Review of X-Men: First Class (2011) by Ben Sachs for Chicago Reader — 01 Jun 2011
Like Bryan Singer's X2 (2003), this fifth entry in the X-Men franchise is noteworthy for its gay-rights subtext and for its noted actors delivering comic book dialogue with Shakespearean portent. Otherwise it's indistinguishable from most other recent blockbusters.
