    Loved both but Reloaded was he more intelligent film!! Its the only one were we are discussing possible things to happen next and what we think it all means... Xmen 2 was just a cool film and thats it.. no discussion except how sexy the women were!!

    The end of Xmen 2 was very disappointing. It ruined the movie.

    Reloaded is amazing.

    X-Men 2 by a long shot was the more enjoyable :)

    I'm gona go with Reloaded simply because of the intelligence and thought behind it. I love any movie that I can think abotu fro ages after. That's part of the experience for me.

    Although I've always loved the X-Men stuff but still Reloaded takes the gong IMO.

    I prefered reloaded, although I think for non-video game nuts x-men 2 might have more to offer. I just love those reloaded fight scenes, they make the x-men look like big girley fools. Neither film heavy on the plot tho. I have yet to be convinced that reloaded is in any way 'intelligent', unless you are talking as in chimp.

    I reckon that as sequals go X2 was better, coz it kept with the idea of X-men, and improved (slightly) on it, whereas in comparison the The Matrix, Reloaded wasn't quite so good. Over long, pacing in the beginning quite slow and seemed to be trying way to hard to be cool and intelligent.

    X2 was utter crap,special effects story line acting was all crap you can't compare the two reloaded far better in every aspect.

    They have this same discussion going on @ thedvdforums http://www.thedvdforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=193746 and it looks like a fair few of them prefered X-Men 2 as well. Maybe the results here are coloured by the amount of techies that are members of the site :)

    After all I've never seen so many people get excited about a film that basically about the first rule of technical support
    "reboot the system :p

    Sorry couldn't resist that one :)

    reloaded wins hands down.

    x2 was decent, it just didn't have the 'unstoppably watchable' appeal of reloaded

    pfft....no contest!

    the only x-2 had going for it were the action scenes and reloaded blows it away. as for storyline....... have to agree with tusky...

    someone said x2's ending was bad at least it was an ending- reloaded was just the begining of revoultions
    reloaded was better though

    X-2 for me after all it had an ending, Reloaded was just setting ppl up for Revoultion. I'd like to know what Bryan Singer has in mind for X-3 as he said that he was going to make it into a trilogy before he made X-2.

    I'm going with X2. Thought that the action scenes in the Matrix reloaded were slightly better but X2 at least didn't have an utterly snooze worthy start and finish. Thought Reloaded also sort of ruined the matrix world with it's story. It tried to explain a lot but failed miserably and just ended up a bit silly. X2 kept me watching til the end. Reloaded kept me wanting to see the next action scene cos I was bored.
