This is the most recent and the most successful of all the X-Men series. It is a bit confusing as it has Wolverine's (Hugh Jackman) consciousness going back in time 50 years to change the future, because the future is just death for the X-Men as the result of the development of an army of Sentinals which hunt down and kill the X-Men. Wolverine recruits an army including younger versions of Xavier (James McAvoy), Magneto (Michael Fassbender). Colossus (Daniel Cudmore) and Beast (Nicholas Hoult). The mission is to secure Raven/Mystique's ( Jennifer Lawrence) blood so it can't be used to enhance the Sentinals.
This movie rocks during the action scenes. However at times it gets a bit too bogged down with going back and forth between the past and the future. It also deals with personal demons and that gets a bit slow.
True to form, Magneto is focused on beating the humans, and this drive gets him into lots of trouble. It takes someone changing course, to get them out of this trouble.
