Joke all you want, but I gotta say, to me the movie was as good as Civil War but in a different way. Though some of the action scenes could have used some work a little. Bryan Singer seems to not be on the Russo Brothers kind of level for that, but he did try. Other set pieces though, OMFG so good.

It genuinely makes me excited for them to do another X-Men movie. The push for a better comic feeling is definitely there. Even apocalypse was nowhere near as bad as people kept saying it was from the early photos. Though the opening to it does make one wonder how long before the Shi'ar are added to the films.

Apocalypse comes nowhere near Ivan Ooze kind of bad or purple. This film is definitely on par with DOFP, and even outdoes it in spots. They are definitely going more accurate with some changes yes, but about as many changes as the MCU had done to theirs too.

It's been becoming increasingly rare that I recommend films, but if there are only 2 films you see this year in the superhero genre, Civil War and X-Men apocalypse are it. Alex Shipp as Storm was freaking perfect too.

The best way to describe it, this is what the first 3 X-Men movies should have been if they weren't hindered by so much interference and technology constraints of the time. Fox still needs to find their "Russo Brothers" kind of action director, but I've got extreme faith in the production crew and producers now. The film really surprised me on how well handled it was overall.

They might want to consider moving the director of Deadpool itself over to X-Men. Or something. That's kind of my only complaint about the film at all. Singer does some great scenes, and the quicksilver scenes are awesome, but other spots still feel like they are missing something in the action dynamics. It teases and gives some good oomph, but it's not quite there yet in other spots. Really close though. I might be harder to please on that though thanks to RvB and other material I've been immersed in over the years that also blows Marvel out of the water up until they hired the Russos.
