Either they were really good or really stupid.
No you are right about that. I always say that it has the highest highs of all the X-Men movies, but also the lowest lows. About half of it was great, and the other half is cringe induce awful.

Imo First Class was definitely the best X-film... Which isn't saying a lot, but it's saying something.I enjoyed it, tbh... Mainly because of Bacon/Shaw.
Most of the students were stupid along with a lot of the interactions with them and between a lot of other people minus the 3 mentioned above. 😛

Shaw/Xavier/Magneto (and a fairly interesting plot) made that film. Still think it was the best X-film by a pretty good margin. 😉
Originally posted by Galan007I don't know if I would put it above the first one. It's been awhile since I've seen it but I think it was pretty well done with some good characters in it.

Eh, it's true though. There were some genuinely horrific parts of the movie. I agree with the consensus that the student's sucked.
That one scene where they're all ****ing around in the party room- Beast's hanging from the ceiling (is that supposed to be cool?), the Darwin dude was letting the other guys beat him with a baseball bat...
It's like, the writer/director said "Okay, I want a scene where these young people are acting wild and young, to show they're irresponsibility", but he had no idea how real-life young people actually act.
It was pretty cringe-inducing.
Also, the fights all sucked, imo.
Because it was a smart movie with actual "Actors", instead of "Stars". Plus it was nice to have an X-Men movie that wasn't all about Wolverine for a change.
If people love Wolverine well they have Wolverine movies for that. No need to turn "X-Men" into "Wolverine and Friends."
But yeah I can understand people may think the students were crap. The movie were all about Charles and Eric really.
Some even more impressive hi-rez photos.

Interesting see if they can tease a connection to SHIELD, with Viper being an important supporting villain here. What is Hydra without SHIELD?
I'm also surprised no one has posted the trailer yet.
