Would perhaps appeal to teenagers, but not to anyone with a discerning opinion. Inappropriate for young teens and too abysmal for anyone over 18.

I thought waiting so long to see this movie would be worth it, but no, it turned out to be a total disaster. The movie hasn't set its tone, sometimes you feel like it's from the horror genre and other times from the superhero genre.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not a terrible movie, but not a great movie.
The casting was more-or-less well done, though Heaton and Zaga don't fit well with their comic book counterparts (an optimistic farm boy and a Brazilian soccer star, respectively).
The romance between Rahne and Dani is fast paced and irrelevant to the story. Even as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I can see the pandering. The movie's climax is, unfortunately, anticlimactic and obvious with each character getting their 'power spotlight'. The character of Cecilia Reyes is horribly destroyed in the film given that she's a dedicated medical professional in the comics (i.e. Do no harm).
Overall a good watch, but glad it won't be part of ongoing efforts.… Expand

Absolute pap. Adding a zero to counter the obviously fake reviews. I can’t believe how badly they misfired on this. The Buffy episode they clip and clearly stole from is exactly 1,000 times better.

Acting Plot Editing Cast Story Effects Setting Trailer (Completely misleading) Dialogue

I could honestly go on and on, you pick this film apart over and over and could find nothing redeeming, I know this film had issues with getting released, and numerous push backs for re-shoots and re-writes.... whatever other excuse they could come up with, personally, the film should have stayed in production limbo, stayed on the naughty step till the parents came home cos you will regret ever watching this film, if there are any reviews over 3 stars are lying to you, you will regret every moment, you will hate your life, you will wish you could scream at the tv till they could hear you and be ashamed of what was the final product. I hate myself for ever giving this film the time, and if you get to the ending spoiler everything was given away in the trailer.... Also that trailer OMG WTF, there should be a law against misleading people on films just like products in shops.

I am making myself angry just thinking about how bad this film was! Therefore I must stop and take a breather… Expand

I could go on and on about the CGI and many plot holes but I just make myself more furious. Don't waste your time and money!! We learned from Dark Phoenix that we better say good bye to the franchise. Maybe now is the time.… Expand

The X-Men storyline has been lost. It has forced sidelines not related to original 'mutants'. Better not to mention anything to connect to the successful X-Men dynasty.

I thought it was a mediocre movie, the elements of horror are not scary, and how a superhero movie can't get excited. It's a movie to watch only once, which could even be a Netflix catalog, not something for the cinema.

Superpower to bring to life nightmares is a cool idea, but the way that is personified is weak and the resolution doesn't show growth for or explain why

Some of the acting was good - but the pacing was way to slow, the action brief, the motivations of the characters confusing (which is really weird given all the screen time spent on character development), the "scary" misty black cloud that becomes corporeal is banal, etc.… Expand

A terrible film, this is definitely not the new X-Men whom we were waiting for, they also pushed tolerance there, it's strange that there is not a single African American, are you racists? Where are the gays? Are you not tolerant? Already tired of their tolerance The ending is just complete nonsense with this bear. If it was just a film about mutants, but ok, but the film is positioning itself as the new mutant of the X-Men, do not even try to continue to do something further.… Expand

You get this sorry excuse of a Marvel film. If you've seen the trailer, you've seen all of the supposed horror elements. If you've seen Stranger Things, you've enjoyed a far better version of the "mysterious facility for kids with powers" story. The characters are flat and predictable. The plot is barely there. The film makers left so much material untouched. Where were the back stories of each character? Where are the revelations about who is really behind the hospital? What is the bigger picture Of the world surrounding this story? I literally laughed out loud during the silliness of the the final battle scene. Bummed to see another whiff on what could have been the start of a decent Marvel franchise.… Expand

Since words cannot describe how infuriated I currently am, here's a list of everything this movie screws up. The lighting is so awful most shots come off as silhouettes, the action and camerawork in general would be incoherent even if the lighting was passible, the sound design is lazy at best, the acting is plain bad, the callbacks and references are insulting, the creature design may even be decent if you could see it, the story is messy, the fight this is named after is likely the shortest of the entire movie, the list goes on. But most of all, what I hate the most about this movie is the disgusting, disrespectful, sociopathic images it forces the audience to sit through.

So let's move on. It's got a little bit of action, a lot of superhero horror movie and this movie is bad. The dialogue made me feel bad, bad cgi, bad score, and it made me wanna hate spy kids and machete.

The New Mutants was the last film in 20th Century Fox's X-Men franchise movies.

