Sir Ian Mckellen is an excellent actor. Unfortunately I think he was miscast for the role of Magneto. He comes across as more of a crippled old codger than a physically fit despot.

i like magnito best becuase he's bad, but he's fighting for what he sees as good, not just to go aniahlate everyone who breaths. He's not just a syco killer dude.

despite the movie-verse's misrepresentation of magneto "physically," which i completely agree is off-base, mckellen does an excellent job portraying magneto's haunting, villainous nature. the scene that stands out most to me when i think of his performance as magneto is when xavier goes to visit him in the plastic prison (the triskelion(sp?) in the ultimate universe) and magneto is so ghostly with his responses, and in portraying his relationship with xavier. grade a work.

I agree the movie does, at least, capture magnito's character well. The impression that magnito is for a good cause does, however, come across more in the old cartoons. That is where i got that impression at least.

Yes, McKellen did an excellent job as an actor and played the character quite well but he just didn't have the look I was expecting. Personally I would have considered casting Julian Sands ( Known for; Boxing Helena, The Killing Fields, Warlock & Rose Red. ) And IF he could act better, which he can't Dolph Lundgren could have made an interesting Magnus.

my favorite villain is Wolverine. I like when they try to pass a barely inside the line killer as a good guy. In some aspects, the Punisher is looked at as a good guy.
My fav villian is Sabretooth, more the movie version though, as I find the comic one a tad bit too violent for my liking. I love cats, so, yeah, hence why I love Sabes.
Cheers,
Mana
