David Sims The Atlantic Sep 22, 2016
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. Go to Full Review
Katey Rich Vanity Fair Jul 13, 2015
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? Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review

A-
While more action would of been ideal, there are some great character moments here that this franchise is known for. Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review
Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Aug 20, 2022
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. Go to Full Review

Hagrid S Apr 26, 2019 Before Logan came out, this was my favorite x-men movie. It's action-packed, funny, and you really feel the emotion of all the characters, especially Logan, young Charles and young Eric. If u haven't seen this movie, watch it See more
Apr 22, 2019 After not seeing an X-Men movie in a while from this point, I was reminded at just how enjoyable the action scenes are. Although they keep it PG, they don't pull any punches (except for Wolverine anyway). The animations and choreography were seamless and fluid. They're experience in making X-Men movies paid off as the fighting became creative and enticing. A captivating scene is Quicksilver's dash through the kitchen, with water droplets still floating in the air. They took an interesting take on how a person with super human speed interacts with the world. Let's not forget the dramatic sound cut into music when he puts on the headphones too (truly remarkable). Since this was a story dealing with time travel between the aftermath of classic X-Men and X-Men: Origins, there are very plenty Marvel Easter eggs strewn about. Although the conflict is insurmountable, there are a few story points in the movie that don't add up or highly invested into without much interest in return. Also, the abrupt ending was more than cheesy, as the story is brought back to its "golden" days. Other than the plot, this film will definitely entertain action lovers. See more
Luke R Apr 21, 2019 Was a very enjoyable movie, my only problem with it is that it messed up the franchise.
Anakin W Apr 4, 2019 8/10 interesting albeit comic-y
Ron G Apr 3, 2019 I didn't like this was quite as much as First Class but it was still very enjoyable. I liked the Fix-it aspect of the film, particularly the raw emotion between Charles and Erik due to their feelings of betrayal at the climax of FC. See more
Draco W Mar 20, 2019 Fassbender is precious and a great casting choice to boot. this has to be the best of the Xmen series short of Logan. We want more like this. See more