The premise isThe New Mutants was the last film in 20th Century Fox's X-Men franchise movies. It's a spinoff movie based on the comic/team of the same name and focuses on lesser-known mutants Mirage, Wolfsbane, Cannonball, Sunspot and Magik. The premise is simple "Five teenage mutants undergo treatments at a secret institution that will cure them of their dangerous powers. Invited by Dr Cecilia Reyes to share their stories, their memories soon turn into terrifying realities as they start to question why they're being held and who's trying to destroy them". I remember watching the first trailer and it was very interesting especially since it portrayed this movie as a horror x superhero movie which was something new. However, it had a lot of background development problems with Fox executives wanting reshoots to make it more horror causing a delay, Disney merging causing it to be in limbo, the coronavirus causing it to be delayed again. It eventually released 3 years after being filmed. The question is was this movie worth the long wait?

Firstly, the cast is pretty good and deliver for the most part. They do a good job for what they have been given and are convincing enough in their accents and portrayal of their character archetypes. Additionally, the chemistry between the entire cast is good even when they are antagonistic against each other. Wolfsbane (Maisie Williams) and Dani/Mirage (Blu Hunt) are great in scenes involving them together and Magik (Anya Taylor-Joy) is charismatic and dislikeable at the same time. Secondly, the third act of this movie is pretty enjoyable to watch with its surprisingly good action scenes and good CGI. Seeing the characters powers are also visually fun to watch. It is also the first superhero movie to give a proper representation to the lesbian community and not in the dumb "Star Wars" way.

Unfortunately, there isn't anything else to praise about this movie. The first two acts of this movie are so boring and extremely slow-paced. The first act has a lot of setups to introduce us to the characters and the director (Josh Boone) does this by having constant talking. It was just so mundane and uninteresting to the point that I was begging for something exciting to happen. There is a scene where all 5 of them decide to have fun by taking a lie detector test and it is so draining to watch. The main character Dani gives a monologue about some Demon bear that feels like it is going on for way too long. The second act starts to have things happen but when these things happen they only last 10 seconds before going back to some boring conversations again. The characters aren't great themselves as they are all cliche archetype. We got Dani whos the nice POV main character, the nice girl Wolfsbane and nice boy Cannonball (Charlie Heaton), the **** boy Sunspot (Henry Zaga) and **** girl Magik. They all remain these type of characters from beginning to end with maybe Magik somehow not being an **** anymore with no explanation. None of the characters has any depth to them and you barely know anything else about these characters as their past are not completely elaborated on. None of the "surprises" in this movie is even surprising as the story is entirely predictable. The antagonist is predictable and all the explanation for the things occurring in this movie are also predictable. The horror aspect of this movie is all in the second act and there are barely any of it which is hugely disappointing. Furthermore, they are not even that scary. The superhero aspect of the movie is not handled well either due to pacing issues and boring characters. It also feels like scenes are missing from time to time such as the aforementioned Magik personality change where one scene before she is frightened and then 15 seconds later she is suddenly a badass without fear. Potentially the reshoots were going to fix this but sadly it never happened.

Overall, this movie is a gigantic disappointment. Even though the movie had a great and unique concept, it doesn't matter when the execution is poor. It's not a good superhero movie and it's not a good horror movie either. Thankfully, the movie is just 90 minutes and the third act of the movie can give you some enjoyment but there are better superhero and horror movies than this.… Expand

Loved the actors, not the accents and the story could have used some plot twists or some sort of antagonist we would believe. There was no emotional cause here.

A completely unstructured mess, this movie trips and stumbles through its single act with no plot in sight, bland and shapeless characters the writer so sincerely wanted to force life into, and an absolutely absurd lack of any stakes.

And that's not even mentioning the plot holes so wide you could drive a truck through, the bizarre character decisions ("oh yeah, Dani, we know you're literally causing us to live our nightmares and you've sicced a huge demon bear on us to kill us, but we're gonna be on your side because... because the doctor is... sort of bad?"), the TERRIBLE acting (except Anya Taylor-Joy, she could act her way out of anything) and, again, literally no narrative thrust. Oh, and it doesn't even try to be scary, so what even is the point?

Avoid like the coronavirus.… Expand

The artwork looks to have been createdThe New Mutants' plot may have reproduced the classic beginning superhero story, but it instead takes an all-encompassing approach, concluding the X-Men's with an uncomfortable squad of sorrow-teens? The artwork looks to have been created around the 1990s, albeit not in a very innovative manner. It's a little undercooked, making it unappealing as a superhero picture, drama, or horror thriller. A huge and enticing budget cannot compensate for an image that is completely out of date."An irrational, incoherent, and bizarrely expensive attempt to reimagine the superhero genre." The movie is mildly amusing but ultimately uninteresting. The final installment in Fox's X-Men franchise is a letdown. The horror elements in The New Mutants do not appear to be particularly frightening, and the film falls flat as a superhero film. Despite its high budget and high ambitions, The New Mutants are unique and, in some cases, bizarre.… Expand
