Movie Review : X-MEN : First Class

The Marvel Comic movies keep coming?this time its the XMEN. For fans of the series and even folks who know nothing about it, I have some good news. Fresh young faces join together to make one of the best prequels in recent memory. Buckle up and get ready for the "X-MEN" like you have never seen them before. Its the XMEN, younger, cooler, better. In this fifth installment, which is a prequel, we meet a young Professor X (James MacAvoy) and young Magneto (Michael Fassbender) before they become mutant superheroes and turn into enemies. The setting is the 1940’s through the 1960's?in the middle of the cold war. This is the set up for X-MEN:First class. This movie has all the elements of a big summer movie. Great action sequences, nice special effects, and a wonderful human element that makes this film even that much better. It is really a perfect summer movie with young actors, retro costumes, and top notch action. The Flick-o-meter gives "X-MEN: First Class" five out of five. This film is exactly what the franchise needed. There is a good chance that this will be one of the best films of the summer. So now you know before you go.
