Splat 1/4
X Games 3D: The Movie (2009)
"This feature is X-treme only in its multidimensional dullness, which is compounded by interviews in which the interchangeable thrillbots discuss themselves and each other with an immense lack of insight."
Kyle Smith
Splat 2/4
The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)
"The X-Files: I Want to Believe is atmospheric and moves briskly, but it's basically TV writ large."

Tomato
X-Men (2000)
"An entertaining adaptation of the classic comic book, boasting excellent special effects and sets."
Jonathan Foreman
Tomato 3/4
X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)
"A super-buff Jackman gets to explore the character in more depth than previously and Liev Schreiber, as his brother, makes a dandy bad guy."
Splat 2.5/4
X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)
"The Last Stand isn't awful, but Ratner lacks Singer's subtlety and ability to cleanly navigate convoluted story lines crammed with super-powered characters."
X2: X-Men United (2003)
"As irresistible as movie-theater popcorn -- a lavish, reasonably intelligent, well-acted sequel with kick-butt effects that outdoes its predecessor, 2000's X-Men, in almost every department."
XX/XY (2003)
"Awkward, listless and fails to reach any sort of climax."
Megan Lehmann
XXX (2002)
"Unfortunately, its efforts to pander to this pubescent demographic are often laughable."
XXX: State of the Union (2005)
"Mostly an excuse for cramming as much gratuitous violence as possible into a PG-13-rated flick running only 92 minutes."
XXY (2008)
"Ines Efron and Martin Piroyanski give strong performances as Alex and Alvaro, respectively. Debuting director Lucia Puenzo, who co-scripted, tackles a dicey subject with sensitivity and taste."
