Mutant prowess and crunchy screenplay

Rating: 8/10 (24 May 2014)

With an ensemble cast and such a brobdingnagian doze of X-men, Days of Future Past works wonders with the screenplay and the screen time that all x-men share. The X-men, ushering in their mutant traits to complement the visual effects, go berserk fighting their invincible nemesis The Sentinels. The action, neither too boisterous nor mundane is a tempting and titillating. Hugh Jackman and Jennifer Lawrence anchor the plot cogently. Its a Mystique/Raven cum Wolverine show that centrifuges an entertaining solution of thrill as events in the past are mutilated to save the future and render it secure. The constant fear of the future being delved into darkness keeps up the interest. Magneto's mettle outshines. All in all the ride back to future is a compelling one, joyous and enjoyable !
