'X-Men: First Class' a cut above the average superhero film
Much as I enjoyed 'X-Men: First Class', Fox's exuberant prequel/reboot (preboot?) of the fabled Marvel Comics series, I was a bit disoriented by its opening sequence.
A Mengele-esque Nazi scientist, played by Kevin Bacon, attempts to coax a terrified young Erik Lensherr, a death camp inmate, into demonstrating his newly discovered mutant powers.
