Top 10 Best X-Men: First Class Characters

X-Men: First Class gives you a superhero story fueled as much by clashing personalities and divided loyalties as mutant abilities. You get to watch friendships form, rivalries sharpen, and young mutants struggle with fear, ambition, identity, and the temptation to choose very different paths.

Set against the tension of the Cold War, the film lets you see familiar figures before they fully become the heroes and villains you know. That younger perspective gives you room to understand why certain alliances matter, why betrayals sting, and why personal choices can be just as dangerous as any superhuman power.

The Top Ten

Magneto

Magneto for me. He's had the hardest life and had to watch his mother be killed in front of him. He was also treated like a lab rat. I would be angry after years and years as well. He has a good reason for revenge (although revenge is never the answer). His ability to move metal objects is cool too.

The leader and founder of the Brotherhood of Mutants and one of Professor X's best friends, until conflicts of opinion create a rivalry between them and their teams.

The last part was so cool! He turned the rockets around, and he fought with Professor X. Then he decided to create the Brotherhood of Mutants.
Professor X

Professor X is often compared to Martin Luther King Jr., while Magneto is likened to Malcolm X. In the comic books, Erik (Magneto) frequently shifts between ideologies, going back and forth on what he believes and how he plans to achieve it.
Mystique

A shape-shifting mutant and Charles Xavier's childhood friend.

J-Law did her justice.
Emma Frost

A telepath who can also change her body into diamond form. She is also a member of the Hellfire Club.
Sebastian Shaw

A scientist and the leader of the Hellfire Club, a secret society bent on world domination. Shaw is a mutant who can absorb kinetic and radiated energy and redirect it.
Beast

A former scientist and political activist who transformed into a frightening-looking mutant in an attempt to cure himself, but remains kind at heart.

First of all, there is nothing wrong with Beast.
Havok

A mutant with the ability to absorb energy and discharge it as powerful blasts.
Banshee

A mutant capable of ultrasonic screaming, which he uses in various ways, including as a means of flight.
Riptide

A mutant with the ability to create powerful whirlwinds from his hands.
Moira

She should be higher.
