I'm still not sure why people think Days of Future Past is so amazing.
Its riddled with plot holes, an overly simplistic storyline, was strangely set 10 years later and yet no one has aged a single day, started the whole "Mystique is the most special important mutant ever" trend, and that's not even touching on all of the mountain of continuity issues.
It pretty much had all the same problems as X-Men Apocolypse, just not as obvious.

Fassbender was great in it. Can't stand Lawrence anymore.

I enjoyed DOFP up until that godawful anticlimatic ending and then there's the lack of any good action.
Rogue Cut lol.
Wolverine can be as muscular as he wants but he was still best in the first when he was wimpy looking.
First Class was indeed good but who were those mutants again, tornado guy.
X2 is decent, who can forget that showdown between wheelchair Xavier vs wheelchair Stryker kid, that was super thrilling lol.

People who don't like DOFP truly puzzle me. Such a superbly crafted film with some of the best displays of raw emotion in a CBM to date.
McAvoy's scene with Stewart is riveting (as are most of the scenes in the picture). Quicksilver's money shot is ****ing brilliant.
DOFP obliterates everything that's come outta the MCU. From performances to cinematography to effects shots to pacing to storytelling to editing to sound mixing to score. Everything.

Except for all the major plot elements in the movie which make zero sense and are never explained.
How does a serum that makes Beast look human fix a spinal cord injury?
How did Magneto reprogram those drones to obey his voice using freaking train tracks?
If Beast is able to turn human at will using the serum he developed, why wasn't he using it in X3?
Why is it that Professor X isn't able to just use that serum in more responsible doses in order to walk again?
Why is using too much of it even a bad thing? And what is too much? Is there any reason for him to use the amount he is? What is he getting from it? I get that it was supposed to be a metaphor for heroin addiction, but since it isn't a psychotropic then I don't even get why he is addicted to it.
Why does Mystique transform in front of everyone and yet no one notices?
How is it that 10 years have passed since First Class yet everyone (Professor X included) still looks like a teenager?
If Wolverine is changing the past in real time (as in time is still passing in the present while he is flashing back to the past), then why isn't the future changing with every second he spends there?
If this stuff all happened in the 70s, why wasn't there any mention of Sentinals in the original X-Men movies?
Why does Kitty Pride suddenly have the ability to send people back in time?

Exactly.

hmmm yesh, quite.
Pretty sure Mags controlled the Sentinels because he put metal through their bodies. Don't remember or care if I'm wrong or not.

Yes, he did do that. In which case it is reasonable to assume that with the metal he was controlling them like puppets.
But he seems to be literally in control of their computer functions. They adjust their targeting (they ignore Beast when he injects himself with the serum) and respond to verbal commands. Like he reprogrammed them or something.

This was my biggest problem with the whole story. Despite that I did enjoy DOFP.
