The movie I'm going to talk about is X-Men: First Class, which in some people's opinions was the worst X-Men movie to date, but while there are some scenes in the movie which I think didn't go with the plot of the whole movie, but other than that I found the movie really enjoyable. The actor James McAvoy did a great job playing Charles Xavier, and Michael Fassbender also did a great job playing Erik Lehnsherr/Magneto it made the film look as if they were shooting a documentary about mutants, which isn't a bad thing it made the movie really believable and realistic which you don't get from many movies these days, because most movies I've seen are over done pieces of shit where the trailer for the movie is better than the movie itself which in turn makes you spend your hard earned money on a movie that was over hyped by the trailer. This movies' trailer didn't do that at all as you will see below.
X-Men: First Class Trailer
X-Men: Frist Class (IMDB Trailer)<--Recommended
As you saw in the trailer if you watched it and didn't just skip over it to read the next part it wasn't over done nor did it give you expectations of things that were going to be awesome and then after you saw the movie, you didn't come walking out of where ever you saw the movie at saying, "what the fuck where was the scene when they where standing in front of the destroyed CIA building.", this movie will not have you saying anything like that the only thing you'll be saying at the end of this movie is, "WOW, I have to see that again.", the is that good in my opinion.
Flaws of the Movie
Well the only thing I found wrong with this movie is the scene in which you had Huge Jackman who played Wolverine in "X-Men, X-Men 2,and X-Men United, and X-Men Origins: Wolverine", in the scene McAvoy's and Fassbender's characters walk into a bar and Jackman gets one line in the movie which is "Go Fuck yourselves." as if he already knew what they where gonna ask him, I think they should have had them go to the bar and ask him to join the group first then tell them "Go fuck yourselves".
The other problem I had with this movie is the fact that Kevin Bacon was in it, I'm not saying he's a bad actor, but Kevin Bacon kind of brought the movie down and the reason I say that because Kevin Bacon shouldn't do action movies like Johnny Depp shouldn't do children's movies, Kevin Bacon should stick to Drama and romance movies. Basically he should do movies that have very little action in them and he'll be find.
In my opinion you should go see this movie and bring your friends and family along, because this movies is fun for the whole family.
