X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) is a superhero film directed by Bryan Singer and based on the Marvel Comics’ X-Men characters. The movie serves as a sequel to both X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) and X-Men: First Class (2011), while also being a follow-up to The Wolverine (2013).

The plot revolves around a dystopian future where mutants are being hunted to near extinction by the Sentinels, powerful robots designed to detect and eliminate mutants. In a desperate attempt to save their kind, the remaining X-Men send Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) back in time to the 1970s. His mission is to prevent an event that will lead to the creation of the Sentinels: the assassination of Dr. Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage) by Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence).

In the past, Wolverine teams up with younger versions of Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) and Erik Lehnsherr/Magneto (Michael Fassbender) to alter the course of history and save both mutants and humans from a grim fate. The film explores themes of hope, redemption, and the possibility of changing one’s destiny.

X-Men: Days of Future Past received critical acclaim for its story, visual effects, and performances, particularly those of Jackman, McAvoy, Fassbender, and Lawrence. It successfully blends elements from the original X-Men trilogy with the new prequel series, offering a compelling and action-packed narrative that appeals to both longtime fans and newcomers to the franchise.
