Interesting & Educational

Rating: 8/10 (20 September 2014)

I was never really into comic books growing up, so there is a lot I don't know about the "origins" of a lot of the characters in the super hero movies. That is, until the recent flood of Marvel & DC Comics movies and shows that have been coming out. X-Men: First Class taught me how Professor X, Magneto, Raven, etc. came to be who they are. It was interesting to see where Magneto got his helmet. I think Kevin Bacon did a good job with his character. I didn't even know he was in the movie. It was cool seeing all the different characters' abilities/powers. I didn't know what to expect from the movie but I thought it was actually pretty cool. It was worth watching. If anyone hasn't seen any of the X-Men movies, watch this one first.
