Los nuevos mutantes

The New Mutants is the last entry in the Fox X-Men franchise before Deadpool 3 that would merge it with the MCU. It has very loose ties with the X-Men franchise. It does have an Easter egg that would make it better if it released earlier. It does have some horror aspects, so this is the X-Men movie I recommend to horror fans. I find it good that they finally did something with Magik. It'll be better if was more about her. I would also find it better if it has more connections to the greater X-Men franchise with Magik being Colossus's sister and there being a small tie to Logan. It can feel a little short in my opinion. It'll be better if it's a half hour or a full one longer and having that R rating, leaning a little more into the blood and possibly a scene of full rear nudity.

Feels different than other films in this genre. Never really commits to the horror aspect which is disappointing. Runtime felt short. Some out of place CGI. Distracting accents. Watchable.

@garcwrites: This movie is a slow burn that gives you enough time to get to know the new mutants but it's not very atmospheric. It doesn't put you in the mood, despite the horror vibe of the piece. I never felt anxious, or worried for any of the characters.

Even if the tone is a bit of a miss for me, it is a smartly constructed story. I felt I got the characters. I understood their fears, their traumas, and why they were the way we found them on an intellectual level but I hardly felt for them. I can't say that the actors didn't pull their weight, even though they are no oscar worthy performances, but giving that the atmosphere wasn't really there nothing elevated the work they put in.

The action scenes and visual effects were great for what they were going for, but in comparison to the sets looked like an expensive new car in a junk yard. The facility they were in is so rundown and cheap looking that I couldn't believe that it had voice activated locks. It would have been easier to believe that the doors opened and closed because of a Mutant's power.

The New Mutants felt like a great idea that wasn't totally followed through. There is a gun-shy feeling to it. They didn't go all the way or didn't strike the right tone. The first half of Josh Trank's Fant4stic Four felt more ominous than this entire movie. Unless they going for an intellectual horror superhero movie - if that's a thing - it worked! Because I understood what I was suppose to feel but never experienced any of the emotions.

67.000.000 $ for this crap?! For this money we could shoot 100 movies, and at least 5 of them would be great.

Don't know why this is getting sick bad reviews. It's not top notch Marvel but it's entertaining enough. A solid three star out of 5.

It's basically one flew over the breakfast club with added superpowers. The characters are likeable, and at an hour and a half it neither outstays it's welcome nor eats into post cinema drinking time.

I doubt the box office will justify a sequel, which is a shame as I'd like to see what happened next.
