x-men first class blu-ray

With X-Men First Class finally available on Blu-Ray this week (check out our review here), we got a chance to talk to our favourite teleporting Devil-a-like, Jason Flemyng. Given how many films the man’s been in over a 20 year long career, the hardest part of interviewing him is staying on the subject at hand [...]

X-Men: First Class Blu-ray Review

x-men first class blu-ray

In a year awash with superhero movies a new X-Men film was in danger of being overlooked, or even avoided altogether given the toxic slap of X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men: Origins Wolverine and yet here we are with me telling you that X-Men: First Class is tremendous fun and edges up to X2 [...]

gods behaving badly cover

Well, this could go either one way or the other….. Young UK writer Marie Phillips’ comedy novel about Ancient Greek Gods living in modern-day Hampstead, Gods Behaving Badly, is heading for the big screen, albeit in a different setting.

Alex Gonzales - X-Men: First Class

Last week I got to spend some time with Spanish actor Alex Gonzalez who makes his big Hollywood debut as Riptide tomorrow when Matthew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class is released in the UK. Riptide  is the the tornado-conjuring mutant henchman of chief villain Sebastian Shaw.. In the interview, I got to find out what it [...]

Matthew Vaughn Talks of Next Project

Matthew Vaughn

It’s pretty likely that this article is late. Following on the heels of (at least eight of) our competitors. That’s because we believe that the interesting part of the interview this article comes from is the rest of it. Frankly, reporting about Mark Millar’s next project, one we’ve already written about seems pointless. We like [...]

HeyUGuys recently joined several other film news sites at a round table interview with Matthew Vaughn to talk about all things X-Men: First Class.

X-Men: First Class Review

X-men First Class Magneto

Our review of X-Men: First Class follows, for our comprehensive three-part interview with Matthew Vaughn click here. Cast your mind back to those grossly-misjudged attempts to weave together a Darth Vader origin story, where events, history and character arcs fully ingrained into the previous mythology were awkwardly shoe-horned in to the latter installments, with scant [...]

X-Men First Class UK Poster

Note: These are our initial thoughts and our complete review of the film will be posted on Wednesday, 25th May. Fox’s X-Men franchise has become a little tarnished of late. After two very good movies, that used superpowers as a background to themes of isolation, discrimination and acceptance, we had two less good films, let [...]

X-Men: First Class – Coming Nicely To The Boil

X-Men First Class C

As with seemingly every other tent-pole release of this summer, X-Men: First Class is ramping up its already considerable publicity and marketing campaign, ready to make the last big push for that now all important Big Opening Weekend. We have had teasers, trailers, posters, international trailers, character spots and now a further TV Spot along [...]

X-Men: First Class UK Poster

We are now less than three weeks away from what may just turn out to be the resuscitation of the X-Men movie franchise, and while the road to the release day has been littered with terrible posters what we’ve seen in terms of trailers has been very encouraging. So, let this new clip ease you [...]

Mystique De-Mystified in This New X-Men: First Class Trailer

mystique

We’ve recently seen three new character trailers for Matthew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class and sadly this fourth clip rolls around looking like a poor relation with most of the footage having already excited X-Men fans in the previous videos. Jennifer Lawrence’s Mystique is under the spotlight here and most of you will know where her [...]
