Every X-Men Movie!

While maybe it is starting to feel a tad dated, this is still the best X-film - this one is just the most complete, the most satisfying as a cinematic experience, from the appearance of Nightcrawler to the hints of Phoenix at the end. Plus, one word: Famke. Too bad the follow-up was so atrocious.

Probably the best X-film on paper - so well made, with memorable characters and scenes (Quicksilver is a fan favorite and his rescue scene a classic). As much as I liked it the first time I saw it, a second viewing kind of diminished it to merely very good. But the best part about it is that MacAvoy and Fassbender really find their stride and prove surprisingly good replacements for Stewart and McKellan - not an easy task.

Very good overall, although kind of forgettable. I mean, do you remember the plot? I just remember Kevin Bacon being rather mean to everyone (and not just mean dancing), but especially mean to Darwin, and Magneto making bad life choices. But the film did a good job of soft-rebooting the franchise after the hideousness that was the previous two films (see 9 and 10 on this list).

Quite dated, but a nice effort. This is the film that brought superheroes into the modern era, showing that heroes other than Batman could be done well. The biggest flaws of this film was the weakening of Storm and Cyclops...I mean, these two were the biggest badasses of the comics, but have been greatly reduced in favor of a Wolvo-centric franchise. In the comics, Cyclops was usually the central X-man, followed by Wolverine and Storm, the probably Jean Grey. I like James Marsten and Halle Berry, but their depictions of these two characters--or at least the scripting of them--is super weak.

A fun film, not great but nothing to complain about.

Arguably deserves to be at the top of the list, but I'm not sure I'm a fan of the grimdark approach to X-films. Plus seeing a little girl shred people up is just wrong. That said, Professor X with dementia is brilliant.

I wanted to like this one so bad that I pretended it was a better film than it actually was. It wasn't horrible, just terribly flawed - from Apocalypse's goofy suit and Oscar Issac's wooden acting, to the degradation of Archangel to Sophie Turner's utter lack of personality (hope she improves for Dark Phoenix...I miss Famke).

I know this is the darling of many fans, but I just found this whole film kind of annoying and terribly overrated. Ryan Reynolds is his typical irritating self, but even more so in this film. I probably would've liked this film more if I was 15.

An abomination that completely mangled the Greatest X-Men Story Ever.

No comment.
