Review: X-Men: Days of Future Past (Spoilers)

Dave Clark ·

In the past I've been very critical of the X-Men films. I'm close to this franchise, because as a young person it was my first real comic series that I fell in love with. There were the comics, the animated series, and the toys. I loved the X-Men and at a young age I couldn't get enough of them. Then as I got older, they announced the release of the first X-Men film. I could not wait to see it and it was amazing. Then X2 came out and it was even better than the first, but it was downhill from there. X-Men: The Last Stand left a very sour taste in my mouth. And it was all made worse with the release of X-Men Origins: Wolverine even though I finally got to see my favorite mutant, Gambit, hit the big screen. I was given hope, however, when X-Men: First Class came out. I enjoyed it a great deal and couldn't wait for more films with these characters and actors. So, now we have X-Men: Days of Future Past.

Yet Another X-Men: Days of Future Past Trailer

Ok, so here's the 1,000th...and final, X-Men: Days of Future Past trailer to be released before the actual film does. It feels like there's been a new one almost every week for the past seven years. Could be that I've been paying extremely close attention to this film, or it could be that Fox's Marketing Department has lost their minds. Either way, it looks great (Quicksilver's silly outfit aside) and this trailer makes me really excited to see this film. I do have a fear that Bryan Singer has loaded up too many mutants for this film and there won't be enough screen time to see my favorites (GAMBIT! WHERE IS GAMBIT?!) but I'll keep the faith until I actually see the film.
