That film series was totally bipolar. How do you follow X-Men 2 up with a complete piece of trash in X-Men 3. At that point you know how to make a good movie....but just choose not to? Then you follow up DOFP....with Apocalypse.

Some of the best and some of the worst superhero movies.

If you exclude Apocalypse, you've actually got a pretty good run of films with:

First Class
The Wolverine
DoFP
Deadpool
Logan
Deadpool 2

Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix were so bad and forgettable that they really tarnish the legacy of the whole series. If both were even average, you have a run of 8 solid films in a row.
