इस फ़िल्म के बारे में जानकारी

In this terrifying, action-fueled film based on the MARVEL comic series, five young people who demonstrate special powers are brought to a secret institution to undergo treatments they are told will cure them of the dangers of their powers. Included are Danielle Moonstar aka Mirage (Blu Hunt), who creates illusions from other people's fears; Rahne Sinclair (Maisie Williams), who transforms into the werewolf Wolfsbane; Sam Guthrie (Charlie Heaton), who, as Cannonball, can fly at jet speeds protected by a force field; Roberto da Costa aka Sunspot (Henry Zaga), who absorbs and channels solar power; and Illyana Rasputin aka Magik (Anya Taylor-Joy). The younger sister of Colossus, Magik becomes encased in armor at will and wields a soulsword that amplifies her multiple superhuman and psychic abilities. Invited by Dr. Cecilia Reyes (Alice Braga) to share their stories about when their powers first manifested, the five "patients" come to understand that they are in a class of people called mutants, who have historically been marginalized and feared. As they relive their origin stories, their memories seem to turn into terrifying realities. Soon, they question what is real and what isn't, and it becomes clear that the institution isn't what it seems. Now the question is - why are they being held captive? And who is trying to destroy them? The tension and horror mount in this white-knuckle thrill ride directed by Josh Boone and co-written by Boone and Knate Lee.

रेटिंग और समीक्षाएं

I liked this film. It's a X-men universe film so don't expect the most profound script or acting, but it is not as bad as many have reviewed here. The special effects are good and don't disappoint, and as a niche story (think like Rebel One in the SWU) it is a perfectly enjoyable B-grade movie. And just a little bit scary/creepy too.

For the most part the acting is fine, but the script gives the actors very little to work with that isn't a cliche or a trope. The story is paper thin and about halfway into the movie you'll be looking at your watch and wondering when something/anything is going to happen. The visual effects are well done but, in the absence of characters that you care about or an engaging story, they're just some pretty visuals. I kind of feel bad for the cast because they were wasted on this screenplay.

I saw this with my friends at the cinemas and then went again with my girlfriend because I love this movie, I like it because its more a thriller than a horror movie so it was more my type of movie, and it was interesting. And people might think it's a horror movie but I'm used to horror cuz I love it so it's more a thriller to me.
