X-Men First Class Movie Review: Beyond The Trailer

[@AllenCruz]

damn that kid gave a really structured review

[@hevykevy316]

I'm amazed that Kick Ass was expected to be a hit. It was rated R based on a realtively unknown commodity. Worldwide it did well, and Vaughn's direction was widely praised. Good work as always Grace!!

[@CTOONfan1]

That kid needs his own reviewing show!

[@doremicom]

That kid is AWESOME!!!!

[@BeyondTheTrailer]

@FoxyRiotMommy Alas, my intro was lost due to a technical difficulty. :( Grace

[@CallMyName211]

I just came from watching this and I thought it was really good. I had a few issues with it, for one the pacing was kinda weird. I didnt' really like how things kept jumping around in the beginning. I also thought that Erik (Magneto) could have had more screentime, his character was awesome and Michael Fassbender did an awesome job playing him. I feel like they shoul have focused a little less on the missile conflict and more on the actual relationship between him and prof X.

[@kassemir]

@RainGlobule Yeah totally, Grace usually has to ask a lot of follow up questions and explain some things, to get something out of them. But this kid, she hardly gets a word in. Grace is a good interviewer and obviously knew she pretty much just needed to let him speak and not interrupt him. Nicely done kid, you just pawned all of those adults she interviewed!!

[@crimsong19]

Excellent reviews, Grace! :D Especially Preston! - Jason

[@polynesianpuppet]

the little boy is going to be a future movie critic!

[@BeyondTheTrailer]

@partymonster411 Personally, I see X-Men Origins Wolverine has a side movie, not part of the X-Men line-up, as they were trying to start a Wolverine solo franchise. - Grace

[@marcotha1st866]

Damn Grace has been around

[@darklegacy6505]

Wow I've never seen a comment section where no one has commented in 2 years ( I aware that you have just commented 8 months ago)

[@MikeArroyoMAFITNESS]

Grace give us a little bonus clip of just the Kid interview, the kids interview was EPIC. Get him back on the show.

[@BeyondTheTrailer]

@mikeaa000 I think he lives in Texas! :( He was awesome though - would LOVE to have Preston back on the show! - Grace

[@finalfantazoid3400]

Lol I went to college with Preston, he is a cool dude now. RTF major

[@adamsbriee6330]

Finalfant azoid does he still watch grace

[@IsmaelGonzalezJunior]

DANG! that little kid is very mature and intelligent for his age!

[@Jimjimjim451]

Great film, hopefully this should make everyone sit up and take notice of Fassbender, I've been trying to tell people about him since "Hunger". Great presence and deserves those textured challenging roles.

[@ActiumFilms]

Very smart kid! Try and interview him again if you can, Grace! :) Great video. Loved the movie, but I didn't really care about the continuity things. It didn't make sense compared to some of the stuff in flashbacks and 'history' in the trilogy. Nobody counts X-Men Origins: Wolverine. They should definitely make a sequel to this, set only a few years after. I personally don't want a sequel to The Last Stand, and I don't really want another Origins flick. Except for the new Wolverine movie.

[@skcrary]

Hi Grace! Thank you for all you do! My question for you: how did this film rate with female viewers? Thanks and keep up the great work!

[@wastibro]

shittt thats one smart kid, i felt like i was listening to my professor talking

[@LunaFayeForever]

I liked this episode a lot, unlike most of the time, almost everyone being interviewed seemed to actually know what they were talking about (film aspects, continuity, the directors and producers etc.) and they were all very informed about the material.

[@HopePrincess7]

Can't believe a kid gave a better review and opinion about the movie than all the other people (who were so much older) and the movie is awesome!!

[@AloneinFiction]

I saw this over the weekend and I am really happy with the way they did it this time around. From story to characters it was perfect! sequel please!!! P.S. I Love you Grace!

[@BeyondTheTrailer]

@chasetehmorning69 Hehe - thanks! :) Your vote for "Coolest Chick on KZbin" is quite an honor! - Grace

[@theheat151]

X-Men: First Class was awesome of a movie. Definitely the best of the series so far. I loved the chemistry between Xavier and Magneto. And I loved the cameos as well.

