As it is, The Stand, has some great direction and acting, even if some of the time management isn’t on point.
Far from the dumpster fire many feared, The New Mutants is a much more mundane disappointment: a near miss.
In The New Mutants, five young mutants, just discovering their abilities while held in a secret facility against their will, fight to escape their past sins and save themselves.
You’ll be forgiven for not realizing The New Mutants is an X-Men movie. The trailer is drenched in horror, and mutant abilities are scarce.
