what's up guys your boy k back doing another review for movies in a nutshell
it's been a long fucking time it's been a long time coming
we've been wanting to do this shit forever it's been three goddamn years
we're finally getting to do review for new mutants
before we get into it be sure to smash that like button and i'm letting you
guys know right now spoilers let me say that one more time
spoilers just so you fucking know they're spoilers
all right i'm just gonna jump into it i've been waiting for this shit for
three years when i first saw the trailer for this movie it was fucking stoked
it is x-men meteor i mean two things that i fucking love
what more could i really want the concept of it was new refreshing
and it seemed to be able to revitalize a stagnant x-men franchise
i was hoping for that more than fucking anything and then there were reshoots
and then we had to fucking wait and then we had to wait some more and then disney
started buying fox and then disney bought fox and then we
had to wait again and then covet hit i hate to admit it
but i have a lot of expectations from this movie
or i had a lot going in i couldn't find a fucking theater to even watch this
shit in like no theater doesn't really open so it doesn't make sense for the
theatrical release to me but luckily drive-throughs are still
open and i found a drive-through to have this movie
that being said the movie itself was all right i mean
it wasn't the worst x-men movie we had i.e dark phoenix i.e
age of apocalypse i.e last stand i.e every fucking x-men movie that i've ever
fucking seen pretty much this one wasn't the worst flew right
down the middle for some parts the horror aspect
really chugged along nicely at the beginning but by the end you just
learned it's danny moonstar's power is going crazy
and it kind of falters after that i feel like they had so much
opportunity to make it better with the continuation of what is clearly mr
sinister in the x-men universe first noted
showing up in deadpool 2 with the essex orphanage house
now the essex institute is where these young mutants are being held it's
fucking mr sinister you can do some scary shit with that it
bothers me that you have sinister and not use them you throw these easter eggs
out there with this fucking name but he himself is nowhere to be seen in
these films like it's not hard just cast somebody put him
in it would make a great villain arc for this new mutant group if they were
to continue doing it but honestly it's been three years and
none of these actors look the same they all look way fucking older i don't see
them doing a second one of these now that disney's out the reins unless
they do a soft reboot sometime in the future
just to give you an idea of where it goes in the x-men movie hierarchy
this would be i'd say sixth it goes deadpool one and two
logan x2 first class and then new mutants right in there
it's right in the fucking middle you know it's better than days of future
past and age of apocalypse and dark phoenix
and x3 and x1 but not by much you know those movies weren't all
inherently extremely terrible yes they fucking were how the fuck am i lying too
no they were they were they were pretty bad i just don't want to piss off fox or
disney because you know one day they might be like hey colleen
we want you to make an x-men character and i'll be like you know what i would
love to and they were like wait whoa whoa
what's these videos you bad-mouthing our shit it's like ah fam
but it was fox technically not disney fox don't exist anymore not to bash on
it completely there are things that i did enjoy about the movie
it's a fresh cast uh that dude from stranger things who plays sam guthrie
i thought he was an excellent choice for cannonball even though he looks like a
30 year old dude seems to play a good teenager i'm not
wrong right like he's he's got an old face when he always
plays teenagers that's not his problem that's not his
fault you know he's getting he's getting that money
sunspot could have been better i do enjoy macy williams i mean she's the
murder girl stark the best star girl there was and she did make
fucking uh rain sinclair pretty dope you know
everything else sort of falls to the wayside danny moonstar is more
she's more like sad than i'm used to seeing her in the comics and just just
worried about the future and shit rain sinclair okay wolf spain was dope played
by macy williams every other character there was
alright you know i love robert acosta sunspot i didn't like how they made
sunspot look but seemed very sunspotish to me from
the comics other than that not too much you know
story-wise there's not a lot of not a lot of meat on these bones here in
my opinion the movie sort of fizzled out in the way especially like i said with
the the whole horror aspect of it they've
been getting chased by these things or while they're locked in
this institute their worst nightmares come to life and shit
you tell you at the end you find out it's danny moon stars powers going crazy
and she summons like a giant demon bear while she's asleep
and they all try to fight against it but in the end
she defeats it but not really by telling it that it's okay it doesn't need to
protect her anymore even though pretty sure this is what
killed her father and her whole tribe in the beginning of the movie
it's kind of a softball ending you know that's time to rate this bitch
not by x-men movie hierarchy standards but by the movie in a nutshell standards
and as you know we have awesome must-watch damn fine movie
good dumb fun watch when you're bored and avoid at all costs
here's my nutshell in a nutshell this movie was supposed to be the franchise
restarted pretty much this was supposed to bring back that spark that some
people had when they saw x1 and thought this is a dope ass movie
not me but other people it hit four times there
there are certain things about the movie that worked really well there were a lot
of things that didn't work as they wanted it to could be the
reshoots could be the studio could just be the shitty writing that
seems to be on every x-men movie i don't fucking know
all in all this movie was right down the middle and it's kind of hard to place it
for me but i will say that it was slightly good
dumb fun so i'm giving this three out of five this movie had three
years to come out they had three years to get every single
detail fucking writing it and in the credits
they fucked up my man bob niglia's name co-creator of the new mutants who
was not too happy with the film himself that just goes to show you the care and
love the fox gave to the entirety of the x-men series
