From the picture to the picture, the potential of the Wolverine character remains unrealized, the stories always trivial and the new film has become no exception. The whole picture will have a maximum of 10 minutes of action scenes, all the rest is Logan's self-reflection. The picture is not saved by the excellent performance of Patrick Stewart and Dafne Keen, Hugh Jackman, on other side, is also good, but to watch at his sad face in every Wolverine movie is painful. Sadly, but film is boring and protracted to infinity, all the fun is shown in the trailer. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Good movie if a little over the top. They pull the heart string card a few too many times though I have to admit that I will be sad if Patrick Stewart never returns as Professor X... He was the absolute most perfect actor for the role and it will be near impossible to get a replacement. Certainly the new guy playing the younger professor was lame by comparison. The other deaths were not as big of deal though I am a fan of Jackmans Wolverine. The problem is, I just dont find Wolverine interesting. Actually I think he is downright boring and idiotic. The only thing going for him is his drive to do right but in all other aspects he was always a doorknob, even in the comics. So him dying does not matter too much. The only other complaint I had is why they couldnt get a real Spanish speaker for the girl? She had the worst Spanish accent I have seen in many years. So bad, that even I was able to spot it and Spanish is my 3rd language. Cant be that hard to find a Mexican actress in California...

Other than minor complaints, the movie was very enjoyable. Seeing these characters as old men was entertaining and watching Wolverine go up against his younger self was funny as well. I do enjoy watching bad guys get eviscerated and I like happy endings and this one had plenty of both. The villains were ok, certainly not as good as Magneto in the earlier films but adequate enough to glue the story together and keep me interested. Definitely see it if you have not.

I mean let's face it, that first trailer was a dead giveaway of how damn good it was going to be.

I understand that Marvel has made the attempt to build characters through a series of films previously, such as they have tried with the Avengers films, but never have I seen a film that treats character development as seriously, and pulls it off with such precision, as they did here in 'Logan', a film that focuses more on the "humane" aspect of the character and how vulnerable he is as a superhero, instead of the over-the-top execution that's usually featured ('X- Men Origins' I'm looking at you).

Two characters that we've come to know and love, James "Wolverine" Howlett (aka Logan) and Charles "Professor X" Xavier, are put to the test of time as we see them in their new state, once characters that resembled strength and power, are now withering and vulnerable. And the gut-punching, adrenaline- pumping action has been swapped out for slow-moving, emotional drama and character development. Does it work? You bet! From start to finish we are led on a journey of discovery and empathy, with James Mangold more than making up for his previous effort that is 'The Wolverine'.

I think it's the uncertainty throughout that gives the film that powerful punch. In the other X-Men films (and most other Marvel films for that), we are faced with a plethora of superheroes each fighting a seemingly impossible army, but no matter what, there is always a general feeling that the good guys will win, and this usually happens. So when attending a superhero film, you sit back in ease, knowing the protagonists will succeed, however in 'Logan' that never happens, there is never that sense of safety, we can't be certain of their outcomes. Every step of the way, Wolverine looks tired, he looks sick, he's dying gradually, and due to his weakened form, we are left worrying for the character, there is that emotional attachment that most other superhero films lack. This is the harrowing truth throughout, we are emotionally-concerned from start to finish.

With utterly stunning cinematography, a hard-hitting score, fantastic direction and a superhero performance that might just be the first Oscar- deserving one ever. Wolverine's outing makes for the best Marvel film to date, a gritty and vulnerable adventure into the vulnerability of superheroes.

8.8 user score for this movie is the reason why the US president is Donald Trump. You guys clearly, blindly love guns and blood in movies, paying $10 to see the same movie every few months, ugh...

Part of me wants to give this movie a 0 just to bring the user score down, but I have to be honest and rate it higher. It's not a 0. But it is definitely a 3.

Most of what makes this movie a 3 is the plot holes, and how inaccessible it is as a standalone film for those that aren't Wolverine die-hard fans. Actually, I don't know if being a die-hard fan might make the movie WORSE for you, because it's a bad movie of something you like. Anyways, I know people think that those who gripe about plot holes are jerks that are overly critical and hate fun, but that's not me. I like fun. I think if you make a movie about an action hero, it's probably going to be an action movie, and we all know there isn't any shortage of movies with fight/gun scenes, so you have to freakin' do something to separate yourself from just being another action movie... Logan (the film) does this mostly by throwing Logan (the character) in our face with different sides of his emotional character.

Why is he so sad? Why is he suicidal? Why does he do anything he's doing? Why does it feel like he's given up? I was interested in these sides of his character, but near the end of the movie just didn't care anymore because I was so bored. The movie makes Logan-claw-action scenes boring by then, by having too many of them. The characters talk too much and simultaneously say too little, and this movie isn't dialogue driven at all. Near the end of the movie I strongly suspected that X-23 and/or Logan were primal screaming just to wake up people who may have fallen asleep in the theatre. Anyways, I'll mention some good parts about this movie:

-I thought some of the action stuff was creative. But there is too much "meh" action in this movie.

-The movie has a certain atmosphere to it. But it doesn't really do much with the atmosphere. It's just one of those things that could have been done better, so it's barely a plus.

-The gore is surprising and satisfying, but near the end you will not care anymore.

