    Storyline

    Edit
    The X-Men. Protectors of peace. Jean Grey is one of the most beloved X-Men. But when a mission goes wrong, Jean is exposed to a dark and ancient power. This power has destroyed everything it comes in contact with, until her. Now that this power is becoming unstable, she releases it with destruction and anger. Now that this foreign power is consuming her, and the world is threatened, the X-Men have to face an important truth: they must save either the world, or their friend who threatens it.

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Hans Zimmer decided to retire from composing superhero movies after having worked on scores for Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Spider-Man, but Simon Kinberg convinced him to work on this film.
    • Goofs
      The film is set in 1992, 30 years after the events of X: First Class (2011), yet the characters have barely aged during the intervening years. A few mutants have anti-aging abilities, but not all of them. This movie is set in an alternate timeline, so all continuity errors are justified.
    • Quotes

      Professor Charles Xavier: The mind is a fragile thing. Takes only the slightest tap to tip it in the wrong direction.

    • Crazy credits
      When the 20th Century Fox logo fades away, the X in the logo stays for a second longer before it also fades away.

    The best storyline in the X-men canon, and they crapped all over it.
    Don't know where to start with this. If you're going to dig up the greatest story in the X-men canon, you need to bring it. And this film brought nothing. It all felt so hollow. The characters didn't ring true. The story didn't ring true. It was all over the place with many nonsensical choices throughout. I was so excited for my favorite storyline and was disappointed more than I can put into words. This political and social propaganda piece missed the mark by miles.

    FAQ3

    • Why do none of the main characters appear to have aged despite decades passing since they first appeared in-universe?
    • What would be the best order to watch this and the other X-Men movies?
    • How did Jean merge with the Phoenix Force in space when she previously manifested its power in "X-Men: Apocalypse"?
