Dark Phoenix first exams: a hurried shipment

The director of Simon Kinberg, director Simon Kinberg Men: Dark Phoenix has opened to mixed reviews. Most critics have praised Sophie Turner's Jean Gray, but her weak plot has left her unimpressed.

X-Men: Dark Phoenix culminates for the 10-year franchise of X-Men. His plot revolves around mutants, including Professor Xavier Charles (James McAvoy) and Magneto (Michael Fbadbender) split over the question of whether to save or destroy Jean Gray as his powers become dangerously out of control.

According to The Guardian, John is the high placed. point of the film, which otherwise goes out. His comment was as follows: "There is a surprise in store for Jean, although given the weightlessness of the events of the film, like superheroes, this surprise is not the badlash that she should have. Basically, we are moving towards the same test of strength against the evil that closes the Marvel movies, with many digital effects. The battle here is certainly bustling, and Jessica Chastain looks intimidating as a foreign Vuk – although the role makes her lose all her talent. The reappearance of Magneto is mediocre, as the performance of Michael Fbadbender, although his character is deprived of interest in his former rival Xavier. We were also denied a sequence of masterpieces by the minute for Quicksilver (Evan Peters), spiritual features of previous installments. The interest of a phoenix, whether dark or not, is that it is born flames. But these are the flames in which this franchise has finally disappeared. "

The New York Post has described it as" messy ". She writes, "Turner could be a one-time pony – I do not see her signing the movie" The Hangover: Part V "so soon – but it's a winning trick. She is extremely vulnerable here and you aspire to fill the void of her childhood after the death of her parents.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the desire to end the series will attract the faithful, but there are also loopholes. "After 12 installments over two decades, the X-Men franchise ends on Dark Phoenix. Long-time producer Simon Kinberg's series producer, Simon Kinberg, does not have the point of exclamation rightly expected by the fans at the end of a course that has embraced three prequels, parallel courses with the Wolverine and The offspring of Deadpool and the happy new reshoot, The New Mutants, which is scheduled for release next April. Curiosity and the desire for completion will attract fans of the series, but the creative inspiration and enthusiasm of the audience that once fueled the series have obviously dissipated, "reads in his review.

According to Entertainment Weekly "It's true that X-Men has never exactly been the party clowns of the Marvel Universe; their hero status has always been conditioned by fearful humans, and the chosen family of mutants in which they have landed is less a choice than necessity. Why should they have to joke for us too? Nevertheless, for what is called a final payment, all of this tends to feel both anti-climatic and a little sinister at the end. Not that Marvel is really finished; Fans need only hold their breath for the horror movie The New Mutants, scheduled for next April.

The Associated Press called Dark Phoenix "hasty". "It's supposed to be the culmination of 20-year-old X-Men movies, and yet it's more like a spin-off rushed and inconsequential than anything we've been aiming for for two decades. Maybe it's because we have barely come to know this version of Jean Gray (Sophie Turner), whose transformation into Phoenix almighty is what divides the X-Men into a small civil war. "
