Dark Phoenix, sure

a_qI went to see it, and I kinda liked it. Sorta?
It was very much eye candy - cool effects, cool fights, lots of muscular forearms and high heels stepping over empty shells, that sort of things. Still, it felt sort of...Empty? Flat? I don't know how to describe the feeling.
It was all one note. It started somber, continued somber, and ended somber. (Though the ending for Charles and Erik was cute two minutes and made me laugh :D) I think I liked Erik the best in this movie, he was actually the one with the sense and the character growth (well, beside that stupid ten minute plan of 'let's kill Jean, I'm sure it's fine') And really, he can't ever know about his son, is that it? That's just fucking stupid. Also, Charles, stop drinking! Fuck. Should Patrick Stewart reach through time and smack him again, or what...
They should've thrown Deadpool in there, to get some fun in the movie... I mean, what Captain Marvel did so well, was build on the 90's feel and inject some comedy in between the action/drama! It was a great mix, which made Dark Phoenix just seem so bleak in comparison. Pretty! But bleak.
