Der kostümaffine Joe Wright (Atonement, Pride and Prejudice) versucht sich in Pan an einer Originstory des bekannten fliegenden Kindes, das nie erwachsen werden wollte. Helfen soll ihm dabei eine starke Besetzung inklusive Hugh Jackman und Rooney Mara, doch nicht einmal das hilft wirklich.

This week the big release is X-Men: Days of Future Past and as indicated in our german review the movie is absolutely worth seeing on the big screen.
But what if you have never seen an X-Men movie?
With

  • 3 original movies (X-Men, X2: X-Men United, X-Men: The Last Stand),
  • one prequel (X-Men: First Class)
  • and 2 spin offs (X-Men Origins: Wolverine, The Wolverine)

So in this article we have compiled different approaches in order to be able to enjoy this newest X-Men installment. Because, let’s face it, X-Men: Days of Future Past is not a movie for rookies.

Nach dem überraschend soliden X-Men: First Class wagt sich das mit frischen Leben angehauchte X-Men Franchise an das bislang größtes Projekt. Days Of Future Past vereint dank Zeitreise-Plot die Wolverine-Truppe aus den alten (frühe 2000er) Filmen mit den jungen Wilden des Quasi-Reboots. Dem Konzept nach zu urteilen konnte man nur ein ultimatives Fiasko oder aber einen Volltreffer erwarten.

But Valjean can never rest easy for Javert (Russell Crowe) is always on his heels reminding him that once a criminal always a criminal. In the eyes of Javert a man like Valjean deserves no second chance and will always be a thief.

Real Steel is about a world where boxing is no longer a sport for humans. Instead we now have two robots hitting each other in the ring. Amidst all this CGI we find Hugh Jackman – a disillusioned ex-boxer who now remote controls robots for fairs. He also likes to gamble and tends to make a load of debts with all the wrong people.

Enter his son who he now has to spend two months even though he doesn’t want to. When the son finds a robot on a junkyard he is convinced that this robot can be programmed to win a lot of money.
