Storyline
Sentinels, robots that were created for the purpose of hunting down
mutants were released in 1973. 50 years later the Sentinels would also
hunt humans who aid mutants. Charles Xavier and his X-Men try their best
to deal with the Sentinels but they are able to adapt and deal with all
mutant abilities. Charles decides to go back in time and change things.
He asks Kitty Pryde who can send a person's consciousness into the
person's past to send him but she can only send someone back a few weeks
because if she sends someone back further it could harm them. So Logan
decides to go back himself because he might be able to withstand it. So
Charles tells him that it's Mystique who's responsible because when she
learned about the Sentinels she sought out Bolivar Trask the man who
created them and killed him. She would be caught and studied and her
ability to change was somehow added to the Sentinels which is why they

Days
of Future Past continues the work of X2 as genre-defining. I have to
classify it as a work of art/comic book pulp fiction. The characters,
effects, and story are outstanding. Everything in this movie is
exceedingly better in the sequel then even the first two films and First
Class. Like X2, the acting is superb and the dialogue is rich. Every
character feels believable. No cartoonish villains, every side of the
issue is presented by people who believe they are the ones who are in
the right and the underlying message of tolerance and bigotry only add
to the depth of this film. What's better then its predecessor X3 in
every way. It restores the sense of epic adventure and grand-scale
storytelling that's been absent from far too many of most alleged
blockbusters.
This film is far more sophisticated and has a
better story than any X-Men movie to date. Here, the characters
previously introduced but under used are utilized in a comprehensive and
cohesive manner, and the newly introduced characters are blended in
seamlessly with the story. The music is very good as is the special
effects. The budget clearly hit the screen fully and there are truly
some amazing sequences to behold. The cast-selection is still perfect.
Overall, this is one of the best genre films of all-time.
