The time is good enough to pen down a review; it took me 2 days to decide “that I should watch this movie” and two more days to write some lines about it.
I don’t know exactly if the director is same, as from the previous 3 versions; but characters are totally wiped off, with only a glimpse of so called ‘wolverine’
Nevertheless I enjoyed the action and the story, it finally reveals why those “mutants” are called “X-men“, that wheel chair guy – professor- X , the man with the power of attracting metals – Magneto….and so on.
The movie is set in post 2nd world war time, when a cold war existed between U.S.A and Soviet Union; and when Charles Xavier(Professor – x) and Eric (Magneto) were friends !! (seems unbelievable?? But yes it’s true.)
And their mutual struggle against a common enemy who apparently was interested in starting a 3rd world war.!!!
The movie also introduces Beast (and his story), Raven (the girl who can chance her body according to her wish) and few other new mutants.
The major action scenes are situated in the second half of the movie but the latter is interesting too, with all the technical stuff (if one is a first time viewer).
Though some scenes are contradictory and out of the book of X-men (if there is one!!). Character changes may have affected its income but then again the action and the suspense picks up the ratings.
Do watch the movie if you are die hard X-men fan (and want some answers to the existing mystery) or if you are sitting idle the whole day, I am sure you would get stuff worth of the money spent.
And if anyone manages to figure out why the movie has “First Class” attached to it, do share with me(my guesses haven't matched with those of Matthew Vaughn)
