About
You may like this if you want big superhero stakes, space-borne danger, and a team rallying around a dangerous power surge; Not for you if you want a tightly paced story, you dislike divisive reworks of the Dark Phoenix idea, or you prefer cleaner entries like Man of Steel.
Pros: powerful soundtrack; strong action moments; committed performances | Cons: rushed plot feel; weak villain; inconsistent execution
