It's a rich, impressive comic-book fantasy -- easily the summer's best "blockbuster."

Singer deftly crafts a sleek, unusually tight film that balances comic-book adventure, pulp opera and the fear of being different.

When it comes to stoopid fun, X-Men could be the summer movie to beat.

The most enjoyable piece of pop fantasy of the summer; sleek, elegant, exciting and wildly, outrageously imaginative.

Missing are well-choreographed action scenes, likable characters and involving plot twists.

Superhero comic book movie with a script so feeble it might have been written with crayons.
