Review of X-Men: First Class (2011) by Gordon H — 05 Jun 2016

I am going to try to explain this to the best of my ability. Everytime I think about watching an X-Men film, and when First Class comes to mind, I always have a hard time remembering the plot. But, when I saw it again, it all came back to me and it was really entertaining.

But as I am here watching it again, I can never remember what events happened in order. Am I making any sense? Who cares. Basically, this film feels fresh everytime I see it. James McAvoy plays a great Professor X, he's smart, witty and very likable in the lead.

Jennifer Lawerence, Michael Fassbender, Rose Byrne and Nicholas Hoult all make good supporting characters and Kevin Bacon makes a suprisingly good villian. Not the best villian a superhero film has ever seen but a fun one.

Matthew Vaughn does it again with his stellar production design team. If they ever make a Black Ops film, they should hire him because of the way he shot the 1960's. Overall, if you have never seen and X-Men film, give this one a shot.

My sister had never seen one before and she ended up enjoying it. It's a good flick!