[@renov93]

grace, please never ever stop doing this. ever. thank you.

[@F1MXLI]

One of the best marvel movies, really good and comparable to X2 and spidey 2. I loved all the cameos, which \are not just two as was suggested in the interviews. I give it a solid 9/10

[@supersyndrome]

8/10 for sure. Awesome action. Xavier/Magneto chemistry = top notch. They're both brilliant actors. I would knock it down a little because at some points I really didn't believe it was 1962. But other than that, it's a must see!

[@BeyondTheTrailer]

@mattsaundersmcp Thanks! Glad you feel that way! - Grace

[@IceMetalPunk]

I frickin' love this movie! I still haven't seen Origins: Wolverine yet, but out of all the others, I think this was my favorite. It was very well-made, great writing and cast (James McAvoy was particularly great as Charles), and it still maintained that action and the special effects we love without sacrificing the story during those scenes. And (SPOILER ALERT) Hugh Jackman's and Storm's cameos were so well-placed. Perfection, and I don't know how the producers/writers can top this. -IMP ;) :)

[@MrEffectfilms]

I hope more filmmakers learn from both xmen first class and ironman, visual effects are cool and all but we need character development too.

[@vocazone5421]

Great stuff. Why the video look washed out though? :-) Or was it my screen?

[@DamjanPlamenac]

The Movie Represents How All Comic Book Hero Movies Should Be: A Sinister Hard To Beat Bad Guy Has An Evil Plan To Rule The Planet And Our Team Of Heroes Has To Stop Him, Simple, It Also Doesn't Leave Any Character Behind: Each Character's Got Plenty Of Screen Time,The Soundtrack Gives You The Feeling Of The Epic Proportion Of The Movie And The Actors Were Astonishing! This movie made me look forward to the next X-men .

[@k1988smith]

OMG me and the guy in the Owl shirt so think alike. As soon as I heard about X-Men Origins I immediately wanted one of Storm. Ororo is one of my favorite characters of all time in any movie or cartoon.

[@NickGreyden]

More great work Grace. Still waiting for the day when you give us your reviews :-)

[@spugesdu]

Really intelligent audience reviews recently, BTT kicks serious ass Grace!

[@ShadeStar64]

My number one choice for the next x-men film would be storm's origin story, as there was a lot of material in the comics about xavier meeting her in egypt and a set up storyline. The continuity is changed because as far as i remember he actually met storm before magneto, but it could really work.

[@AgonyInTheShadows]

I love X-men, the movies are great and I can't wait to check this one out =D But I don't understand how X-men Origins: Wolverine did badly because that one is very good in my opinion

[@hpfan124]

That kid was basically awesome.

[@MattSaundersMCP]

I just wanted to say Grace that your channel is awesome. :)

[@TheCosmicburrito2]

I saw the movie and really enjoyed it. In the third movie, Xavier was dead, yet, in the credits, there was a scene where Xavier was making contact somehow. If the conclusion to that movie would be better than the third installment itself. That's what I'd like to see in the next movie.

[@drowsy_draws]

WOOO go kid! XD but the way he spoke with his hands was pretty funny Great Vid :3

[@jaydspace]

can someone explain to me how the rights would revert back to marvel (1:30)? i get that marvel sold the rights to fox, so how would they go back to marvel? i also heard that part of the reason they made the amazing spiderman was to keep the rights to that character...is there some rule where you have to keep using the character to keep its rights?

[@Hobzy107]

Hey Grace, when will you be reviewing Super 8? :) And what did you think of X-men first class?

[@RockItRC]

Great, great film! easily 8.5/10. It doesn't feel like a 50-60s era, but I enjoyed it a lot. I love all X-men and Wolverine movies. This one is a must see in 2d. Cameos were nice! PS: was Stan Lee anywhere? Didn't see him...

