Critics Consensus

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.

Joe Morgenstern

Wall Street Journal

The spectacle is entertaining, up to a point, but even the digital wizardry wears thin, and Dark Phoenix turns into a standard-brand miasma of explosions, collisions and swirling force fields.

Atavia Reed

Chicago Reader

Turner delivers a solid performance as a young woman coming to grips with an unknown force, and James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender maintain the frenemy bond we've grown to love.

Tim Cogshell

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

A middlin' X-men effort that cheats the saga of its past, present and future, messing with the story-line in unacceptable ways. Plus, it looks big and cheap - but mostly cheap.

Rated: 2

MSB Reviews

Dark Phoenix ends up being what everyone feared it would be: a movie that didn’t matter, at all. One that didn’t even try to pay homage to an extraordinary saga that notably influenced the comic-book genre.

Rated: C

Fiction Machine

This fresh attempt is not poorly made exactly as The Last Stand was; instead it is a fairly risible effort for all new reasons.

Rated: 4/10
