X-Men First what??

Rating: 10/10 (21 September 2011)

Not many people can say with utmost confidence that they are sure a movie is going to be amazing. Well, I know I sure can't. I thought this movie was going to be terrible! Just looking at the trailers with Beast and Mystique getting really close, ug it gave me nightmares.
I remember thinking out of the 2011 Super Hero movies that were coming out, this would be the worst.
Oh how I was wrong.
This movie turned out to be one of my top favorite movies of all time.
Ir is defiantly not based off the comics, in fact, it strays so far from the comics that it could practically be in its own alternate universe. The story was really different, but acceptable. The fact that they tied in Mystique with Professor, Brilliant!
They re-created the opening scene from X-men 1 nearly flawlessly, for a good amount of time I believed that they had taken that scene and simply computer edited it to make it look better.
I was so amazed by this movie, I made an IMDb account just so I could review it!
So why give it a 9 instead of 10? Well, clearly because a 10 would make it perfect, so it gets a close 9.9
