X-Men First Class

Saw this movie over the weekend and wanted to wait for it to digest before giving my opinion. And a few days later, I still love this movie. It gives a new rise to the X-Men franchise movies before never had. Finally we not only see the two 'leaders' of the mutants in their younger years, but the story is also actually good with a nice dose of super cool use of their powers.

So for any of you out there doubtful of going to see this film because you have been traumatized by the four recent X-Men crap fests, don't worry. X-Men First Class is actually good. I really thought for a moment that that movie focused a lot on Magneto (I love magneto and would join him in a second mind you). Other than that the characters were flushed out, just wish they use older versions of the mutants in the next movie. Nowadays everyone is leaning toward 20 something teens that are to wrapped up in their own emo reality it becomes too daunting. I just want some plain good ole fashion ass kicking from adults who are still trying to learn from their powers while knowing what the hell they want in life.
