Introduction:
Synopsis: The long-standing feud and hatred battle between humans and mutants
At the end of "X-Men," Professor X (Patrick Stewart) and the mutants worked together to lock Magneto (Ian McKellen) in a prison made of plastic and rubber. However, this evil mutant's immense power clearly isn't afraid of the plastic cage. Thus, the fight continues as Professor X said to Magneto, "I will always be here, old friend." In the upcoming sequel, they will begin a new battle.
Although Wolverine and other righteous X-Men have done many things for humanity and maintained social stability, humans still fear their powerful abilities that might erupt at any moment. Their lives remain fraught with difficulties, forcing them to live at the X-Men's base—"Dark Brain." But even their simple peace cannot gain human tolerance: Not long ago, an incident occurred where the U.S. President was mysteriously assassinated. Many people who oppose mutants unanimously believe it was the work of the X-Men, prompting humans to send General Stryker (Brian Cox) to raid Professor X's training school and arrest several students.
However, humans are not content to stop there. In response to the formidable power of the X-Men, humans have developed a deadly new virus targeting mutants, igniting a war of hatred and conflict between humans and mutants. Facing a great crisis for mutant survival, the evil mutant leader Magneto decides to surrender to Professor X—aiming to complete his ultimate revenge and ensure the survival of mutants. Faced with the longstanding feud and hatred between humans and mutants, a final unavoidable battle is about to begin.
As the battle gradually escalates, Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Storm (Halle Berry) not only cooperate with Professor X's battles but also continue searching for their pasts. In this installment, he encounters a female mutant who opposes him at every turn—Japanese ninja Yuriko Oriyama (Kelly Hu). He intuitively senses that this mysterious woman may hold significant clues to his own origins. Meanwhile, humans launch their battle against mutants, planning to attack the White House. Professor X leads the X-Men and teams up with Magneto to fight for the survival rights of mutants and rescue the president...
Synopsis:
A group of mutants born with special powers, under the call of Professor X, formed a police team to protect humanity and the Earth. Unexpectedly, humans began to doubt the mutants, leading to mutual conflict...
The X-Men team consists of Cyclops (the captain of the X-Men, capable of emitting lethal laser beams from his eyes), Jean Grey (with telepathic, telekinetic, and instant teleportation abilities), Storm (the deputy captain of the X-Men, possessing climate control abilities), and Rogue (with the unique ability to absorb others' memories and powers through physical contact). They are the core members of the X-Men.
Now, a dangerous individual has joined the X-Men team—Wolverine (possessing super healing abilities and retractable adamantium claws)—a hotheaded, almost uncontrollable mutant, causing instability within the X-Men. The X-Men train new recruits and want to recruit him into their ranks. But is this possible? No one knows his origin, and soon it is discovered that most of his thoughts are controlled by outsiders. Worse yet, another mutant "Magneto" appears, capable of controlling magnetism and Earth's gravity. He was once exhibited as a monster by humans, enduring much humiliation. He hates humans, believing that mutants are superior and should dominate humanity. He and Wolverine team up unscrupulously to achieve this goal. Can they be stopped in time? Will they lead to the mutual destruction of humanity and the X-Men?
While the X-Men swear to defend humanity, they discover that while trying their best to protect humans, humans have developed immense fear towards them, straining their relationship. Additionally, the X-Men must deal with Wolverine's volatile temper and Magneto's indiscriminate killings, plunging the X-Men into a double bind of crises...
