'X-Men: Days of Future Past,' the latest installation in the famous superhero saga, has garnered high ratings from movie critics with a combination of Wolverine films, original X-Men movies, and the old-school First Class remake.


Hugh Jackman, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Peter Dinklage, Jennifer Lawrence, Ian McKellen, and Patrick Stewart all did wonders in the film with their action scenes with anti-mutant robots and Wolverine leading the team in their efforts to defeat the robots' inventor.

Movie critics gave it an overall high review rating, according to The Telegraph. Take a look at the latest X-Men reviews below.

Kevin Maher of The Times praised the interesting roles of Nicholas Hoult and other supporting players, and the pacing of the movie. He gave X-Men a star rating of 4 out of 5.

On the other hand, Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian described the film as "delirious, crazy fun" with sprinkles of romance. However, the time-travel factor created a "muddled" setting, thus he gave it 3 out of 5 stars.

Meanwhile, The New York Times which was represented by A O Scott, did not give a star rating but conceded with Bradshaw's remark of the film's muddled and "overelaborate" plot.

'Days of the Future Past' got almost everything right, according to Peter Travers of The Rolling Stone.

Giving X-Men 3.5 out of 4 stars, he said the character overload may cause confusion for the newbies, but it sure gave the audience "an exhilarating rush."

According to Nick de Semlyen of Empire, X-Men deserves a rating of 4 out of 5 because he saw it as the best X-Men franchise since the second sequel.

Lastly, Kevin Harley of Total Film gave X-Men 4 out of 5 stars because it had hit its target as the "most ambitious X-flick" so far. Harley added that the sequel could be instrumental to the continuity of the franchise on silver screen.
