Good effects and action but terrible story

Rating: 4/10 (28 January 2019)

The X-Men movies for me have always been a disappointment. I love the X-Men and the Marvel / DC Universes however, the story lines for the movies always left me somewhat cold.
The storylines were 2 dimensional and basically lacking any depth.
I am all for making improvements when transitioning from comic book to cartoon to big screen movie - however the storylines in the cartoons had more depth and interest then the movies.
OK maybe there are limitations when transitioning from cartoons to big screen movies I get that - but there is no excuse when the film makers tone down and over simplify the storylines or in the case of the X-Men change the storylines completely into something that just lacks substance.
