It is especially impressive that Days of Future Past is a success; a film this gooey and complex, with such business-minded scope, should not feel like a real movie at all.

In an age when more and more movies just feel like stepping-stones toward the next, bigger things, is it so much to ask that it be a good movie all on its own?

3.5/5

I guess I am a sucker for these sort of time travel films, travelling back in time to change the course of history.

While more action would of been ideal, there are some great character moments here that this franchise is known for.

4/5

Effectively united some of the elements that X-Men fans had been waiting years to see, though doesn't quite due justice to the source material and squanders the good will of what X-Men: First Class earned the series.

4/5

It’s start is a bit jarring, the future Sentinels look pretty generic, and I could list a few other nitpicks. But in terms of story, storytelling, and sheer entertainment, the movie scores where it counts.

X-Men: Days of Future Past brings huge stakes and a massive cast, but it trades comic book fun for a grim, overly serious tone. The Quicksilver scene is an absolute highlight and the action lands well, but the heavy time-travel plot holds it back from being truly enjoyable.

Greetings from Lithuania. "X-Men: Days of Future Past" (2014) is very solid flick, with a big budget and even bigger stars it delivers what it promises. It's a very good X-Men movie, but for me, not as good as "X-Men: First Class". Settings, special effects are great, you can clearly see that lots of effort was put into making of this movie. Don't have to say anything more actually. Acting was good by everyone. I liked the overall idea of this movie that clearly borrow from "Terminator" series. I liked how a screenplay managed to incorporate actors from both X-Men universes - past and new into a single story. Not many movies manage to do so that well. Overall, 9/10 for "X-Men: Days of Future Past", a very good, entertaining X-Men movie with one slow motion standout sequence which you will want to see many times. Great film.

It's really cool to see mutants from different time on screen in the same movie. There was no lull in this movie. It's entertaining from start to finish.

Es la mejor pelicula de los X MEN? La verdad es una pregunta que no puedo contestar, creo que es la pelicula mas entrañable por el contesto que hay en la historia y cada personaje tiene un desarrollo que me gusto pero decir que es la mejor pelicula no lo sabría.
