Rating: 4/10 (7 July 2016)

Ivan Ooze returns to the big screen 21 years after his debut, and this time, he can make his eyes go white at the drop of a hat, and not only that, he can help disguise humans as walls and floors too!!'
Worshiped as a god since the dawn of civilisation, immortal Apocalypse becomes the first and most powerful mutant.
Waking after thousands of years, he recruits disheartened Magneto and other mutants to create a new world order.
As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Professor X and Katniss lead a team of young X-Kids to stop their seemingly invincible nemesis from destroying mankind.....
Fox lost their bottle when they showed that one second clip in the trailer. But not only that, they lost out on what could have been the biggest surprise in film this year.
But, they must have doubted the final product, if they thought that that clip would sell more tickets. And rightly so, because Apocalypse is probably one of the biggest disappointments of the summer, which is a shame, because in between the crassness of all the excessive money shots, we have glimpses of genius that helped create one of the biggest comic book franchises of them all.
And this is thanks to Fassbender. Every scene he's in is gold, and he's easily the best thing about this mess. He's easily the character you want to empathise with, despite the fact you know he will turn into Ian Mckellen sixteen years ago.
Issac tries hard to be a convincing villain, but when you look like a strangulated phallus, you are hard pressed to be taken seriously.
The quicksilver scene is a much needed highlight, it's hilarious as well as tense, and the big surprise is an absolute treat, but imagine if you weren't expecting it?
So it's a wasted effort, one of the poorest X films for the simple fact that it has flashes of genius, but decides to go for spectacle instead.
I think enough is enough.
