Leave your thoughts about X-Men: Apocalypse.
| Cinema SightWesley LovellA fine addition to the X-Universe, the film has a few minor issues, but stays true to the franchise and to the spirit of its characters. |
| El Mundo (Spain)Francisco MarineroThere's not much innovation in the story nor in the characters. [Full revew in Spanish] |
| Baret NewsKam WilliamsThis episode is the 4th directed by the series' originator, Bryan Singer, whose sophisticated touch always allows an audience to enjoy a relatively-cerebral cinematic experience. |
| BET.comClay CaneWhile not the worst version of the X-Men franchise (I'm still wounded by X-Men: First Class), it certainly proves the apocalypse might be near for X-Men. |
| JunkeeGlenn DunksDespite this large cast of appealing actors, very little has been done to allow audiences to relate to these 'mutants'. Instead, the film relies on the kind of whiz-bang destruction... |
| Urban CinefileLouise KellerComprehension overload, too many characters and lack of a single coherent vision are the film's main problems. Nonetheless Apocalypse will thrill the fans ... not withstanding the Hugh Jackman/ Wolverine factor is in short supply. |
| Eclipse MagazineMichelle AlexandriaLet's give credit where it's due. The first X-Men film launched the modern era of Superhero films. Unfortunately the latest installment is a mixed bag. Takes 1 step forward and 2 steps back. |
| honeycuttshollywood.comKirk HoneycuttThe end - of the movie, not the world -can't come soon enough. |
| The PlaylistRuss FischerApocalypse feels like a cog in Fox’s perpetual-motion blockbuster machine, paying lip service to the story’s allegorical potential as it grinds our interest to dust. |
| CraveOnlineWilliam BibbianiPlays more like an overblown episode of the 1990s cartoon series than anything else, and I wouldn't consider that a compliment. |
