If you loved Jack the Giant Slayer, try X-Men: Days of Future Past
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Bryan Singer, and they sit in Action / Adventure territory. If that's the register that drew you to Jack the Giant Slayer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What X-Men: Days of Future Past is
A Chinese monastery, a rainy night, a ticking clock. Wolverine stands amidst a desperate group of mutants, their last hope to prevent robotic Sentinels from annihilating them. Bryan Singer's X-Men saga gets a temporal reboot.
