I hoped it would be better when he started fighting, but that was boring too.

It was all the bad wire-fighting that killed me. That entire finale just came off as half-assed and cheaply done.

Example: Pheonix's aura is a giant flaming bird (hence PHEONIX). That would have been draatic and incredibly impressive on film. Instead we got cheesy backlighting. El Cheapo. I don't care that they changed the origins of the Pheonix, because that would have meant about 3 hours of backstory and introducing the Shi'Ar, The Eternals, maybe even the Kree and Skrulls and the Blue Area of the Moon. This would take far too long and completely take the audience away from the core story. What I do care about is how poorly they presented a character (at the end) who was integral to the entire movie.

Sweet, too bad they didn't choose the fiery Jane. Beats me why.
