Writing credited to Zeb Wells gives New Mutants (2009) 17 a welcome concern for consequence. Dialogue carries information most naturally when it grows from disagreement or urgency. The language reflects 2010, yet the central concern with responsibility remains accessible. The script keeps returning to choices and consequences instead of allowing explanation to replace drama.
