X-Men Days of Future Past

The X-Men :D And the younger Xavier is here eee!
Since I am bored and will be writing my novel (just not yet) I shall post another post. Because, why not? This will be a movie review of... eenie meenie minie- X-Men Days of Future Past.

I absolutely loved this movie, and have to say it was the best out of all the X-Men. In case you have no idea what X-Men are, they are people born with extraordinary powers, mostly known as mutants. In this particular one, the future is in disarray and mutants are being hunted down by Sentinels, machines that can shift to adapt to their opponents. Wolverine, a.k.a. Hugh Jackman, is sent into the past by Professor Charles Xavier to '73 to stop what has already happened for them, all because Mystique killed Trask, the creator of the Sentinels. Now, it can be slightly inappropriate, like cursing and the mention of sex, but is still an overall spectacular movie. While Wolverine is sent back to the past, he meets the younger Beast/Hank and Xavier, who is not the man he is presently. The young Xavier is a drunken man still getting over that Mystique left him and he has truly no family. He inserts a medicine into his blood each day that will allow him to walk, but to give up his telepathic powers. Wolverine convinces him otherwise and he, Hank and Xavier set off to stop Mystique's dark path. By first, of course, gaining the alliance of Quicksilver, an amazingly fast mutant, to help free Erik, or Magneto, from the Pentagon. He was accused that he killed President Kennedy since he could control the metal in the bullets so easily. 

So anyway, after that epic scene of Quicksilver helping with the song "Time In A Bottle", tensions rise and trying to get Mystique to stray from her murdering path gets harder. Will the mutants prevent the horrible future that is destined to happen? Maybe, but go watch the movie. Trust me, if you love Marvel and Doctor Who and such, spending your money will be worth it. I mean, I couldn't stop fangirling over it for the entire night xD
