X-Men First Class: NR Review 1

(If you were wondering, NR stands for "New Release")

Welcome to my first review, which, of course, is...

X-MEN FIRST CLASS!!!!!! Let's Begin

STORY:
We begin are plot in 1944 in a Nazi camp where a a young Eric Lensherr AKA Magneto (Micheal Fassbender) Who is just discovering his mutan powers, the ability to bend medal. Our main villain of the plot, Kevin Bacon playing...Evil Kevin Bacon who is an...evil Nazi who wants to harness Erics powers and use them for...Evil Kevin Bacon stuff. We also see a young Charles Xavier AKA Proffesor X (James Mcavoy) Who has the power to control or read peoples minds who befriends a young Raven AKA Mystique (Jenifer Lawrence) Cut to the 1960's during the Red scare ara where Eric is off hunting and killing Nazis while Charles is at Oxford useing his powers for the worst evil of all, picking up chicks (Oh No!). He is soon asked by the goverment to stop Kevin Bacon. Xavier soon starts recuriting mutants to help stop Kevin Bacon, one of which is Eric. They soon become great friends. But when they discover that Kevin Bacon is trying to start WWIII (Thats World War 3 for those who don't know)! Know they must band togeather to stop Kevin Bacon and keep the USA and Soviets from killing each other.


PROS

The movie is a great way to start out the series because it answers almost all of questions as to how or why something is in the first X-men movie. Mcavoy and Fassbender to a great job as Proffeser X and Magneto and their friendship is very believable. You see both sides of the argument of wheather to save or kill the humans. Beast and Mystique represent the two sides of the arqument in this movie and also the audience depending on which side they take. While most of the characters are not that well deveolped (Emma Frost, Angel, or that black dude who is the first die, just like in all movies) This movie is not about them. It's about Pro. X and Magneto and how thier relashonship begins and ends. Also, the way they handle the "Traning" montage in the middle act of the movie was really well done. Another thing, The comedy in this movie was pretty funny, I laughed at almost every single joke in this movie, not that there is alot of it. And the action, OH MY GOD the action was great. The thrid act of this movie was AMAZING. my jaw dropped so many times I can't even count. They were also shot well, none of that shacky cam "CAN'T SEE WHATS GOING ON" crap here (I'm lookin at you Expendables). And even though Emma Frost wan not needed in this movie AT ALL, She was very...um

CONS

Once again, A lot of the characters were not well developed, like Kevin Bacon. Speaking of Bacon, his motavation was pretty weak. The CG was...OK. It was a lot better than Wolverine, sure, but it just looked to much like CG sometimes. The best uses of it were with Magneto and any flying character.

CONCLUSION

Over all, First class is not a movie you should miss. It has action, drama, and...Emma Frost. Fun for all ages 8 and up.
