X-Men Volume 1
SCORE: 69
We never mind going back and reviewing
older movies and shows here at Family Friendly Gaming. With reviews of
X-Men Volume 3, and X-Men Volume 4 already on the books I decided it
might be fun to complete off this series. The best place to start is the
beginning - X-Men Volume 1. Viewers are introduced to the mutants and
the world they live in.
The older technology used in X-Men Volume 1 can be laughable at times.
Especially when there is talk of VCRs. The whole violence against
mutants seems a bit overdone to me. Christians can relate since there
has been centuries of hatred, and violence against them. Sadly X-Men
Volume 1 gets it backwards and makes people of faith to be the bad guys.
But then the X-Men franchise has been co-opted by redefiners in recent
years.
The religious belief of evolution runs rampant in X-Men Volume 1.
Another sad testament to the era in history this show comes from. As
well as how far the evolution zealots will go to spread their message
and their attempts to destroy any diversity from their viewpoint.
The sixteen episodes in X-Men Volume 1 are a good value if you can get
these DVDs for ten dollars or less. The volume reads as one long story
line. There are story arcs here and there. I like how one bad guy steps
aside for another one for a few episodes. Numerous villains are shown in
X-Men Volume 1.
There is cartoon violence in X-Men Volume 1. Characters use their
various powers to attack and hurt one another. Rarely do they try to
kill each other though. The writing is fantastic as multiple groups will
interact to achieve different goals during different campaigns. This
kept the outcome up in the air, and kept the viewer interested.
