while she kissing him which
was caused by her unknown superhuman ability to absorb the life force and
mutant abilities of anyone she touches. She becomes very afraid and she leaves
home with a new name, Rouge. She runs away to Laughlin City, Alberta. She meets
Logan, an amateur fighter known as the Wolverine. Logan possesses superhuman
healing power. They become friends and while on a road they are attacked by
Magneto’s man Sabretooth who is also a mutant. At that moment Strom and Cyclops
arrive and save Wolverine and Rogue. They take them to X-Mansion in Westchester
County, New York. There Wolverine and Rogue meet Professor Charles Xavier, who
leads a group of mutants called the X-Men. They are trying to seek peace with
the human. Here they educate young mutants in the responsible use of their
powers, and stop Magneto from escalating the war with humanity. Magneto's
kidnaps Senator Kelly by his allies Toad and the shapeshifter Mystique. They
brought Senator Kelly to their lair. Magneto uses Kelly as a test subject of a
machine that artificially induces mutation. Kelly escapes from there by using
his new mutant abilities. After escaping he comes to X-Mention. In X-Mention an
accident causes Rogue to use her powers on Wolverine. She becomes very upset
with this and convinced to leave the X-Mention by Mystique who was disguised as
her classmate Bobby Drake and she left. Xavier uses his mutant-locating machine
Cerebro to find Rogue but Mystique infiltrates Cerebro and sabotages the
machine so he becomes ill. Wolverine finds Rogue at the train station.
Wolverine convinces Rogue to stay with Xavier and after that a fight ensues
when Magneto, Toad and Sabretooth arrive and kidnap Rogue. Senator Kelly was
dying due to the instability of his artificial mutation. The X-Men learn that
Magneto was severely weakened in the test of the machine on Kelly. They realize
that he intends to use Rogue's power transferring ability to power the machine
in his place. And this will put her life at risk. After that the X-Men stop
Magneto and make peace with the humans. This is the story of “X-Men”.
X-Men is an awesome superhero film of 2000. The graphics of
X-Men is good also and the story is very interesting. I will come back with the
story of “X2”, the second film of X-Men Movie Series. Until then good bye. I
hope you enjoyed the review of X-Men.
