X-Men: First Class (2011)
Director: Matthew Vaughn
Cast: James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence
In 1962, the United States government enlists the help of Mutants with superhuman abilities to stop a malicious dictator who is determined to start world war III.
STORYLINE : Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were archenemies, they were closest of friends, working together, with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known. In the process, a rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-MEN.
IMDB Page
Entertaining fourth entry in the x-men franchise, this time an origin story of Prof X and Magneto. Not sure why it flew through the cinema's so quickly as its as good as the previous three entry's and heaps better than the tragic first Wolverine origin tale. James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence and Kevin Bacon were all great, I was particularly impressed with Michael Fassbender as Magneto. Not gonna bother going to in depth as there's 1000s of reviews already online, I liked it my only niggle was the Ron Weasley looking kid who could fly with sonic waves, the effects they used looked terrible.
