First Class, indeed.

One of the greatest Marvel comic adaptations ever made, and comic adaptation in general. It certainly gives The Dark Knight a run for its money. Deliciously stylish, never slowing down but never losing focus on the character interactions. The special effects and action sequences are spectacular and dazzling. Mathew Vaughn has done the X-Men franchise proud, breathing in new life and energy, and never sacrificing the political subtexts on human rights. Michael Fassbender is remarkable as Magneto. Yes, don't miss this one, even if you aren't a fan. And keep an eye out for some welcome cameos!
