I re-watched the first ten minutes of the film X2 today. Though I don't remember much about the the movie, the opening scene stuck with me from my first viewing some five years ago, and I was pleased to see that it held up to my remembrances. The premise is simple, for anyone not familiar: the scene is an assassination attempt on the President in the Oval Office by a superpowered mutant, and it's less that three minutes long.
