Reviews for X-Men: First Class. “Looks and feels like a very cheesy Cold War-era B movie...” ―New Yorker “January Jones ... in a James-Bond-style white catsuit, probably sums up the tone of the film as it should have been the whole way through.” ―ABC Radio (Australia) “Easily chimes in as the best, most engaging and visually impressive X-film so far.” ―The Age (Australia) “It's as absurd a piece of alternative history as Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, but much less fun.” ―Guardian [UK] “It uses the themes of the previous movies to build an intelligent, fast-paced, and highly entertaining prequel.” ―Film.com “This blazing "pre-boot" breathes new life into the sagging franchise” ―Richard Roeper.com
