Refreshing take on X-Men Franchise

Rating: 8/10 (29 May 2019)

Just saw X-Men: First Class for the first time and gotta say, it's a refreshing movie. They did a great job with telling the stories of Magneto and Charles. In regard to those characters it struck the right tones at the right moments and fleshed out their arguments really well. Also sets up the humans vs. mutants plot in a compelling way. On the other hand, Villain was bland and Mystique flirting all over the place was a little annoying but this is a solid 8/10 for me.
