X-Men: Apocalypse, though, does a very good job of almost rivalling Ratner’s hot CGI mess with its own hot (more coherent) CGI mess – a reminder that writer Simon Kinberg penned both, as well as DoFP (and, incidentally, This Means War and Jumper).
And some jokes about that Brett Ratner sequel.
After the timey-wimey complexities of that convoluted retcon, though, X-Men: Apocalypse marks a return to simpler ideas: a giant, blue guy trying to destroy the world and a school-load of good mutants trying to stop him. “The third one’s always the worst,” quips Jean Grey (Sophie Turner) halfway through X-Men: Apocalypse – just in case you hadn’t already guessed that director Bryan Singer didn’t like Brett Ratner’s The Last Stand from the fact that he invented an entire film (Days of Future Past) to eradicate it from existence.
