I have to say I liked Charles in this movie but at the same time almost no characther annoyed me more than him. Mostly it was his complete lack of understanding of people that bothered me: he couldn't understand why mutants like Mystique and Hank weren't happy about their mutations, and he completly messed up with Erick (really "They're just following orders" really Charles). Also, his mindwiping of Moira really bothered me. I think what they were trying to do was show that he wasn't always the wise Professor X and he had to learn from his mistakes.
I was annoyed that Darwin was the only one to die of the main mutants in the movie. But I hold out hope that he can come back; maybe he can adapt to survivng death.
My main ship was Erick/Charles, but I also liked Hank/Mystique (and I groaned when he gave her the formula and said people would never accept their mutant forms) and for some reason Angel/Banshee (I have no idea why; it just occured to me during the movie; maybe because I think she'd be the dominant one....nevermind sometimes you just like ships for really no reason.)
For me (besides the whole Darwin dies thing) I loved the movie and only thought of some unfortunate implications later.
