  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 such moment. Nothing I liked.

  This movie is an absolute mess. This is one of the most iconic stories in Marvel history and they don't respect it in the slightest. Instead of making it about sacrifice , responsibility, death and rebirth, they make it about feminism. how progressive of you fox. Taking the liberty of modern social issues and gender politics and completely degrading the tightly written literature that therein the Phoenix Saga! Despicable. They do not delve into the lore, The Pheonix Force, what is is, how it works, or anything.. No Shi'ar empire, No Hellfire Club, No Cyclops leading the team... nothing.

  We have come to the end of an era. The very first X-Men film was released in the year 2000, and since the purchase of 20th Century Fox by Disney, it became official that this franchise as we know it, will end very soon. The core storyline that has served as a loose prequel to the original three X-Men films has come to end, with a thud. Although I wouldn't say I hated this movie, it does present itself as a bit of a disgrace to fans of this franchise as a whole. Almost playing as a low-budget feature film, Dark Phoenix is a film that fails on pretty much everything it promises. Following the events of a mishap in space that ultimately gives Jean Grey the ability of endless power, she becomes the very thing the X-Men have learned to destroy. How she receives the power is blown over and how it comes to be the climax of the film is also ridiculous and overblown. As Jean's power hasn't been fully explored in previous films, her overpowered self seemed more than a little forced here. Personally, I found myself bored by this movie, simply because these characters didn't feel like they felt in any of the previous movies that preceded it. I would say, more than anything, Dark Phoenix is a film that feels like it needed extra work in the development of the screenplay. Simon Kinberg adapted this screenplay from the comic books alone, and while I believe he has been a great writer for this franchise in the past, I believe he took on a little more than he could handle. On top of writing the film, he also stepped into the director's chair. I do believe this man to be incredibly talented in certain areas and may possibly become an award-winning director in the future, but this was not the movie to start with. An amateur director with a budget of over 100 million dollars is usually not a good idea and this film proves that notion tenfold. Where this film does shine (for themes part), is in its performances. These actors/actresses have always been fantastic since their first appearances in the films, X-Men: First Class, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and X-Men: Apocalypse. Although a few of them may have been phoned in for reasons that shouldn't even be mentioned in the review itself, this is a movie that's riddled with talent from beginning to end. Overall, Dark Phoenix marks the ending to this era of X-Men films, and for that alone, many will look at this instalment as possibly the worst in the franchise. It tries to finish this new story, while also tying loose ends from the past, but honestly fails at accomplishing either. There are a few moments of levity here and honestly aspects of the movie that brought me to tears, but only because I was invested in the previous movies. Dark Phoenix brings nothing new to the table and ultimately feels like an independent superhero movie with a big budget to back it up, but not capitalizing on any of that. More than anything, I'm disappointed.

  While it may not be as wasteful as it was anticipated to be, it also feels like an underplayed effort for a franchise that's closing its chapter under the 20th Century Fox banner for nearly 20 years. Dark Phoenix has salvagable action and performances, but its meddling story and flat, rushed pacing felt more disappointing than terrible. 2.5/5
