movie review (x-men first class)

 X-Men First Class

Rated M: Action violence and infrequent coarse language

See how it all began in this thrilling first chapter of the X-MEN sage. Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr became Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were enemies, they were the closet of friends and gathered an elite team of mutants to form the X-men in an attempt to prevent WORLD WAR II!

Feature run time: 125 minutes
Twentieth Century Fox presents in association with Marvel Entertainment a Bad Hat Harry/Donners’ Company production a Matthew Vaughn film “X-Men: First Class”

                   My thoughts (review)
[This is my first movie review (like I review books) sorry if it sucks]
It was actually really good, when it came out I was very iffy-iffy about it, but it was really good. One of those very few movies that pulled me in and let me watch the whole thing without distractions (which is odd).

So I’m guessing you know what’s happening, if not—it’s about the humans finally seeing mutants and well, one in particual that wants to wipe out the world of humans and leave only mutants, only this doens’t really make all that much sense, because you find out mostly about mutants from Charlie and the evil dudes idea of how they became like that isn’t the same.

Anyway, it’s not really the point, the point being that it’s about the start; about who they got the school, how they helped save people and more so why they hid.

I thought the guy who played the young professor X (sorry I’m real shit at names of movie stars) did a really good job, out of all the people in it, his was the only casting that worked for me, the others made you try and put it, but him... just fit the part. I really liked it.

I also like that the first scene was pretty much the same (if not the same) part as in one of the original movies, and that how life off it went really well.

I loved the other mutants around there. They were interesting, they always put in new mutants but these were the start of original ones, which was interesting, exciting, even if one of them didn’t make all that much sense in some ways. But it wasn’t the only stuff up, but I guess things happen, and it would have taken a lot more to have them build it than it be already built. Really their relationship together was very short compared to the way it felt like—or may originally was meant to be. or maybe it was more that they didn’t let time actually show in the movie.

But all in all, this was a great movie, maybe not as great as the last, but that became more with history (oh, saying that, shit it was back when they put him in the movie, like really, where the hell was his brother? Because Stricker (probly spelt wrong) was in the office, young looking, but he wasn’t with his brother—he would have been there two.

Sorry for the bitch, anyway, it was the one thing I really thought about when the part came up. If you have seen all the movies, you will understand. And I’ll put it out now that you haven’t seen them, you should start with X-Men 1.5 and work your way through the lot, they work better that way, especially with the graphics.

That order would be: X-Men 1.5, 2, 3, wolverine, first class
