The newest addition to the X-Men franchise came to theaters on the May 23rd, and since then shattered box office competition according to CNN. The movie uses timelines from both the X-Men, from the past and from the present. The movie plot revolves around the protagonists trying to save the future by altering a single event in the past.

The movie stars Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, James McAvoy as Proffersor X, Michael Fassbender as Magneto, Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique, Evan Peters as Quicksilver and many other well known stars such as Halle Berry as Storm. The movie focuses for small amounts of time on many characters, leaving the feeling that the audience does not really know the different characters well enough. All of the actors shine in their own perspective roles and actions, but Peters shines, because while he only appears for a short period of time his performance is the most comical and one of the best performances by anyone in the movie. All of the actors do an incredible job of playing their respective characters which is rare in movies nowadays.

One of the most brilliant aspects of “X-Men days of future past” was its incredible special effects sequences, which look very real and believable. One of the scenes that is magnificently impressive is the scene when Magneto, played by Michael Fassbender, uses his power to surround the white house with a baseball stadium. Another scene that was my favorite is when Quicksilver, played by Evan Peters, helps the main protagonists escape the pentagon with his super speed. This scene shines aboves other because of its comedic nature and its very special feel. The special effects create a lot of comedy in this scene, adding to the greatness of the movie and its use of special effects.

“X-Men Days of Future” Past is the best in the long series of X-men movies produced, combining both timelines of the X-Men movies it is perhaps one of the best movies of the year. The movie contains an excellent array of characters and stunning visual effects which gives it the upper hand as being the best movie of the year. It also wins best movie for its excellent storyline and screenwriting.
