I found the movie to be a wonderful spin on a classic story. It was a pleasure to see such a blockbuster cast set aside their ego for a well built story and not demand more screen time. There will always be complaints about why one member was or wasn't in the story but the team they assembled worked will together. I also enjoy how the franchise tries to create a historical reference by tying the stories to real events such as the Cuban Missile Crisis in the First Class movie. As a whole the story nicely tied the franchise together and presented some intriguing team possibilities for the next installment in the franchise. I can only hope that "Age of Apocalypse" is as good with Singer at the Helm. Can't wait to take the family to go see it when I go again :)
