This week marks the 15-year anniversary of X-Men's arrival into UK cinemas. Bryan Singer's first mutant movie was released with a fraction of the fanfare or marketing mojo awarded to most comic book films today, and yet it scored a slew of critical plaudits and brought home a tidy sum for Fox, sending the vast X-Men cinematic universe into action.
In the fifteen years since its debut, we've witnessed the rise of the mutants through two direct sequels, a pair of Wolvie-oriented spinoffs and the beginning of a brand new interconnected trilogy that's due to wrap up in its third instalment, X-Men: Apocalypse. So to commemorate the film's legacy we've collected fifty of the best X-Men moments from the films....

A reboot of the diminishing mutant movie series is in the works as Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine heads for retirement and a studio's $4 billion franchise sits in flux.
A reboot...YES
Make Deadpool the start of the rebooted X-Men Universe and you are bloody well set
They need to make their Universe R-Rated because it's the only way to stand out from Marvel and DC's Universes by bringing the audience something they won't get off them
As I sat through X-Men: Apocalypse, I felt every ounce of the eight film series' decade-spanning mythos weighing on me. At this point, it's inescapable...
I agree with you on most points, however I feel that Apocalypse was so out of place in this movie. In a movie named Apocalypse, he wasn't the best part of the movie.
All nine X-Men films are ranked from worst to best, spanning the franchise's history from the original 2000 picture to the latest release with X-Men: Apocalypse. Which film comes out on top and which is the bottom of the barrel?
