Wasted actors and ideas

Rating: 2/10 (27 December 2017)

There are some fundamental problems with prequels: certain later events stop making sense, the non-stop reference to other films weigh things down. It is a long list. But this movie has ALL those problems. There is ZERO character development, just lots of winks and nudges about previous movies in the franchise. Actors like Isaac and Fasbender are wasted. Villains' motivations never make sense (let alone their powers). It is just a mess. "First Class" showed so much promise, but this one did not deliver.