[@curlyfryist]

I don't see a movie before I watch a review. Thanks Grace :DD

[@Miatapeace91]

I can't wait to see this film tomorrow! Kick Ass was KICK ASS! It's right up there with Dark City and From Dusk Till Dawn. Not that it was anything like them just equally..... well Kick Ass!

[@gollumclay]

Saw it on Wednesday, and personally i think it is the best X-Men film yet! Fox should give Vaughn whatever he wants to sign him on for 2 more films to complete this trilogy.

[@WarriorElf54]

This movie was EPIC! Can't wait for days of future past.

[@DominationVideos]

Preston is right. The other movies felt SUPER cheesy. But First Class felt well made like an ACTUAL film. I can’t believe people say the old movies were better.

[@612curtis]

Every time I watch your videos, I'm always in the mood to go out and see a movie lol but not this time xD its a bit late and the cinema would be closed haha

[@11FrenchFry]

the kid was the best reviewer ;)

[@gyloir]

@THEANnetWork What's your point? In the comics Cyclops is an Original team member in both the older comics and the newer "First class" (Which the film is based around). Just because they had cyclops in the other X-men movies doesn't mean he couldn't be in this one...

[@kungfuedward]

Great review! Can't wait to see it.

[@micalishis]

@TsugaruClan Yes. We do have lots to be negative about but that doesn't mean we have to complain and let everyone know about that negative thing because that just makes the situation even more negative. Also, I don't know if you were being sarcastic or not so I'm just going to take that as a compliment. So thanks!

[@Torbyz]

in x-men 3 it stars out with charls and eric going to see jean grey, and eric and charls are old like charls is bold and eric is old... in this movie eric turn on charls when they are young, how are they friends in x-men 3 in the start when they are not at the end of this movie? please reply. (sorry my grammer and typing is really bad, and so is my english)

[@skywizard3042]

Well I tried tomorrows another day right?

[@1994jct]

oK xmen Was awesome it made me feel pity for magnetto they need this producer and director combo AGAIN it was perfect I cant wait to see The Next I cant wait to see the next. Arent they coming out with a another one in 2012 or 2013? definitly a 10, i dont think it dragged and i have to admit the contunity was a issue but other than that It was awesome.

[@MikeArroyoMAFITNESS]

I don't know If this is possible but, I would love for Christopher Nolan, and James Cameron to direct the next Xmen film. Going a 100 years into the future from this one.

[@coopercalled]

First Class was AMAZING! It definitely needs a sequel, but a good one.

[@joeslickback]

@Hologram1357 I knew Charles Xavier could walked in the wolverine movie which has to be after the timeline of first class but I was confused when I he got paralyzed in that one scene. Thanks for clearing it up for me.

[@aljen181]

6:06 LOL at Grace's face

[@Alexandruioancuza]

Find the kid, do a show with him again! That's what the doctor ordered! :D

[@Shalliw]

@CallMyName211 I agree, I just came from watching it too and I felt that Magneto kinda stole the show but his relationship with Prof X should have been more developed. Those were the parts I enjoyed when they were learning and developing character. Also Beast should have got a little more time after he has his transformation. But all in all I had a great time.

[@xxemir89xx]

Lol at 3:33 the guy in the planet fitness shirt just nods his head to the question but he's thinking "Damn what did this bitch say? Conti-whaa?" lol, then his buddy jumps in to save the day!

[@jaydspace]

also when did origins take place? (first class being 1962) because in origins you had a young emma frost but an old professor x, and then in first class you had an older emma frost, but proffessor x was young. chronologically, how is that possible??

[@jowbee1]

3.59? wasnt angel actually one of the original xmen in the comics?

[@jgantner1]

I love beyond the trailer and this is great and very fun I like the kids review.

[@gulllars]

@RainGlobule agreed. He reminds me of myself at that age, but he has more confidence than i had.

[@zer01ife]

I thought this movie was by far the best, on my top 3 of the year along with rise of the planet...especially Magneto, the actor who played him just made the movie

[@michaelmark5062]

6:06 🤣🤣🤣

[@prkprkprk2]

That's how it's always been. There are simply movies audiences don't care for. Films flop if there are more important movies out or if it simply doesn't look interesting. Money speaks, and if a movie makes money, sequels start to roll in.

