X-Men First Class

Hi dare, you pathetic humans. Today I'm going to be talking about the new X-men movie. Many people are afraid that this movie sucks. I went in to the theatre, with something telling me that this movie was going to great. But, much to my surprise.... I was totally right! I know many people don't like people to spoil the movie, so I'll try and give the least bit of information possible. And in case you didn't already know, this movie is a prequel. Meaning it takes place before the first movies

My favorite character (to my surprise) is Prof. Charles Xavier. In the older movies I always found him kinda... lame. And was not in any way impressed with his powers. But in this movie, Xavier is young, able to walk, and very intresting. We also get to see a lot of his powers (being that he is actually on the frontlines fighting in this movie). He's also very believable as a young man. Before he was called upon to fight our enemy in the movie, he likes to spend his free time drinking, partying, and flirting with chicks. Of course he has to study for his test in college too.

My second favorite character is Magneto/ Erik. I'll just get to the point and say, I like the older Magneto better than this guy who plays him. Maybe it's because in this movie, Magneto is a "good guy" and working with Xavier and that throws me off a bit. Not that this actor (Michael Fassbender) is a BAD actor, I just perfer the older one more. I do like Magneto's back story though. Wanna hear it? Well to bad, go watch the movie!

Theres also a lot of other characters. Much are new and much are familar to old fans of the triology. Raven/Mystique is in it as well. We get to see her as a young innocent girl who has some self-esteem problems. The same can be said for Hank McCoy/beast... only he's not a girl. There's also a 3 second cameo of Wolverine! He only has one line though.

I would highly suggest seeing this movie, even if your not an X-men fan.

Untill next time, I'm Lord Semaj, and that will be all.
