An excellent prequel to a great franchise

Rating: 10/10 (27 June 2011)

When X-Men: First Class came out, I didn't care too much because I wasn't really into the X-Men franchise. But since a lot of people were saying it was a great comic-book movie, I decided to watch this film. Boy, this movie was excellent.
What make's this film excellent is the story. I like how it show's what Professor X and Magneto looked like when they were young and creating the Mutan Academy. It also has some great performances from James McAvoy as Professor X, Michael Fassbender as Magneto, and Kevin Bacon as the villain, Sebastian Shaw.
The film also has some great action and interesting character's like Azazel, Mystique, Emma Frost, and Darwin.
Overall, if you're a fan of X-Men or someone that enjoy's comic-book movies, this movie is definitely worth watching.
