X-MEN: APOCALYPSE<\/a><\/strong> is hit or miss, depending on who you ask. While the Bryan Singer-directed film has its fans, it received a majority of negative reviews from critics with a 46% Rotten Tomatoes score and 65% audience rating. As the big bad of the film, Oscar Isaac <\/strong>as Apocalypse<\/strong> was met with mixed results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking with The New York Times<\/a><\/strong> on the reception it received, Isaac said “No, I don\u2019t disown it. I know exactly what I went in there wanting to do and the reasons why. There were these amazing actors involved that I really wanted to work with, [James] McAvoy and [Michael] Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence. I collected X-Men growing up, and I loved Apocalypse, I just found him such a freaky, weird character.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“And then you get there and you\u2019re like, ‘Oh my God, I\u2019ve got all these prosthetics on. I\u2019ve got a suit on. I can\u2019t move. I can\u2019t see anybody. All these actors I wanted to work with \u2014 I can\u2019t even see who they are,’ he continued. “I still think back to that time with fondness. I wish it would have been a better film and that they would have taken care of the character a little better, but those are the risks.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While X-Men didn’t give Isaac the desired results, he returned to the world of Marvel with Disney+ series Moon Knight!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
