I did stay for the end, and even though I was aware that the Apocalypse storyline was planned for the next film, the scene didn’t really mean much to me until I got home and read about it. It was at least intriguing.
Well, I noodled over a review. And found a few others that resonated with what I saw/felt about the film. I love X-Men (I had a ferret named Logan, and have a cat named Nightcrawler), though I grew up comics-impaired, I read my friends’ vintage X-Men and acquired many of the Essentials.
While I think I’m still a bit more into the Avengers series at this point, this film is a worthy addition to the X-Men stable. Really worthy.
And Hugh Jackman: immortal.
And Jennifer Lawrence: better than I thought.
And the two Sirs.
And the Star Trek reference.
And Quicksilver. (top that one Avengers).
And weirded out by the fact that Mr. Tumnus, Captain Piccard, and Professor X are the same person.
I’m glad you liked it, and your review was great! It just wasn’t what I wanted to see. I did enjoy parts of it. Jackman, Lawrence and the two Sirs are always great, and Quicksilver was definitely entertaining.

Hope you stayed for the end credits scene.
Or not…it doesn’t have anything to do with this movie…yet 😉
