This movie is carried by the characters of Magneto, Charles Xavier and Mystique! They are very well played by the actors, especially Michael Fassbender that gives a very emotional and nuanced performance!

It could have been just another excuse to jam several x-men characters in a movie to make money, but instead, we started with characters at their beginning and slowly added layers to their motivations and past! What this does is to efficiently make us care for those characters. There are several dimensions to them. Magneto is not all bad. Xavier is not perfect. Mystique simply wanted to be accepted for being her true self. Because these are things that we all share in our daily lives, we are therefore able to relate to them!

Kudos to the writers and directors of this movie! They made something deeper, instead of the usual run-of-the-mill attempt at using and merging big name just to make a quick dollar!

Sure, there are lesser characters that are not as well played, but they are so secondary that it doesn't really bring anything down.

Well worth getting this movie!

Got this on sale for 10 bucks and couldn't be happier. A simple Breakdown for anyone curious.

Overall what I got for what I paid 5/5

Great movie liked the actors and the story line. Liked the whole series and this fits right in. Can't wait until the next 1 comes out

Great acting by all. Enjoyable and entertaining. Good plot and tie in nicely with the the later sequal of the series, we have seen earlier. Gut wrentching special effects. Very well done! I wish there were more. .. Look forward to the next.

J'étais amateur de comic books quand j'étais jeune et les X-Men faisaient partie, avec The Avengers, de mes équipes préférées.

Cette version des ''origines'' des X-Men est, à mon humble avis, très bien faite, respectant l'esprit des comics de ma jeunesse. Il y aura toujours des différences entre les films et les comics d'origine, mais dans l'ensemble, j'ai trouvé le tout très bien.

Alors, personellement, je recommande ce film aux amateurs du genre.

goodbye cartoon hello movie series. i alway wanted to see how the x-men start and this movie wasn't disappointing with actors, actresses or action. make sure to buy

Easily one of my favourite films! Awesome cast, great effects, everything! A must for every X-Men fan as it goes through the origins of the X-Men

After the disappointing "X3" and the baffling "Wolverine" "First Class" is a breath of fresh air. A great cast and a great story (in spite of a few serious missteps).

this movie does a fantastic job of delving deeper into the back story of the x-men and the way they tell it is wonderful. Great acting, great story, great special effects, this movie has it all.

This is an excellent movie with a nice back story of each of the characters in the X-Men movie series. I didn't have a lot of high hopes going into this one but was pleasantly surprised. Also, the video quality is excellent is great to show off HD.
