This is a brilliant way to watch all three X Men films one after another, with no annoying waiting to find out what happens next. X Men one seems to work, as with Pirates of the Caribbean - Curse of the Black Pearl, as a solo film. With talent such as Patrick Stewart as Prof. Xavier and Ian McKellen as Magneto, you can't go far wrong. Hugh Jackman is perfect as the troubled Wolverine. The special effects are amazing and the film really grips your attention. X Men two is clearly a sequel which was never meant to be made, but was because of the money it could turn over. However, it delivers at the same fast pace as the first film, and has the same excellent cast, so doesn't really disappoint. X Men 3 is the newest of the three, having only been released in 2006. It spends the entire movie trying to tie up loose ends, but is filled with amazing action sequences and special effects. The ending leaves you hanging and definately predicts another X Men film on the horizon...... Special features include audio commentaries, deleted scenes and alternate endings.

DVD Description
Contains the titles X-MEN, X-MEN 2, and X-MEN – THE LAST STAND. In X-MEN, the titular characters are a team of mutant peacekeepers led by Professor Xavier assigned the task of protecting the human race against the sinister Magneto. In X-MEN 2, the group once again return to save the world from a group of mutant creatures. In the White House, teleporting blue mutant Nightcrawler menaces the president. Meanwhile in the Canadian Rockies, Wolverine searches for answers to his mysterious past at the top-secret facility where he received his metallic skeleton and claws. In X-MEN – THE LAST STAND, Worthington Laboratories--using a powerful mutant boy--develops a serum that eliminates the 'mutant X gene' permanently. This so-called 'cure' quickly divides the mutant community; Professor Xavier and his school are willing to give the government the benefit of the doubt but Magneto and his mutant Brotherhood see the serum as a vile threat to their way of life. They form an army of mutants and march on the fortified Worthington Laboratory located on Alcatraz Island. A much more dire threat appears in the form of the resurrected super-mutant Jean Grey, who has succumbed to her cataclysmic identity known as The Phoenix.
