An outstanding film that does justice to its massive cast. The best X-Men movie, yet!

Rating: 10/10 (25 May 2014)

X-Men: Days of Future Past continues with the adventures of the X-Men. 2023, a dark & hopeless future. Most of the mutants & humans have been wiped out by the Sentinels. Sentinels are dangerous robots that can adapt to any mutant's powers, which make them far more superior. The remaining mutants led by Professor X(Patrick Stewart) & Magneto(Ian McKellen) decide to transport Logan/Wolverine's(Hugh Jackman) consciousness to his younger self, 50 years to the past in 1973, to prevent a cataclysmic event that causes the creation of the Sentinels. They do this, with the help of Kitty Pryde's(Ellen Page) phasing powers. Here, Wolverine meets, Charles Xavier(James McAvoy), Erik Lensherr(Michael Fassbender), Hank/Beast(Nicholas Hoult), Raven/Mystique(Jennifer Lawrence) & a few others. With the help of his fellow mutants, Wolverine has to stop this event by any means necessary, if there is any hope left for the future.
X-Men: Days of Future Past is a brilliant film. There are absolutely no flaws. The special effects are outstanding. Director Bryan Singer returns with a bang! Singer effortlessly maneuvers with his massive star cast. All the major players get equal screen time. Days of Future Past is not just a movie with a lot of spectacular action set-pieces. It is an action movie with an emotional core at its center. The encounter between the two Charles of the movie, is worth the ticket price alone. The performances in the film are awe-inspiring. Hugh Jackman is outstanding as Logan/Wolverine. Jackman portrays a subdued Wolverine this time around, as opposed to the animal-like nature of his character. This is because the situation called for it. Since Wolverine has to unite all the mutants, Jackman can't go ballistic for no reason! James McAvoy is spectacular as Charles Xavier. McAvoy portrays a damaged & scarred Charles, effortlessly! For me, McAvoy is the standout performer of the entire film. Michael Fassbender is amazing as Erik Lensherr. Fassbender shines yet again, as the mutant anti-hero. Jennifer Lawrence is brilliant as Raven/Mystique. Lawrence easily switches from the innocent Raven of First Class, to the vengeful Mystique of Days of Future Past. Halle Berry is impressive as Storm. Nicholas Hoult is great as Hank/Beast. Ellen Page is awesome as Kitty Pryde. Peter Dinklage is awe-inspiring as antagonist, Dr. Bolivar Trask. Shawn Ashmore is good as Bobby/Iceman. Evan Peters is hysterical as Peter/Quicksilver. Josh Helman is effective as Maj. Bill Stryker. Daniel Cudmore, Bingbing Fan, Omar Sy, Adan Canto, Booboo Stewart, Lucas Till & Evan Jonigkeit are impressive as Colossus, Blink, Bishop, Sunspot, Warpath, Havok & Toad, respectively. Mark Camacho is great as President Nixon. Last but definitely not the least, thespians, Patrick Stewart & Ian McKellen are legendary as Professor X & Magneto. X-Men: Days of Future Past is a must watch. Keep up the good work, Bryan Singer. I can't wait for X-Men: Apocalypse.
