X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

I enjoyed it but there's a lot wrong with it. It's by far the most comic-booky of the main series, far less grounded and quite bloated. It also leans a lot on the emotional beats and iconic moments of the previous 5 entries without creating much of its own or moving anything forward. I would advise any newcomers tempted to marathon the series to stop at DOFP (and perhaps find a fan-edit of Last Stand).
