In the dystopian future of 2023, sentient robots known as
Sentinels are exterminating mutants - humans born with superhuman abilities.
They also oppress the human population, as regular humans harbor the genes that
can lead to mutant offspring. A small band of X-Men manage to evade the
Sentinels thanks to the powers of Kitty Pryde, who has the ability to project a
person's consciousness back in time to deliver warnings.
The X-Men rendezvous with Magneto and Professor X in a
monastery in Mongolia. They hatch a plan to send Wolverine's consciousness back
in time to prevent Mystique from murdering Bolivar Trask, the lead designer of
the Sentinels. That assassination caused the chain of events that led to this
dark future. Trask will become a martyr. Mystique will be captured and her
mutant powers will be reverse-engineered and used to create the formidable
Sentinels of the future. Charles advises Logan to seek out his younger self for
aid.
Wolverine wakes up in 1973 in his younger body. He travels
to Charles' mansion, where he encounters the young Hank McCoy and a dishevelled
Charles. Most of his original X-Men are dead, which has left Charles a broken
man. Charles has lost his telepathic powers from taking a serum in order to
allow him walk again.

It started out strong with cool graphics and fantastic moves. Quite intriguing and funny especially when Peter was saving Erik in Pentagon! As the story progresses, it became more humane although they were mutants. I liked it but the ending... somehow didn't expect a happy ending, I was expecting the worst LOL! I guess I'm used to the usual sad and sob endings of Marvels and not this. A really cool movie to watch in the cinema. Can't wait for X-Men: Apocalypse which is scheduled to be released on 27th May 2016.
I missed this, thought there was none after the main credits: In a post-credits scene, people are seen bowing and chanting
to En Sabah Nur as he creates the Egyptian Pyramids while his Four Horsemen
stand in the distance.
