[2011] X-Men: Lesson One

After hesitating for a long time whether or not to watch this film, I was
really worried that it would turn into the destructive virtue of "Wolverine" again.
How many bad movies can the "X-Men" sign stand up to?
So the camel almost bite the bullet and began to look at this piece.
To my surprise, this film can't help being seen,
and there is no interest in it.

Because it belongs to the nature of the "X-Men" prequel,
this film boldly uses many new faces.
And it also made ordinary humans no longer the background and vase,
but actually joined the plot.

On the other hand, this work focuses on the process of mutated people
gradually adapting to their own abilities, and
at the same time discusses the awakening and changes of their self-consciousness.
Such a deeper and multi-angle psychological description
is really rare in commercial blockbusters.

The last thing worth mentioning is, of course
, the early fetters between "Professor X" and "Magneto King" .
In this era of consuming male sex and rotten women in power,
facing such a setting, we can only accept it speechlessly.
