X-Men: First Class (2011)

Has anyone ever noticed that micheal fassbender's tears come from the middle of his eyes?? it actually looks so odd. I liked the casting a lot and Fassbender is always amazing. Pretty good

Impressive. Enjoyable. Entertaining. McAvoy & Fassbender #excellent Warning: Divorce yourself from all X-Men movies, there is no continuity. Watch by itself, not a franchise. Or you'll be deceived.

I really liked this and was very surprised when I saw it in theatre. I showed it in my Career class and they were totally confused by it. I didn't realize that if you don't know the history of the characters the story is confusing. So, I think it's great for X-Man FANS.

Though I left the theatre happy, I expected more from this movie. Mutant Tier A is tons of fun, Mutant Tier B (with the exception of ScreachFace) is downright embarrassing. Fassbender & McAvoy crush it, obvs.

Meh. Lame. Fassbender and Mcavoy a treat to watch, both great actors. January Jones, however: DULL. Turns out mutants were boring back in the day (screamy boy, killer hula-hoop guy, mosquito girl, tornado-hands man) and their battles reflect that.

If it weren't for James McAvoy, this movie would have been a big disappointment. Fortunately, his confident performance injected life into a middling script and turned it into a fun (if campy) outing. Maybe not a first class movie, but certainly an enjoyable second.

Origin/creation tales are hard movies to do (see X-Men Origins: Wolverine). This movie covered a lot of ground and also told a great story in 2 hours (Magneto: Nazi Hunter). The story was solid perfect comicbook-sense (props: McAvoy/Bacon/Fassbender). #willwatchagain

I don't hate this, but it's not great. I don't object to the use of lesser-known characters, but it was irritating having to explain them all to my watching-partner, and the movie didn't really take care of that part for me. Ultimately unexceptional and uninteresting.

It was just pointless, and inept and inert and full of mediocre special effects, mediocre acting and set pieces I remember only to the extent that I laughed at them. I ALMOST enjoyed the pro-LGBT message if it hadn't been so in-artful that it maybe harmed the cause.
