With several deviations from the comic book canon in the plot and a noticeable shift from the character development that took place in the first two X-Men films toward a faster-paced, more action-oriented, and choppier film, this film got mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike. Even directors of other movies in the franchise, Brian Singer and Matthew Vaughn, as well as the movie's own script writer, Simon Kinberg, criticized the movie for treating the Dark Phoenix story arch too superficially in a melange of characters and scenes that was either packed with too much material or lacking adequate length to present properly.
Having gotten that off my chest, I still like this film, and even Ebert and Roeper gave it two thumbs up. If you check your expectations for a canon portrayal of the X-Men at the door, and enjoy a good action-packed comic book movie, then this is a fun choice! My brother--a complete novice in comic book lore--saw this movie for the first time in 2017 and really liked it. For those who continue to harp on the fact that it isn't as good as X-Men and X-Men United, I direct them to the next installation--X-Men Origins--to see what an actual terrible movie with no redeeming qualities looks like.

Like the summary says. But it has good acting especially from Kelsey Grammar and Shawn Ashmore. And as always, excellent acting from Sir Ian McKellen. This movie needlessly kills off major characters, leading to the need to reboot the series with a new timeline. Still a nice steelbook.
