X-Men: Days of Future Past

I was hoping Days of Future Past would patch up the direction that The Last Stand and First Class had taken. And to my satisfaction, it did. One of my main issues with TLS and FC along with formulaic story/screenplay was the directionless acting. It's as if the actors did not know what to do with the direction the films were taking. Michael Fassbender makes a much better magneto here than in FC. It's not that his acting was bad in FC, it's that the magneto character's direction was lost (along with most characters, with the exceptions of Xavier and Mystique). Perhaps it's the fact that Bryan Singer is back on board, but all of the characters personas and acting seem to be back on point which they (coincidentally?) were in the Bryan Singer Directed original X-men. The age of Apocalypse is nigh.
