X-Men The Begining.

from Brooklyn, NY
This movie helps to tie up certain questions raised in the first Trilogy of movies by showing the origins of The X-Men and in particular the dynamic between Professor Charles Xavier & Erik Lehersher or Professor X and Magneto respectively. This movie takes us back to the 1960's during the Cuban missile Crisis and gives off a Superhero meets James Bond feel As James McAvoy's Xavier kinda comes off as a Telepathic British Cad almost bordering on Austin Powers type. With Magneto being played by Michael Fassbender who like Sir Ian McKellan before him gives an awesome performance as the powerful mutant. I did like how all the characters played off one another and gives you a glimpse of what influenced them to become who they are in the future as well as being able to see how certain situations can change someone for the better or for worse. There are some really cool cameos and "Easter Eggs" in the movie but for the sake of not giving any spoilers won't be mentioned here. Oh and for those expecting a "Mighty Marvel End Credit Revelation" like we say in Brooklyn...Forgettaboutit. Unlike Iron Man 1 & 2 Thor, Incredible Hulk there is nothing at the end of the credits...as Those other movies were setting the stage for "The Avengers" movie coming next year. All in all...this is a Perfect Summer Blockbuster Popcorn movie that Even if you don't know the Comic Book History of the characters you will still enjoy how it all unfolds and be wanting to find out more. In my opinion a Must See!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
