About this movie

OSCAR® Winner Jennifer Lawrence*, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy lead a powerhouse cast in director Bryan Singer’s extraordinary follow-up to X-Men: Days of Future Past. After thousands of years, Apocalypse – the world’s first and most powerful mutant – has awakened to find a world led by humans. Intent on cleansing the Earth of mankind, he recruits a group of mutants to create a new world order. In a desperate race to save humanity, Professor X (McAvoy) leads the young X-Men in an epic showdown – against an unstoppable enemy – that will determine the fate of the world.

A passable run-around I suppose; however, possibly the weakest entry in the X-Men series which is saying something. There are a few scenes that are actually well done, if a little overblown, but enjoyable nonetheless This isn't enough to save a movie who's plot just kind of shambles from one thing to another without much motivation on the part of the characters. Stuff just seems to happen. I've been unimpressed with superhero movie baddies for the most part lately anyway, but this is particularly uninspired dross. Jennifer Lawrence in particular comes off like she's just calling it in.

Just get a Netflix membership for 7.00 a month or pay 5.00 for a one time rental. Ive seen 7+ movies on the front page that are also on netflix. 7.99/month compared to 35.00 for one time rentals. Can literally watch 90% of the movies on here for 7.00 a month. Rip off. These things should be .99 a piece

Fun film. Not much in terms of story line... Apocalypse wakes up and brings the motha fu@Kin ruckus while X-Men (even though it includes women) try to stop him. My advice is, next time you try to pick 4 of the most powerful mutants Mr. Apocalypse, please pick someone more powerful than some dude with white feathery wings as a superpower. Sincerely, The humble followers of En Sabah Nur
