Do not misread the connotations in the title X-Men: First Class. "First class" is a phrase which here does not mean "the best, the finest, the most luxurious," nor does it signify "the part of the plane with complimentary cocktails and room to stretch out." Take the phrase literally. In strangely oxymoronic style, the studio's promotional materials claim X-Men: First Class "charts the epic beginning (sic) of the X-Men saga," the first group of students to graduate from Professor X's school for reluctant super-heroes. "Who knew an "epic beginning" was possible? In their salad days, Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr, ultimately sworn mortal enemies, were the best of buds, experimenting with and testing their newly discovered powers, preparing to join other Mutants to prevent Armageddon. X-Men: First Class documents their nasty break-up. They could not be "just friends.""Although the men allegedly star in X-Men: First Class, the so-called "supporting actresses" threaten to steal the show. January Jones of "Madmen" fame plays Emma Frost, villainesse supreme, co-conspirator with Kevin Bacon as Sebastian Shaw, criminal mastermind. More notably, Jennifer Lawrence—yes that Jennifer Lawrence, low-keyed "It Girl" from Winter's Bone and the Oscars' red carpet—plays Mystique, aka Raven Darkholme, shape-shifting mutant. By film's end, girl power may trump super-powers.

Where the Wild Things Are centers around a boy named Max, who lives with his mother and older sister. He dreams, like all the boys, but his fantasies are not interesting to anyone. And after the quarrel, he runs away, or rather floats on the boat at the oncoming adventure. Once on the island boy becomes king, leader of the gang of monsters. What are these monsters? Let's face it. First one is in love, second one is not self-confident too much, and the third one is silent and introverted, the fourth is hot-tempered and nervous. These fabulous are really turn out to be like humans. They love and hate. Spike Jonze filmed a remarkable and very metaphorical tale. He is absolutely devoided of the inherent pathos of the genre. There is no notations, no unnecessary speculations. It's strange, but very good and intelligent movie. And Max returns home to her mother.

Vincenzo Natali's "Splice" is a kind of clever scientific horror about two geneticists who created the monster mix of girl, reptile and the ostrich. "Splice" is not rolled into something too much nerdy and viewers remain involved to a movie plot that makes them cling to the arm of the chair, putting thoughts on lofty matters before leaving the theater. Natali rushed to the scene Chimera in the days of "Cuba", but 90s he had neither the money nor the technical means. Now, there is an opportunity to implement any plan, and with them came to realize: and it is not in favor of CGI industry - just look at what happened to Gilliam and Burton. Natalie is not concerned with: he has bright enough ideas without a CGI. "Splice" justifies tons of meaningless computer graphics that have been poured on us for the last dozen years.

Transcendence is a serious science fiction film which explores questions of mortality, technological overreach, and responsibility. Johnny Depp plays Dr. Will Caster, a dying A.I. researcher, who transfers his emotions and personality to an A.I. interface with the help of his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall). This experiment bestows near-omnipotent power on The Will Caster A.I., but as one might expect with any person who has died and been resurrected, Dr. Caster is no longer quite the same man. As Dr. Caster's quest for knowledge morphs into a quest for power, it dawns on his fellow researchers that they may be helpless to stop him. While Transcendence received mixed reviews, the film's distinctive visuals were widely praised, as well as its willingness to confront major questions of our time.
