Another solid X-Men movie

Rating: 7/10 (27 May 2016)

...For a long time i felt like X2: X-Men United was the best comicbook movie i had ever seen, but both Marvel and Matthew Vaughn have raised the bar significantly, so now I feel like Bryan Singer tends to 'play it safe'. And that's what he does here with X-Men: Apocalypse.
It is a good film. James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender continue to be a tremendous Xavier-Magneto tandem, and Oscar Isaac is a solid villain. Evan Peters' Quicksilver steals the show (again), but Sophie Turner's Jean Grey is a surprisingly intriguing character. They handle Jean well.
It is also nice to finally get Scott Summers on the team, as he is the quintessential X-Man.
That being said, Olivia Munn is underwhelming as Psylocke, and they really waste Archangel.
Jennifer Lawrence really mails this one in, but I feel like there just isn't much left for them to do with Mystique, outside of killing her (which they SHOULD do.)
Overall a solid film, and worth watching if you are an X-Fan.
