Though Michael Fassbender has been nominated for two Oscars over the last four years, he's appeared in an almost impressive streak of critical duds since 2016, with all-but-one of his seven released movies receiving mixed-to-negative reviews.

The movies in question are X-Men: Apocalypse, The Light Between Oceans, Assassin's Creed, Trespass Against Us, Song to Song and The Snowman, and even his single critically praised film, Alien: Covenant, was largely rubbished by fans, with Fassbender's performance being deemed its sole saving grace.

With the dubious-looking X-Men: Dark Phoenix on the horizon and the actor then set to star in a feature-length adaptation of the famous Kung Fury short, it's not looking like he'll regain his critical fervour any time soon.
