Now Showing on Cable: “Bridesmaids”

Making its Home Box Office debut this weekend was last year’s smash comedy, “Bridesmaids”.

Premiering this weekend on Cinemax was last year’s superhero epic, “X-Men: First Class”.

Recasting the lead roles, “First Class” turns back the clock to the 1960s, and tells the tale of the origin of the X-Men, the formation of the friendship between Charles Xavier and Eric Lensherr, and their battle against Sebastian Shaw.

Released in a year which saw several high profile superhero movies, “X-Men: First Class” found a way to elevate itself above its contemporaries and surprisingly emerge as the best superhero flick of 2011.
