My friend's sister watched it with us. Didn't even watch DoFP or First Class, let alone having any knowledge of previous movies or comics. Mostly blank slate, except for a brief explanation of First Class by her brother immediately prior to the movie. Just one person's opinion, but she said the movie was fun and that she had a good time.
