'X' Marks the Spot


If you haven't watch this
Super-Awesome-Die-Die-Must-Watch
X-Men First Class,

WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN DOING??
GO WATCH IT !!!


When i saw the trailer last year, i didn't have any high expectations for this movie because all the characters are new faces, the X-Men trilogy had already ended with the death of Professor X, and there is no Hugh Jackman - I'll get back to this later.

 Then as the dates started closing in, I began feeling curious about the movie. After First Class started screening in theaters, friends kept talking about how awesome the movie was. Before this was all about Pirates of the Caribbean IV.

So i threw out all my doubts about the movie,
Went to Leisure Mall after my class,
Bought the movie tickets, 
Ate breakfast at WongKok,
Stepped into the cinema at 12pm,
And was completely taken by the scale of the movie.

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU STILL WAITING FOR ??
BOOK THE TICKETS !!


X-Men: First Class is the prequel of the X-Men trilogy.
It's focuses on how Charles Xavier became Professor X and how Erik Lehnsherr became Magneto.

It's obviously not filmed in our modern time.
It began in 1944 when Charles and Erik were boys in Britain and Russia and transitions to 1962 when they become young adults. Charles is a professor studying mutation biology and Erik is hunting down the man that killed his mother, Sebastian Shaw, real name - Klaus.
(VAMPIRE DIARIES SEASON 3 !!!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT !!!)

Shaw is trying to start a World War 3 between America and Russia.
The CIA recruits Charles, Charles saves, befriend and joins forces with Erik, together they recruit young mutants to fight Shaw. But Erik has his own agenda - kill Shaw, declare the beginning of war against the humans and officially become Magneto.


Charles became paralyze because Erik was deflecting gunshot bullets fired by an ally CIA agent. He swatted the bullets left and right and funnily swat it at Charles' back - spine. 


 This cute guy here is Nicholas Hoult and he acts as the Mutant-Nerd-Scientist-Who-Accidentally-Had-A-Mutation-Enhancement-And-Became-Beast.
He looked so NERD in the movie and then i googled his name and "POP" came out hottie-with-abs-and-bad-boy-sometimes-cute-boy-looking.


Remember i said i'll get back to you about Hugh Jackman?

Well get this,




SPOILER !!!




HUGH
JACKMAN
IS
IN
THE
MOVIE
!!!

He only had one scene when Charles and Erik were recruiting mutants and they tried to recruit him but the only line Wolverine had was: "Go Fuck Yourselves"

Yes I'm dead serious because i was surprised myself to see him in the movie.
So Marvel fan or not, this is a movie you shouldn't be watching on your computer screen or a cheap DVD you bought from pasar malam. It should to on the big screens !


I SAID GO !!!
