Rankings:
When the team works together to escape the Statue of Liberty, and blasts Sabretooth into oblivion.
Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman were such good casting choices that they reprised the roles throughout almost 10 more movies.
They opted to go with the black leather instead of the comic accurate yellow spandex.
Certainly not as good as the animated series, but really good.
Notes
This was a breath of fresh air at the time. After years of mostly Batman, and smaller, low-budget movies, the X-Men came along and ushered in a new generation of Marvel movies. Not perfect, but they lay the groundwork for the MCU.
