Saw Dark Pheonix recently. It was just boring and not very memorable. It don't think I would state that it was actively bad, like X3 though. I actually preferred it over Apocalypse.
I rank First Class relatively high, but agree, mostly for Fassbender:
DOFP was excellent. This is probably one of my favorite uses of special effects in the last decade:
They tried to copy this scene with a slow mo Quicksilver scene in the next two movies, but they just didn't land.
Logan has to be the best for me though. It's a legit good movie. There's a reason why it managed to be nominated for movie awards, beyond just effects and costumes.
