During a rescue mission in outer space, Jean is nearly killed when she's hit by a mysterious cosmic force.

What to Know

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.

Dark Phoenix | Rotten Tomatoes (1) 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. Nov 11, 2020 Full Review Dark Phoenix | Rotten Tomatoes (2) 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. Feb 19, 2020 Full Review Dark Phoenix | Rotten Tomatoes (3) 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 Jul 6, 2019 Full Review Dark Phoenix | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Cory Woodroof For the Win (USA Today) Dark Phoenix is certainly bad for the normal reasons a movie is bad, but it’s the passionless obligation with which the film operates that the most dispiriting aspect about it. Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Dark Phoenix | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Calum Cooper Source (Scotland) All the heart and intricacy that once made the franchise so distinct has been disintegrated. Unlike the titular character however, nothing stronger rises from the ashes. Only something devoid of passion. Rated: 1/5 Jul 14, 2024 Full Review Dark Phoenix | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Manuel São Bento 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 Jul 24, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
