X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)

Director: Bryan Singer. Cast: James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Jennifer Lawrence, Halle Berry, Nicholas Hoult, Anna Paquin, Ellen Page, Peter Dinklage, Kelsey Grammer, Famke Janssen, James Marsden. 131 min. Rated PG-13. Action/Fantasy.

What else can one ask for? The brilliant young film-maker who started it all, directs some of the greatest actors of both past and present generations, in a story that although heavily inspired by a recent Star Trek story-line, doesn't leave much room to look at your watch throughout its entirety. Of course the plot has major time-travel paradox flaws, but I was willing to suspend disbelief, just to watch more Stewart-McKellen interactions. If it wasn't so heavily dependent on the past six X-Men movies (while its best scene involved a new mutant, Quicksilver), this would've been a sure "MoMagic!".
