It's good... but a bit confusing...

Rating: 8/10 (9 March 2017)

It's a very good stand-alone film, or if linked to the generally darker tone of the other Wolverine films. The only issue is that it doesn't mesh with the rest of the X-Men timelines, but it doesn't do enough to split itself off from them either.
If it had been the very first X-Men franchise-based film, I think it would've been far better to me, as I didn't have the memory of the two (or 3?) other time lines. And this doesn't quite fit into any of them. But with the two lead actors being who they are, it's rather hard to take them out of those roles in the other films.
I suppose it's best to go into this and firmly tell yourself, "It's another alternate timeline, like the first "Hulk" movie and first 3 "Spiderman" films and has NOTHING to do with the rest of the franchise." Then it might not lead to head-scratching of what exactly led to this place in the film's melancholic future.
