X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST
Director
Bryan Singer
Cert: 12A, 131 minutes

X-Men: Days of Future Past unites cast members from the first three X-Men films, and the recent prequel, X-Men: First Class.

In a dystopian future where the fearsome robot Sentinels are hunting down all mutants, Charles Xavier / Professor X and Erik Lensherr / Magneto send Logan / Wolverine back in time to try and stop the war before it begins. He must then try and persuade the younger Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) to team up with the younger Erik Lensherr (Michael Fassbender) in order to stop Raven Darkholme / Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence) from assassinating the creator of the Sentinels, Bolivar Trask, which would send her on a dark path and inadvertently create this bad future.
