This new opus of the saga X-Men was supposed to finally give a real thickness to the character of Jean Gray, creature dangerous for her as for the others, and therefore an incredible power. It will finally be nothing. In spite of a shocking introduction to the power of the girl and her difficulties in controlling it, the film, though directed by Simon Kinberg, who succeeds Bryan Singer (and who was either a screenwriter or producer on » X-Men: The Final Clash «, » X-Men: The Beginning «, » X-Men: Days of Future Past «, » X-Men: Apocalypse » but also the two episodes of » Deadpool «») fails to measure the torments of a character who develops feelings of guilt for fear of herself.
Gradually lining up with both the authorities and the two camps of the » X-Men «, but also strange creatures from another world, the character aligns the carnage and the fighting for his survival, in a boring linearity. that only disturb some flash-back on the rare parts of his childhood introducing the footage. In addition, Sophie Turner, discovered in Sansa Stark in the series » Game of Thrones «, with its almost unique facial expression is far from paying homage to the complexity of the character, contrary to what could incarnate Famke Janssen in the same role , in the first trilogy.
There remains, however, a particular scene, the attack of a convoy, including the virtuosity of the exploitation of the interiors, the fluidity of the exterior-interior passages, the multitude of intervening characters, the cascades in chains and the efficiency of the special effects leave nailed to the seat. With a duration of a good twenty minutes, it alone is worth the trip, and gives the full extent of what could have been the film, in which you can also see Jessica Chastain at its best, in a troubling role nasty.
