There is only ONE good X-Men adaptation

Across more than three decades of movies and television, the X-Men have been adapted again and again - but which version actually understands what makes Marvel’s mutants work? From X2 and First Class to X-Men: The Animated Series, Wolverine and the X-Men, and X-Men ’97, I examine what each adaptation gets right, where each goes wrong, and which one best captures the characters, politics, melodrama and found-family dynamic that define the X-Men. Which adaptation would you choose? Make your case in the comments. Subscribe to Castro on Culture for opinionated deep dives into movies, television, comics and games.
