X-MEN: FIRST CLASS (2011, Fox, PG-13, $30) -- For the origin story of Professor X (James McAvoy) and his steel-controlling pal Magneto (Michael Fassbender), the brain trust behind "The X-Men" franchise has concocted a smart, character-driven entertainment that has more in common with Sean Connery-era Bond movies than with modern, effects-heavy actioners. Sure, the plot bogs down a bit when the soon-to-be-frenemies help defuse the Cuban Missile Crisis, but director Matthew Vaughn ("Kick-Ass") manages to elicit superb performances from his stars while also juggling a mammoth cast of supporting mutants (Kevin Bacon, January Jones, Jennifer Lawrence, Lucas Till). Extras: ten Marvel X-Men digital comics and eight featurettes.
