Marvel Studios like to use the same formula for all its movies and this is not an exception. The story begins with some characters, Jean Grey, as she evolves into the iconic Dark Phoenix. During a life-threatening rescue mission in space, Jean is hit by a cosmic force that transforms her into one of the most powerful mutants of all. Wrestling with this increasingly unstable power as well as her own personal demons, Jean spirals out of control, tearing the X-Men family apart and threatening to destroy the very fabric of our planet. The film is the most intense and emotional X-Men movie ever made. It is the culmination of 20 years of X-Men movies, as the family of mutants and thrilling action sequences. Definitely, all mysterious aliens, begin to act out, splintering the team to breaking point so makes a film full of emotions, psychological violence, and redemption.

Political change, however, seems a world away for 16-year-old Sofía, who lives far off the grid in a mountain enclave of artists and bohemians.
There are some scenes are entirely without dialogue and almost mirror each other between the main characters. Definitely, silence is the best dialogue because is full of nostalgia. This film reminds you an unusual childhood full of ups and downs of emotions situated on an emotional precipice.
