This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It's clearly the best of all the X-Men films and the whole franchise including the Hugh Jackman Wolverine Stand-Alone movies and Ryan Reynolds appearances as Deadpool. This is a nearly perfect crossover of the old X-Men trilogy, the new bunch of mutants and at the same time this film deletes every mistake made by X-Men: The Last Stand. It's just sad to see that it's Wolverine who is going back in time and not Kitty Pryde. It would've been a perfect opportunity to give her a bigger role here. But it still works. Hugh Jackman has great chemistry with Michael Fassbenders Magneto and James McAvoys Charles Xavier. Also big parts for Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique (here way better than in First Class), Nicholas Hoult as Beast and a small but scene stealing moment for this incarnation of Quicksilver played by Evan Peters (and by Aaron Johnson in The Avengers: Age of Ultron). It's a fun ride. It's a time travel movie well made. It's handling a lot of characters very well. It's entertaining from start to finish.

Credit ending titles also stated it uses 3d conversion too.The important thing it wasn't totally fake 3d,Since shooting 3d can be problems ,with the heaviness of the cameras and parallax problems and the desire for fluidity in film,there's gong to be scenes shot flat with conversion In mind too.I first saw the x men in the early 2000.I did not know that it was Hugh Jack man that played wolverine until recently .That strange hair-do has thrown confusion to his face.Now taking a time journey is impossible,but the x men and other mutants are under siege by huge Robots that were created by crooked Little shrimp,played by peter Dinklage,back in 1973.These robots are killing mutants and humans and have lost the war.Raven ,one of the mutant members ,played by Jenifer Lawrence,has turned the wrong way and has taken a time journey to kill the shrimp for killing her friends,in the future.Erik Lehnher,played by Michael Fassbender is a mutant but want to do it by himself than follow the group to stop the robots in the past.With the leader By both McClellan and Stewart ,who is physically disabled, they get Wolverine ,played by Hugh Jackmen,to take a astral projected journey back to 1973,without the sexual paraphernalia of the time ,included in the back drop.To try to persuade Raven to be more constructive rather than revengeful.He ends up meeting A young Patrick Stewart ,before he got paralyzed ,now played by James Mcavoy,and a new character call the beast,played by Nicholas Hoult.The rest of the x members in the future ,played by Omar Cy and Ellen Page and Halle Berry ,Booboo Stewart ,have to hold the fort until the future can be changed .Some times Raven disguises her self as Rogue,played by Anna Panquin.Richard Nixon is played as a good guy ,we all know he wasn't.In this fantasy it seems that mutants existed in the 70's and now there was a desire to get rid of them.Excellent special effects .Good performance from Jennifer Lawrence ,McAvoy, Jackman,the sets ,like China in the future and those Robots,it's worth the watch on Blu-ray 3D or 2D and DVD version flat.12/28/17

I don't want to give much away, but of all of the X-Men ever made, this is one of my favorites!The additional cast was concerning, but overall actually added to this film.Of course the rest of the usual cast were on point as usual, but what made this movie different than the others, was not the battle of good vs evil, but the timeline differences and the new cast's involvement.A great addition to the X-Men franchise, and a 9/10 from me!

While I liked Days of Future Past, in the end I felt a bit disappointed - not by the film itself, which was fine, but by the realisation that it was made as a rebooting vehicle.The story is fairly easy to simplify down to "X-Men meet Terminator", but the action scenes are good, some are even great, the main cast is doing a good job (James McAvoy for example seemed to me to be doing a better job than at First Class), while the (shorter than we'd like) presence of Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen is always superb. Peter Dinklage makes a fine villain, although his role could be bigger as well.The usual problem with this sort of time travel films is, ironically, the predictability. It was a particularly easy guess that the future heroes would die, but the mission would succeed, so no harm done. Which makes the death scenes of heroes like Storm or the parting words between X and Magneto lose all of their dramatic value, and work simply as a way to say goodbye not to the characters, but to the actors. Which brings us to the second issue - this may be just a personal quirk, but I do not appreciate alternate timelines. I realise it's a very common comic-book trope, but it seriously bothers me to have a film end by telling me "you know what, all the previous X-Men films never happened! Jean is alive, everyone is happy, hooray!". While I understand the reasoning, both dramatically and from a marketing point of view ('we want to make films with the new actors, because these ones are old' or something) I find it dishonest, cheap, and more importantly, subversive to all the previous movies.So all in all, I liked the film, but would much prefer it if it had somehow set its divergence point at some point after the Last Stand - though I will admit I don't see how they could do that AND include the new cast.
