The movie concetrates on the relationship between a young Charles Xavier played by James Mcavoy and a young Erik Lehnsherr played be Michael Fassbender. Firstly had he of done X3 it could have been amazing and the franchise would have carried on, or secondly this movie would not have been made and that would have been a real pitty. I heard somewhere that the guy who directed this was offered Xmen 3 but turned it down as he didnt think he was ready for such a big movie. I Didnt need to be this movie is incredible.

Xmen Origins Wolverine was good if not a little predictable plus I felt it went over much old ground that had been covered in X2 so I was a little cautious with this one when it came out. Movie of the year so far.I enjoyed the first two Xmen movies but was less then impressed with the third installment. Sure, the story is compelling and the action is amazing but the performances elevate this movie far above a common summer flick. January Jones and Rose Byrne are hot as can be but aren't just simple eye candy. It won't surprise anyone to know that Kevin Bacon, Oliver Platt and Jennifer Lawrence are superb in supporting roles but Nicholas Hoult did stunning work as the Beast and deserves some love as well. By that I mean every scene that Fassbender and McAvoy are in together absolutely sing. Love this entire cast but Michael Fassbender delivers the best performance with an amazing presence and command of the screen. Just like the young cast of Godfather 2 was legendary, the young cast of First Class has many great days and projects ahead of them. I am, however, saying McAvoy has a bright future as a complex and talented actor. I'm not placing the X-Men film itself on a par with the Godfather but both have become legendary in their particular genre. Marlon Brando and Patrick Stewart made their respective characters popular but both were more fleshed out by incredible younger talent.
Instead of DeNiro playing young Vito Corleone we get James McAvoy as young Charles Xavier. Seriously, First Class is an exceptional "flashback" look that links the best of the X-Men trilogy to the past.
This film is to X2 what Godfather 2 was to the Godfather. In fact, it perfectly complements that great film and probably surpasses it. It restores the sense of epic adventure and grand-scale storytelling that we saw in X2. If not a genre-defining movie than maybe it redefines the comic book genre. No cartoonish villains or cheese in sight, every side of the issue is presented by people who believe they are the ones who are in the right and the underlying message of tolerance and bigotry only add to the depth of this film. Every character feels absolutely believable no matter what abilities they have on display. The acting here is superb and the dialogue is rich. Going back to the beginning and re-hiring the guy that brought us those films was a splendid idea. Everything in this movie is exceedingly better than what Fox delivered in their last two efforts with this franchise.
It honestly is a genre-defining movie on a level with any comic based film that has come before it. I know some fans can be irrational and hold on to their hate because they expect certain things they read in their books but I can't seeing anyone being that irrational when faced with a result that delivers what First Class manages to deliver. I know for a fact that general audiences are going to love this movie. Fox can breath easy again because I think it's safe to say the even the extreme fanboys will be putting down their pitchforks and torches and smile after seeing this amazing film.
