Review of X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) by Gregory185 — 27 May 2016

Having viewed all of the prior X-Men movies including the spinoffs, this one was fun but left me wanting a tad more. It felt nice having a villain other than Magneto as the central protagonist but with that said, I expected more from Apocalypse.

Also, a few more minutes of his backstory would not have hurt the movie time wise at all. It was also a relief not having Wolverine as the focal point and rather reduced to a cameo/action scene. The acting from the cast is surely not Oscar worthy but they get the job done.

All in all, if you're looking for an enjoyable movie with a decent story then check this out. But like I said, do not expect this to be the greatest comic book movie ever.
