Mutant X

I dont know why i watched the pilot of this show, maybe because of the 'x-men' fever hadnot faded yet, but i didnt expect this show to be quality... and to tell the truth the pilot wasnot brilliant. But it was FUN... which is something most tv programmes lack (especially over here in the UK. The episodes that followed werent any better - the acting was a bit shaky (it was obvious the actors were chosen on their looks but that didnt matter), and the script/plotlines werent as good as other shows (and their powers seemed a little useless). This show was trashy... but was oh so much fun which kept me hooked.

But then the show took a break, and returned a few weeks later... and had it changed! It was as if the show had grown up and come into its own. The characters had great dynamic and they worked well together. The scripts got sparkier, and there was better humour, drama, and fights.

Oh, and those fight scenes had really improved. Pratt and Webster have really improved and are great fighters. Not to mention the other actors who have made their characters their own. Oh, and their powers have become really useful.

This show has improved sooooooooo much, and its been great to see that the writers have learned from their mistakes and have crafted a sexy, fun, sleek, and a little trashy (which isnt a bad thing) programme which i recommend to adolescents who just wanna chill.

I just bought the complete first season on DVD because it's Marvel, so I figured it couldn't be that bad. My initial reaction after watching the first episode was severe disappointment, as the acting, dialogue and realism are all just so terrible. I gave the show a second chance, though, and watched the second episode. Although it was probably just as flawed as the first, it actually became enjoyable to watch. I think it just takes a bit of getting used to to be able to appreciate the show. It's an entertaining show, albeit heavily flawed. If you're a fan of the Marvel universe and can deal with a show with a thousand plot holes, then this just may be the show for you.

The special effects were good for their time. So were the characters. Interesting plot line but crappy dialog at times. Not until Heroes came along did I realize something was missing from Mutant X. Good directing! There's a distinctly cheap feeling to it at times, with backgrounds that really disappoint, and scenes added just to make the minutes.

You'll be finding yourself saying "come on come on...get to scene where they use their powers" or counting how many times they show them getting out of a car in that particular episode.

You'll like it if you're a fan of the genre. Still a nice watch if you're not.

This is a great sci-fi action show.I know it's not as popular as some, but I think it's cool.The fx are awesome,the stories are great,the dialog is good,and the characters couldn't be better.This show has some really good actors who almost convince you they ARE the characters they play.This show may not get rave reviews,but I think it's worth watching.

I love this series and still watch it even though its canceled. Adam Kain developed the mutants, but did so only to help mankind. He was searching for to be able to manipulate DNA to help cure diseases. But in some, their genes mutated, giving them mutant abilities. You can tell throughout the episodes he feels responsible for all the problems connecting with mutants. Shalimar is a feral- who is like a cat. Adam brought her in from abuse when she was a child and helped her to cope with her abilities. Through all the episodes, you see a father-daughter relationship with the two. Brennan- shoots electricity through his hands. He is a street wise guy who was a thief. Now turned straight, he sometimes struggles with not just "taking down" his opponents. He has a problem with not being in charge and not in all the loops, but Adam slowly helps him to start calming down. Emma-controls minds. She is soft and quiet and strives to feel needed. She feels close with people they are often after, giving another side for who they are after. Jesse-turns into brick and "phases" letting things go straight through him. He comes from a rich family and wants to prove he can fight. He is very smart when it comes to computers. The newest edition in the end is Lexa- maipulate light. She has a dark past and a good reason for it. She has a habit of keeping the others outta the loop, but learns there is no room for that. She tends to keep people at arms length because of her past and is pretty much hated for it. But as time goes on, she learns to grow more and to trust. This series is very good, the action is great, actors are great and you can feel compassion for the characters.
