Viewing order for a Newbie

It's been several years since I watched all the X-Men movies. Would several someones please recommend a viewing order for them, including "Deadpool." Thank you ever so much in advance! I am slightly lost after seeing "Apocalypse" this weekend and want to catch up before it comes out on disc this fall. I do remember certain parts and faces of "First Class" and "Days of Future Past".

Thank You again for all the help, I tried to list them all to save some time and effort for readers. Sorry if anything is missing.

X-Men (2000)
X-Men 2 (2003)
X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)
X-Men: First Class (2011)
X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)
X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)
X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)
Deadpool (2016)
The Wolverine (2013)

This is my personal viewing order:

X-Men (2000)
X-Men 2 (2003)
X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) (I would, personally, exclude this film entirely, but this would be a decent spot for it)
X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)
The Wolverine (2013)
X-Men: First Class (2011)
X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)
X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

Deadpool (2016) (This film has no impact on the other films, so it could be watched independently of them)

Watch them in the order they were theatrically released. You'll come across various inconsistencies and contradictions, but that's the X-Men film series for ya.

I would definitely watch First Class & Days of Future Past after watching the original trilogy. Go ahead and watch Origins too. Just for Wolverine and Sabretooth. And after seeing Origins' version of Deadpool, you'll appreciate the 2016 version much more.

i'm currently watching the ones i've missed chronologically in the order they were released.

i've seen the original X-men films, the first Wolverine and Deadpool.

going to watch First Class, then Days of Future Past and Apocalypse.
i'm not too bothered about the 2nd Wolverine..
