Unsatisfactory, but still gave five stars

I really wanted to wait until the release, but I couldn't help but watch it in advance, rest assured I will make up for the movie tickets. Overall, it's not a bad movie or a good movie, a qualified popcorn movie.
Fa Shark's acting skills are in charge, and her beauty is against the sky, and her cousin didn't wake up the whole time. Bryan Singer smashed a good hand left to him by Matthew Vaughn. The main line is unknown and the group drama is out of balance. In "Future Reversal", Singer's weak handling of character building and emotional line has been seen. Matthew made the Chawan combination sparkle in "First Battle", and the bromance played just right. Singer, however, is keen on love triangles, even in order to cater to the audience, he is plain and straightforward, and he does not understand the ambiguity that comes to an end. However, the defiant cast lineup of "Reversing the Future", the alternation of old and new feelings, and the ingeniousness of the story itself make up for this deficiency. But in "Apocalypse", not only the flaws in character building are magnified, but the story is even more blunt and perfunctory, and the rhythm is unbalanced to cater to the audience. For example, the clip of Quicksilver saving people is artificially lengthy, and the triangular relationship of the wolf team is forcibly inserted (Uncle Wolf's sentence "go fuck yourself" in "First Battle" is more brilliant than killing a lot of people here). At the same time, there are many characters but unknown levels, lack of core, and the villain is a big failure, which is on the same level as Ultron's basic weak chicken.
Of course, there are still advantages. The actors have solid acting skills, and the commercial popcorn film can't hide the superb acting skills of Fa Shark. There is definitely a sea of ​​stars in Yimei's eyes, and the scene is grand, magnificent, and the visual effects are amazing.
To put it simply, the plot is too weak, the special effects are perfect, the male gods get together, the villain is mentally retarded, and Magneto is struggling. Is Professor X sure that it is not the heroine's script?
Also, did the screenwriter hand over your AO3 account?
One star and one beauty, one star Fasha, one star Nizi, and two star EC husband successfully remarried.

    The X-Men series has a commendable advantage, that is, the sincerity that can still be shown in the extremely routine story. There is no director who is playing tricks on the shelf, and there is no role that looks like a puppet in order to achieve a gimmick. Many details of the film can make people feel the sincere attitude of the creator.

    How is the aesthetics of Apocalypse the same as the circuit board?=-= Two and a half hours, except for recruiting attendants, destroying weapons, and learning languages. In the second degree, you can talk and laugh with Ultron. Lao Wan just sings that our workers have power, and EC is considered sugar... Can the director be more lazy when memory kills account for 70%?
