Remember the X-Men movie right before this one? You know, the one about the origins of Wolverine? I don’t. My guess is that Hugh Jackman doesn’t either. If he does, I can almost be sure that he’s at least trying. “X-Men: First Class”, directed by Matthew Vaughn, is a prequel that shows us how the presence of mutants became known to humans, and how they responded to each other’s impressions. This can also be identified as a 130-minute apology to “Wolverine.”
The film’s first minutes are located in a nasty Nazi prison camp. The mother of young Eric is separated from him. He gets angry, and the steel gate between him and his mother seem to respond. (It’s moving by itself!) This odd occurrence is immediately noticed by Sebastian Shaw, who later succeeds in forcing the power out of Eric by killing his mother. Once again in anger, Eric causes all sorts of metals to hurl through the air. The wooden chairs sigh in relief.
