Brian Singer puts together a usable and overall coherent enough film in X-Men Apocalypse. It dances on the middle lines of what could have been a great or terrible film. In the end the movie is a lesson in less is more. Less of the flashy CGI and more of the stories and relationships that matter.

Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshiped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.
X-Men Apocalypse opens in U.S. theaters on May 27, 2016.
