    X-Men First Class.......My First Pick!!!!

    by

    Wow, what can I really say about the newest installment of the X-Men Franchise, well there isn't enough good things to say about it, this was by far the best X-Men movie they have made, Matthew Vaughn did a great job directing and and writers Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz are amazing. I have to be honest I was very hesitant when they cast James McAvoy as Charles Xavier, but he did not disapoint this maybe his best work yet. And Michael Fassbender as Magneto was absolutely brilliant. The rest of the cast was extrodinary as well and the movie was so well written that my wife instantly became obsessed with comics and learning more about the origins of each character. If you haven't seen X-Men first class you are doing yourself an injustice this movie was phenomenal.

    The only thing that bugged me...

    by mtknightdog

    Had some cheesiness (Young Mutants bragging about their powers) and some confusing character motivation moments (Seemed like some mutants chose Magneto's side just so he could have a decent sized gang of friends). Then again, saw some people getting emotional during the finale, so I guess it balances itself out.

    ~~ The only thing that bugged me... ~~
    I just wished that the studio would admit that this was a reboot and stop trying to force on us that its a prequel. They used a ton of material from the older movies as marketing bait. Yet, there are too many glaring continuity errors to declare this an official prequel. (How is Emma Frost older in the past, yet she and Cyclops are the same age in Origins?!?)
    The script seems to have been written without giving the older movies much of a thought (other than twice; the bar cameo and opening scene nod) They should just go forward with this movie as a new trilogy and leave the older trilogy and its spin-off (Origins) in its own universe

    Slow To Start

    by

    Mutations can be good and bad in the ways you perceive them. One could have the different eye colors or another toe, but the people in this film have way more than just different appearances. As a sequel of the original X-Men films, the film came far from close to the exciting, action, adventure film it was designed to be.

    With the film different than most action-packed movies with black and white endings. X-Men: First Class has some gray area to make audiences think about it. While the film had some humor with Wolverine in one of the scenes, its a long way from being first.

    X-Men: First Class Review

    by magman99

    The movie was good with good special effects. Kids and young adults alike would enjoy this movie. It did seem they tried to overdue certain parts of the movie. All in all it was enjoyable.

    Go see it

    by wisescorpio

    As a last minute to get out and see a movie, this movie doesn't disappoint. Some of the make up later in the movie seemed a little "overlooked" and probably could have been better especially with the budget they had. Everything tied together nicely. Definitely a must see with your family.
