- One Thing We Can All Agree On? January Jones Needs to Learn How to Act: Here are two different pieces on X-Men: First Class (both contain some spoilers) - one about the muddled morality and awkwardly handled racial politics of the movie and the other examines Magneto as a critique of Israel. I don't really buy that latter argument, but it is interesting and worth mulling over.
