All X-Men movies in chronological order *UPDATED*
by farlignabo | created - 04 Jun 2014 | updated - 05 Jun 2018 | PublicThe X-men movies haven't been good to make movies in a chronological order. And it can all get a bit confusing. The movie that really messed everything up was X-men: Days of Future Past because it altered the timeline.
But I have made the list the way i think people should see it. Days of Future Past are on the list 2 times. My opinion is that I think it's best to watch it last.
To read more about the original and altered timelines you can read more here:

I hope my list can help you out.
Please comment if you think there should be any changes.
