This should've been the X-Men movie called X-Men: The Last Stand, because this is the official last 20th Century Fox X-Men movie before the X-Men join the MCU. I have continuously said that the X-Men films are some of the biggest missed opportunities in all of Cinema, but can the X-Men franchise end of a high note, or will it simply fade to black? This is Fox's second attempt of getting the Dark Phoenix saga right, and experienced X-Men Simon Kinberg stepping into the Director's Chair for the first time; James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Nicolas Hoult, Jennifer Lawrence, and the rest of the Young X-Men class return as Sophie Turner's Jean Grey sees her being possessed by the Dark Phoenix Force. Will Jean succumb, and give in fully to the Dark Phoenix, or will she find the strength to rise from the ashes(Get It)? Check out our review for Dark Phoenix!
