Will they stick the superhero landing? You decide.

James, Miles and Jam tackle a mutant-sized episode of the comic book movies that proved the concept and paved the way for the MCU. We pop our claws and take a stab at this movie’s themes, from the overarching prejudice motif to the unfolding character studies and growth of Rogue and Wolverine across the trilogy.
