X-Men: Days of Future Past (3D)

The X-Men in the past and future must fight for survival against the Sentinel threat. Princess Kitty Pryde tells Wolverine-Ken-Obi "you're our only hope" and sends Logan's consciousness back to the 70's to alter mutant history in this action-packed, mind and time bending sequel that will tickle the fancy of X-Men movie fans. Die hard Marvel addicts may cringe at the liberties taken to please the movie fans. Non-comic book readers may find it hard to identify some of the new movie X-Men characters, but you don't need to know their names to enjoy their powers. It's a great storyline that may be predictable, but there still may be some surprises in store for you. Wolverine and Mystique are key to the plot that weighs heavier in the past. At the end of the credits, look for a clue to the next mutant villain, who will be unfamiliar to most.
