If you're going to start watching all of the X-Men movies, First Class is absolutely the place to start. It's not burdened by any additional continuity, and for a short amount of time, was thought to potentially be its own new series.

The majority of X-Men: First Class takes places in the 1960s, about 10 years before anything else in the X-Men movie timeline. The film focuses on the first group of mutants Xavier trains, and meeting Magneto.

Looking at the future movies in the series, this movie sets up a ton of contradictions. Many of them revolve around the age of characters, how Cerebro was built, and when Professor Xavier lost the use of his legs. But, if you're starting these movies as a whole, this is a brief moment of clarity before everything falls apart.
