This really is "First Class"

Rating: 9/10 (28 July 2013)

Being a fan of the original X-Men films, I was really looking forward to this. I thought it would be interesting to find out a little bit more about the earlier lives of Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr.
I really liked how the story developed and the roles of Charles and Erik were portrayed fantastically by James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender respectively. The other (previously unseen) mutants in this movie were also interesting, especially Hank. The cameo from Wolverine was also hilarious.
The storyline was great and plenty of action to keep you gripped. Overall this film was brilliant and I am really looking forward to 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' now, especially after this one was left on such a cliffhanger. I think this is definitely as good as the original trilogy of X-Men films, possibly better. This is one that you just have to see.
10/10 -
