Dark Phoenix
from Mac & Gu Movie Club · host Mac & Gu
The X-MEN face their most formidable and powerful foe: one of their own, Jean Grey. During a rescue mission in space, Jean is nearly killed when she is hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful, but far more unstable. Wrestling with this entity inside her, Jean unleashes her powers in ways she can neither comprehend nor contain. With Jean spiraling out of control, and hurting the ones she loves most, she begins to unravel the very fabric that holds the X-Men together. Now, with this family falling apart, they must find a way to unite -- not only to save Jean's soul - but to save our very planet from aliens who wish to weaponize this force and rule the galaxy.StarringJames McAvoy...Professor Charles XavierMichael Fassbender...Erik Lehnsherr / MagnetoJennifer Lawrence...Raven / MystiqueNicholas Hoult...Hank McCoy / BeastSophie Turner...Jean Grey / PhoenixTye Sheridan...Scott Summers / CyclopsAlexandra Shipp...Ororo Munroe / StormEvan Peters...Peter Maximoff / QuicksilverKodi Smit-McPhee...Kurt Wagner / NightcrawlerJessica Chastain...VukWe discuss the the final movie in the X-Men franchise, Dark Phoenix.Is it worth your time?
