It’s just a shame that 'X-Men' was never able to live up to its potential in this form. Drawn of clichés, a tired script and a tired cast, it’s a big wet flop of a film where it looked like the cast were just there to collect their cheques. It’s probably something to wait for a digital release and watch on a rainy Sunday afternoon where you can fall asleep during the exhausting middle section and wake up at the mildly less-exhausting end. If anyone needs me, I’ll be looking for Cyclops, hot choccie, blanket and hug. - Brent Davidson...

If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog :) Honestly, I'm going straight to the point, and I'm going to try not to waste anyone's time since that's precisely what Dark Phoenix did. Clearly, no one in the production team cared about this movie. Now, after watching the film, it's pretty easy to understand the reasons behind the constant delays, and the poor marketing campaign (I barely saw anything remotely publicizing this movie). It's not a complete disaster, it's not an absolute mess, but the third act is such a stab into the fans' hearts. Literally, one...

I don't think this was the disaster that the critics make it out to be, but it is one of the lesser Fox X-Men movies. Both the opening scene where the X-Men rescue astronauts stranded in space and the ending where Magneto and the X-Men fight aliens on a train were well done action scenes. It's the middle that sags a bit. The film lacks energy and emotional impact. Simon Kinberg wrote and directed this second go around of the Phoenix Saga as a way to atone for writing the mediocre The Last Stand. But this film does not really...

It's a really good movie with superb graphics and storyline.

***A fuller rendition of the Jean Grey Plot of “X-Men 3” with Sophie Turner*** This is another take on the Jean Grey story of “X-Men: The Last Stand” (2006). That movie was good up until the last act with the conventional battle between the good and bad mutants at Alcatraz Island, which diverged from the more interesting core story concerning Jean. “Dark Phoenix” (2019) has a similar problem in that Jean’s inner conflict between good and evil is the most interesting element, along with the other mutants being troubled by her transformation and trying to figure out how to handle...

I don't know if _Dark Phoenix_ is the **worst** entry in the X-Men franchise. I feel like I remember being much more angry walking out of _Last Stand_ than this one. _Dark Phoenix_ didn't really make me "angry"... It didn't make me feel anything I guess. But there was just **nothing** I liked about this. Like, _Apocalypse_ was a bad movie, absolutely, but I really enjoyed that bit in the middle where the young X-Men got to the shopping centre together. That elevated it for me, even if it didn't stop it being a bad movie. _Dark Phoenix_ has no...

Not as bad as I feared and the plot in and of itself was fine, as were the performances (outside of accents going in and out depending on the scene), even Sophie Turner was okay, the visual effects were alright and the direction serviceable. However, the biggest problem was the dialogue which ranged from predictable (to the point I could predict lines from time to time) to absolutely atrocious. Not sure where this ranks amongst the "franchise", though initially I'd say it is above Apocalypse, a movie I didn't care much for but a far cry from First Class and...

I had seen somewhat mixed opinions of this movie and none of them were really that great so I had some doubts about it. Anyway, the other day I sat down with the kids and watched it. Far from the greatest X-Men movie but it’s not that bad either. It’s okayish. The story is fairly decent and, as usual, the special effects (which is really why I watch these movies) is quite good actually. The characters are doing a decent enough job of their roles although none of them are really up to the standard Patrick Stewart brought to the...

This had the potential to be the best of the franchise; bur sadly it isn't/wasn't/never will be. It's an amalgam of loose acting right from the start with neither James McAvoy's more mobile version of "Xavier" nor Michael Fassbender's anything but magnetic "Erik" managing to inject anything like enough to liven this dreary and repetitive story up. Then there's the mediocre writing and special effects that we have seen so many times before. It goes nowhere, but never quickly enough as the ending seems tantalisingly close, but takes way too long to arrive. It'll be fine on the telly on...

I've been a huge X-Men fan for many years. I especially loved the comic dark Phoenix saga. This movie was a travesty. It was a train wreck from the moment it started and never got any better only got worse. It had nothing to do with the storyline of dark Phoenix like in the comics. The lineup wasnt the same... No wolverine, no hellfire club... I can go on and on and pick this movie apart but I really don't have the time nor do I wish to. Simply put dark Phoenix sucks. The only saving grace to this film...

Well... I thought The Last Stand was bad. You know, the movie where they took one of the most classic of classic legendary Claremont X-Men stories and merged it with a Joss Whedon X-Men story line that had nothing to do with Dark Phoenix and.... just lost the plot entirely. I mean that was pretty bad. This is worse. This is ultra woke Politically Correct kinda Ghostbusters 2016, they have a message about genderstudies that trumps the story and didn't you know that everyone of a certain race, gender, and sexuality is absolute evil even if they have a long...

I don't understand the point of this movie. It seems to be attempting a copy-paste of Endgame's success, while jumping to making Jean the Phoenix _immediately_, just like the X2 and X3 films, which were both criticized for this very thing! Why make Charles the villain? I think most viewers can agree, blocking Jean's mind was the right thing to do. Sophie Turner's acting in this film was also particularly poor. The performances by McAvoy, Lawrence, Fassbender, and Peters were what keeps this film from the 10% in my books. Trash.

The worst part about this is that (almost) everyone on screen is trying so fucking hard, but the writing completely sinks it. The entire plot relies on everyone in the story acting wildly out of character, it has the worst villain of an X-Men movie, and Quicksilver, the most promising new character introduced in the series, is completely sidelined and wasted. And on top of that, nothing ever comes of him being Magneto's son. Magneto never even finds out. While Days of Future Past was great, the whole idea of this new series set in the past was just so...

65/100 Jean Grey (Phoenix) absorbs a cosmic force that may force her to save the world or destroy it. At this point, if you're trying to place the X-Men movies into a logical timeline, stop it or you'll hurt yourself. Just go into this one as a person who's familiar with the characters and ignore all the other films, is the best suggestion I can make for optimal enjoyment. And, there's a lot to enjoy. The quality is there, great character development, simple but engrossing story, and loaded with action and spec fx. May not fit in with the other...
