X-Men 2

Sie sind das nächste Glied in der Evolutionskette. Jeder von ihnen kam mit einer einzigartigen genetischen Mutation auf die Welt, jeder mit einer anderen außergewöhnlichen Fähigkeit, die sich erstmals in der Jugend zeigt. In einer zunehmend von Vorurteilen und Hass beherrschten Welt interessieren sie jedoch nur als wissenschaftliche Kuriositäten ... als Launen der Natur ... als Ausgestoßene, gefürchtet und verachtet, weil Andersartigkeit nicht akzeptiert wird. Trotz der weit verbreiteten Ignoranz der Gesellschaft schaffen es die X-Men, und mit ihnen weltweit Tausende anderer Mutanten zu überleben. Unter den Fittichen des mächtigsten Telepathen der Welt, Professor Charles Xavier, lernen diese "begabten" Studenten, ihre Kräfte zu kontrollieren und sie zum Vorteil der Menschheit einzusetzen. Sie kämpfen für den Schutz einer Welt, die sie fürchtet.

X-Men 2

Toujours considérés comme des monstres par une société qui les rejette, les mutants sont une nouvelle fois au centre des débats alors qu'un crime effroyable commis par l'un d'eux relance la polémique autour de l'Acte d'Enregistrement des Mutants et le mouvement anti-mutants, dirigé par l'ancien militaire William Stryker. Quand ce dernier lance une attaque contre l'école de mutants du Professeur Charles Xavier, les X-Men se préparent à une guerre sans merci pour leur survie, aidés de Magnéto, récemment évadé de sa cellule de plastique. Parallèlement, Wolverine enquête sur son mystérieux passé, auquel Stryker, dont on dit qu'il a mené de nombreuses expériences sur les mutants, ne serait pas étranger…

X-Men 2

Magneto (Ian Mckellen) è relegato nella prigione di plastica, ma le minacce per la sicurezza degli X-Men non sono finite. Un mutante sembra macchiarsi di un crimine gravissimo; l'attentato alla vita del presidente degli Stati Uniti. Quell'uomo è Kurt Wagner (Alan Cumming), alias Nightcrawler. L'attentato scatena una campagna persecutoria nei confronti degli X-Men; il generale Striker viene incaricato di colpire il male alla radice e prepara in imboscata alla scuola speciale del dottor Xavier (Patrick Stewart).
