The New Mutants Ratings & Reviews
jackmeat
4d ago
My quick rating - 5.6/10. When expectations due to delays happen, you really want to knock it out of the park when the movie finally is released. That didn't happen. From what came out and what was reshot, I don't know, but this was supposedly the more frightening version. The less horror and more "hero" version of the movie was scrapped for this. I think they fell in between those two visions. I am not saying this was bad at all, just was not what I hoped for. The heroes won't become household names with kids collecting their figures which is part of what this comic was about. The lesser-known and misunderstood heroes. Anya Taylor-Joy plays Illyana Rasputin and is about the only one that stood out to me. In this story, the mutants are held in a compound for testing and understanding their abilities. Of course, that is just a cover for the Essex corporation to get their DNA and use this to create killers out of them and others. If not a comic book fan, you actually may like this even more since the characters themselves are developed well. I think there was more room for this trilogy to grow, and I believe you can kiss the trilogy idea goodbye, both at the same time. The action was decent when it happened and scares had a good shot if they didn't get limited. A lot of potential wasted IMO.
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
A popular $6 billion franchise is saying goodbye (well, handing the reins over to Disney) with a wimpy young-adult horror flick.
New York Times
Amy Nicholson
The original New Mutants comics debuted in 1983, the year Johnny Ramone howled for "Psycho Therapy," and its punkish, expressionistic pages wafted spray paint. Boone's version is set in the 1990s and wallows in Gen-X ennui.
AV Club
A.A. Dowd
Even a mangled bit of Whedonese about a toad struck by lightning could benefit a superhero story this starved for character.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
An idiotic, nonsensical, and weirdly cheap attempt to take the stories in a new direction.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
The concept behind The New Mutants is a solid, intriguing one that could've reinvigorated the familiar origin superhero story. Instead, Boone opts for genericism, ending the X-Men franchise with an angsty-teen whimper.

It feels like the movie doesn't have anything else up its sleeve.
Vanity Fair
Richard Lawson
The movie that's made its way to theaters is mildly engaging but mostly inert, a wan sizzle reel for an idea rather than the idea made manifest.
Los Angeles Times
Tracy Brown
Boone's film does demonstrate that there are different ways to approach these franchises outside of the binary of lighthearted/fun and dark/gritty movies that permeate the superhero genre.
TheWrap
Michael Nordine
It's the kind of movie many fans will surely want to like, and while it lives up to that modest promise, it certainly doesn't go above and beyond.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Re-shot, re-cut and somehow rescued from total obscurity, Boone's movie isn't half bad. Alas, it's not half good either.
The Hollywood Reporter
Jordan Mintzer
Very little new here.
Screen Rant
Molly Freeman
The New Mutants tries to offer a compelling blend of teen drama, horror and X-Men mythos, but ultimately fails to deliver a good entry in any genre.
OurQuadCities / WHBF-TV (Illinois)
Linda Cook
There's not much new about 'New Mutants'
The Armchair Auteur
Dominic Griffin
Neither a particularly exciting outing to close the Fox X-Men franchise on, nor an egregious and offensive failure. It's just sort of...there.
FlickDirect
Allison Rose
While the cast is made up of mostly younger actors, they are a rather accomplished group, and their expertise helps them to fully flesh out their characters.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...a somewhat promising setup that's employed to progressively interminable effect by Boone...
Ghastly Grinning
Ryan Larson
The New Mutants is a peek at how we could blend horror and superheroes together and it's a fun, angsty adventure that exists in both realms.
Beyond the Trailer
Grace Randolph
A very good cast can't overcome a film that's horribly behind the times. New Mutants feels like it was made in the 90s, and not in a clever way...
Film Threat
Alan Ng
If you want a few jump scares and a superhero Breakfast Club, give The New Mutants a chance. With the proper expectations, it is not as bad as you think it is. Just keep those expectations really low.