[@afg4lifeify]

this movie was really good it wasn't great but really good.... i actually want them to go back to current times for the next movies.... i give the 9 out of 10.....

[@Raventommm]

i have seen the movie yesterday, its good but im asking myself at the end you see profx ( im not gonna tell what you see ) ok you remember?... so go back to one of the other xmen movies and you see profx and magneto -walking- to that little girl Jean here house. Jean in xmen III you remember know? so profX walks and is already much older... and then you see the end of xmen first class thats not right is it? if you know what i think im just asking what you people think or am i mistaking me?

[@redryan305]

Good reviews this time around!

[@gyloir]

@THEANnetWork How would it piss them off? Beast was in the last X-men movie and they acted as though he was new. It wouldn't have been hard at all to have Cyclops in this one and throw in something about him not aging fast or anything, since the characters int eh comics don't really age all that much either.

[@EliaszPimpicki]

this film is life changing!

[@LongGoneVisuals]

I want to see this movie so much

[@goldwaterproductions]

before this movie, i had little to no interest in the xmen. after i saw it, i was blown away. probably the best marvel movie yet. its a tie with this and captain america for me.

[@DevilFan669]

at 2:09 this is not the fourth X-Men movie Grace Randolph this is actually the fifth installment of the X-Men franchise

[@thingsicantfind9545]

Oh ffs it is, standalone wolverine is not the same as an x men movie😂 so obvious what she meant

[@11FrenchFry]

watching this tonight im excited! huge comic guy!

[@davidsfc9]

i give grace's review a 10 =D

[@cloudnin1]

x-men 1 will always be my favorite. so classic

[@meanizzy25]

@CecileW93 i totally agree. i love screech and mystic. (forgive my spelling)

[@micalishis]

I think it's better to go into a movie with low expectations than it is with high expectations. Then if it is bad you know you were right but if it was good then you are wowed. Unfortunately I've got pretty high expectations for this movie.

[@TheMidnightcloud]

looking forward to the movie now

[@RainGlobule]

Ha! That kid was awesome. Smarter than most of the people you interview on here.

[@Hologram1357]

@skateman40 Emma Frost or a girl with her powers is shown as a teenager in Wolverine, which took place in the 70's. Professor X is shown losing his ability to walk in First class but he is shown in Wolverine much older and walking. There are a lot more.

[@danny239]

this movie is the ishh!! i just came home from watching it

[@4eyedphatguys]

it was the guy with the fro's like third appearrance on BTT

[@-BlazeK-]

Best Cameo Ever

[@residentevil808]

the powers is awsome just a little confusing.

[@torchwoodlover12]

I liked wolverine's cameo :)

[@leo_steen]

No opening line this time? :-/

[@shova213]

@maatsudelica True. yes these two played their parts alright. But to say that their performances were better than Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen, ' now that is really pushing it. No way, not even on equal margins.

[@DevinBell]

@Torbyz because when they were creating first class matthew vaughn said forget x3 and xWolverine like they never existed

[@ArielLeoLuna]

that guy with eiring is the same guy in other 2 reviews and said the same thing, he just wanna sound smart lol... its cool... the kid its awesome he have better opinions than the rest

[@originalcoolstud]

@ajfeyth Why didn't they bring baldy back?!

[@SirMrMystery]

@joeslickback in the first movie when jean takes logan's x-rays the claws go from just before the elbow to in-between of his knuckles that means he wouldnt be able to bent his wrists. in origins he is shot in the head & the bullets pierce his metal skull but in the first movie the holes arent there (his healing factor only affects his flesh) who was disappointed when they brought phoenix as a dual personality? if sabertooth had healin in the origins how come he didnt survive the first movie

[@randa9711]

x-men 2 and first class BEST X-MEN MOVIES EVER!

[@umairrrr]

Haha! What an awesome little dude!
