"What if, whatever we
do can't be changed? What if Raven will kill Trask anyway? What
if that is who she is?" –
Hank McCoy
Why watch this? This
time travel film is a brilliant chance to get the old and new
casts together one time.
Plot Summary: In a
bleak future where mutants face extinction from relentless
Sentinel robots, the X-Men devise a plan to send Wolverine back
in time. His mission is to prevent a pivotal event in 1973 that
sparks the Sentinel program and a war that decimates both
mutants and the humans who help them. To succeed, Wolverine must
unite the younger Professor X and Magneto, convince Raven Darkhölme (aka
the shape-shifting Mystique) to alter her actions, and
ultimately change the course of history to secure a future where
mutants and humans can coexist.
Dad's Preview:
The massive
strength of this film is the combination of the original X-Men
line-up and their younger counterparts. It's fun and really
interesting to watch the plot enfold. I sure wanted to see
Rebecca Romijn as Mystique one more time, but it was not to be.
