I don't think DOFP had a clear storyline going for it either.

Professor X sends Wolverine back in time to guide his past self from preventing the apocalypse. Clear plot.

In the beginning, what was Xavier's motivation for being a drunk?

---

He's had to choose between his powers and walking, and he's lost his sister who is now on a path of vengeance.

What's Magento's motivation for killing Mystique? All he had to do was get her out of the situation, and boom- they don't have her DNA.

---

Yeah, but what is Mystique going to do after this? Going to continue to go out and about fighting for mutant rights. It's pretty inevitable that she'll eventually be captured, and then experimented on.

More than anything else, you already have 2 movies(or 3) that have absolutely no mention of the Super Sentinals yet being set far in future of this one. If they green-lighted this Sentinal program, it surely would have put into place after the first X-men movie. How was Mystique even alive for X1 X2?

---

Judging from how advanced the Sentinels are in the future, it seems like they would take decades to create and make them that advanced.

They basically sacrificed First Class to include Hugh Jackman and Wolverine.

Wolverine was not the focus of the film. It's still all about the young Xavier, Mystique, and Magneto. Wolverine is just a catalyst to get the plot going. He wasn't even in the climax of the film.
