Possibly the best comic book movie yet

Rating: 10/10 (24 June 2014)

I was somewhat unsure of what to expect when I went to watch this newest installment of the X-Men franchise. While the X-Men franchise has produced some remarkable films (like the original X-men) many have left me leaving the theater with a rather large dose of disappointment. After researching X-Men: Days of Future Past I couldn't help but feel a certain amount of optimism.
This movie absolutely delivered! Right from the very beginning the viewer is launched into a world of dread and hopelessness. All of mutant kind has been driven to the point of extinction. With their options dwindling the X-Men decide to send on of their members to 1973 in order to try and undo the present.
Everything in the film is well done. The visuals are fantastic. The graphics are state of the art. The storyline is brilliant. There was never a point during the movie where I felt I knew what was going to happen next. I was very happy to see Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen reprise their roles as Charles Xavier and Magneto. They have truly brought their characters to life in a very real way.
If you are looking for film that has it all then this is a must see. From start to finish you will quite literally be left on the edge of your seat. In my opinion this film sets a very high standard of what a comic book movie should be.
