X-Men: First Class Movie Synopsis

Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were archenemies, they were closest of friends, working together, with other mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known. In the process, a rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-Men.

Why is Mystique such a porker in this installment?!?! Otherwise, this was a fine film.

  meant to be a prequel of the x-men series, i expected to be disappointed but i fully enjoyed the action and story of how professor xavier met magneto and would love to see it again.

  great movie!
