Review of Dark Phoenix (2019) by Easterfields — 05 Jun 2019
This movie is **** awesome! I'm not sure what crack viewers are smoking, or perhaps they're just easily manipulated by the media, but I found this X-Men film to be one of the best in the whole series. Second actually only to X-Men 2: X-Men United-and I hated X-Men Apocalypse.
The plot is familiar of course, and there's definitely some cringe worthy lines (and no Hugh Jackman is a severe handicap) but IT IS A SUPERB retelling of the Dark Phoenix saga. Don't be fooled by the bandwagon.
Hans Zimmer's soundtrack is unforgettable and the whole movie us unbridled action from beginning to end. With the final 40 minutes or so, complete balls-to-the-wall mutant splendor.
