X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST: Watch The Japanese Teaser

X-MEN: FIRST CLASS Review

X-Men: First Class is a total pleasure, hitting all the action beats we've come to expect from big-budget studio productions, and adding much that makes it unique, at least among the sorry crop of sequels and prequels and mutated...

Hollywood Grind: How Matthew Vaughn Saved a Franchise
