X-Men: First Class - DVD

I have all of the X-Men Blu-rays this particular 4K is beautifully stunning In Picture quality. The movie comes with a Blu-ray disc with special features on it and the movie itself the 4K. A great storyline I enjoy it very much I have seen this one twice so far I may watch it again tonight after I do this review.

What can I say? X-Men: First-Class (2011) IS my favorite of all the X-Men movies! X-Men: First Class 2011 has the best most consistent cinematography! And the best storyline! Mind you, I "liked" seeing the very first three (3) X-Men movies of the Yr. 2000, 2003, and 2006. But they all seemed a little "schlocky" to me. And they STILL do! The script-writing in the three early X-Men films, while not bad nor atrocious, left a little something more to be desired in order to be remembered! -- which is the basis for most my DVD purchases. One must want to really see a movie again! And maybe again and again and again! I liked the three (3) very early X-Men Films because they introduced the characters for the first time (and their respective powers),... but their stories were nothing like the 2011 X-Men: First Class, which is the Origin Story of BEFORE Charles Xavier and Eric Lensherr Became Professor X and Magneto! In 2011, Jennifer Lawrence is getting better and better with each film she acts in. And -- excellent performance actor, "bad-guy" Kevin Bacon, --rounds out the "non-schlocky" cast of heavyweight actors, Rose Byrne and Oliver Platt in the perfect gravitas- X-Men-film of 2011! [Note: X-Men:Days of Future Past(2014) with Patrick Stewart has TOO much gravitas! and poor lighting/ poor camera work in too many scenes!] [AND, X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) is a little bit too scatter-shot in it's cinematographic overall effect!] The only 5-Star X-Men films after 2011 that I really like as much as X-Men: First Class (2011), is X-Men: DARK PHOENIX (2019), the Jean Gray Origin film! NOT 2014's Days Of Future Past. NOT 2016's X-Men:Apocalypse. NOT any of the other origin films of Wolverine, Logan Origin films, nor the highly entertaining comedic Deadpool films. ALL these latter post-2011 films ALL have their memorable moments, pleasures and charms, but X-Men: DARK PHOENIX (the Jean Gray Origin film) is the only one I have chosen to see four (4X) in theatres! ALL the other films are well-done to varying degrees, but none have that specially good riveting quality of needing and wanting to see it again and again -- as do X-Men: First Class and Dark Phoenix. For sure, sometimes the script and cinematography in these other X-Men films are just not as good -- as in X-Men: APOCALYPSE (which is my 3rd Runner-Up Choice of DVD to purchase)! Other times that particular X-Men film script is just plain not as good or JUST PLAIN LOUSY! There, that's what I can say! I'll give these other X-men movies from 1 Star to 3.5 Stars. But only these two -- X-Men: First Class and X-Men: Dark Phoenix get 5.0+ Stars from me!

I collect Marvel so I had to get this in 4k. Its fun watching these old flicks with improved image quality and HDR, This is a no brainer if you like marvel, if your new to the XMen series they're great. If you like comics you'll enjoy this

This movie was great. The 4k is mostly upscaling. Most marvel is filmed in 2k and then upscaled. The dolby atmos was also lacking. But having the 4k version of this movie was a much greater experience. If you are theater person and like quality content, this is a must have movie.

I have always enjoyed the X-Men movies, and especially enjoyed this new reboot of the franchise. Good character backgrounds and love how they integrated this with a part of American and World History for that timeline.
