Before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Before they were arch-enemies, they were closest of friends, working together with other mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop the greatest threat the world has ever known.

"Magneto was right the movie. "

Kweku Ananse Haki

"Slick and fun, the x men get involved in the Cuban missile crisis. Sometimes awkward (beasts makeup is a mess, and they didn’t quite land the gay metaphors) and I still choose to believe Darwin survived bc he was my favorite character along with Oliver platt. Stop making poc be evil or dead how bout?"

Marsh

"Probably the best origin movie for x-men honestly"

Johnny Nigh

"I forgot how good this movie is! I love origin stories and I was so sad at the end when Charles and Erik chose different paths😭"

"I love seeing the younger versions of X-Men and my favorite is Quicksilver "

Nicole Sinders

"Gets an extra star for introducing the younger castings for the X-men."

"Solid story, a lot of good action sequences, cool powers and welcome characters. Doesn't fit into the timeline of the original trilogy AT ALL, though, and Jennifer Lawrence's Mystique is genuinely awful, though I blame that mostly on the writing and the casting director."

Brandon Reed

"this is like star wars mixed with dr strangelove or: how i learned to stop worrying and love the atomic bomb, but with people that have genetic factors that make them do supernatural things 😭 really good though "

"My least favorite X-Men movie ever. The only movie where the X-Men are shoved to the side to focus more on the brotherhood. Yeah the earlier movies did that too, but at least they were pushed to the side for Wolverine, another X-Man. This movie just think the X-Men are the least interesting characters ever. "
