X-Men: Dark Phoenix- Critics say the film is 'deeply disappointing'

The film focuses on Jean Grey and an accident that gives her immense powers.

She gains the powers of a cosmic entity, 'The Phoenix Force' and turns into an embodiment of rage and evil, prompting her fellow X-Men to try and stop her.

The storyline was previously adapted in The Last Stand but the film was panned universally.

This one is also being criticized.

Rotten Tomatoes' Critics Consensus reads, "Dark Phoenix ends an era of the X-Men franchise by taking a second stab at adapting a classic comics arc- with deeply disappointing results."

Nearly all critics have said that the film lacks emotional value.

As per Vanity Fair, "There's much potential in the classic Dark Phoenix story to be mined- all of which this new film largely ignores."

A review by USA Today reads, "The first couple of 'X-Men' movies in the 2000s, and more recently 'X-Men: First Class' and 'Logan', set the standard for what this long-running franchise could and should do. Compared to that ilk, 'Dark Phoenix' simply flames out."

While IndieWire called the film "the only $200 million tent-pole that has no evident reason to exist."

Turner plays the main character of Jean Grey and her performance has been called the only good thing about the film.

According to Variety, "[The film] attains a note of ominous majesty, thanks to Sophie Turner's presence as an X-Woman consumed by the awesomeness of her power."

New York Post said, "Sophie Turner shines but the messy plot flames out."