Now the bad, and then after I will list some huge plot holes:

-X-23 is not mute but gives the weakest excuse for not talking until close to the end of the movie.

-Logan is WAY too tortured of a protagonist in this movie. It gets annoying after a while. Like, stop complaining and finish the mission.

-Who the HELL are these antagonists? They might as well have been the grey putty men from Power Rangers, holy cow the movie doesn't explain their motives well enough.

-Logan's "powers" are good when broken up by other mutant powers, but this movie attempts to carry itself using only Logan's powers (and guns of course, Hollywood's favorite prop for moving movies along these days). It does not work to good effect. When other powers are introduced it is only at the end of the movie.

-When X-23 turns the cross on Logan's grave to make an "X," I hard-cringed in disgust.

Now for plot holes, which I know you all have been waiting for me to get to:

-Okay, you have to get to North Dakota, why the HELL are Logan, X-23 and Prof. X stopping so damn much? What's with all this side-questing??? GET TO THE OBJECTIVE, STOP LOLLYGAGGING AND GETTING THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU KILLED.

-Logan's friend, Calaman or Kalavan, whatever his name is, kills himself so that the antagonists can't use him to track Logan and X-23 anymore near the end of the movie... but why doesn't he do this AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE MOVIE???

-Near the end of the movie, why are the children running away from the soldiers? They have POWERS, which they later use in unison against the main antagonist, WHY NOT BUNKER DOWN AND FIGHT THE SOLDIERS THAT ARE COMING AFTER YOU???

-How does Logan run 8 miles that quickly? He caught up to helicopters, armed trucks and the children he chased after to rescue at the perfect time, what is this nonsense?

-Why does Logan even die? Are you really telling me that the children ran out of green juice that heals Logan on the exact date that they were rolling out to make it to the final safe haven???

-Why does the movie end BEFORE we see the final safe haven???

To conclude:

With the 5000 char limit on Metacritic I can only condense my anger at this film, but I have so many more words. This review may have come through as sporadic, shotgunning my disdain for the terrible tropes of Hollywood filmmaking at a film based off of something that I liked growing up, something that stood for a cool berserker rage that is supposed to be aimed at a faceless evil we all want to lash at. If I could transform this movie into such a force, redirecting our loved berserker back at Hollywood, I would want this action to convey that this is a bad movie, and those who made it should feel bad for making it.

I asked for my money back afterwards...

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A welcome addition to an already saturated genre, continuing a movie series that everyone thought was all but exhausted of any chance of a sequel being good and remarkably creative. Logan achieves what all other Wolverine-Centric X-Men films all failed to do: make you actually care about what the heck is going on in this ultra violent, ultra science fiction world. Gone are the extremely convoluted, over-ambitious science-based plot points and bloated cast of mutants. Instead, everything is focused on exactly what is most important to this story: Wolverine, Xavier, Laura. All the fat of quicksilver and blah, and who else can we squeeze into this terrible story to make an extra buck--it's all been cut out. This is a mature film; it goes down like a sip of properly aged whisky: bold, sophisticated, and not for the faint of heart. The only real complaint I have is that the ultimately bloody end of this film felt abrupt after watching the film once; I was expecting an additional 5-20 minutes to completely solidify the end of the most favorite X-Men character's arc. Instead, we get a fairly quick last moments of Wolverine with his daughter, the two finally using the familial terms they never had the privilege to use, and then he's buried. That's it. Maybe it's because the movie was so good that I wanted more? Eh, I'll just buy it when it gets released from home entertainment. Even if you were as skeptical as I was about this movie, go see it. It will impress you. Expand

However, I recommend only that the viewer rent this movie at redbox for $1.60. Then I can be jealous of you, for the value. The director and the film editor here deserves credit for the pacing and sustained level of tension and thrills. The new face of the young female lead adds a freshness long overdue in this genre. Feel safe and gather your family and friends for a movie night where fun on the couch is the point. Expand

This is the Wolverine movie I have ever wanted just not as good as it could have been. I loved the fact that this movie is really violent and has a lot of curse words and it is a grittier, more realistic, darker portrayal of the Wolverine. This movie defies genre conventions to the extreme but maybe that serves as a bad point too. Maybe I am just not used to see a Wolverine movie with an R rating and such brutal violence but a lot of people think this is an vantage point. Hugh Jackman is great in this movie and you get to see him portray the Wolverine in a whole new way. The movies plot is kind of dumb and when I really thought about it , a lot of the things that happened didnt really seem to make sense and for the tone this movie is going that has got to be the worst thing they could have posibly done. So youre telling me that when Logan is watching that video of the kids on the phone, she edited that just for Logan to watch it and bee like "now the audience gets what was happening in that Hospital", seriously, and how did the people at the Hospital didnt notice a person filming their clearly illegal activities. For example the little girl only says a word almost at the end of the movie and there is no reason for her not to be talking during the rest of the movie. So all and all this movie is good and I am sure a lot of people will love it but it is just not for me. Expand

When Charles and Logan do talk - the word **** is so overused that it loses all impact. I guess FOX wanted to follow up with the success of Deadpool but it tonally doesn't work. The characters at best service the situation at worst are completely devoid of any true character. I found myself feeling disconnected and bored - fighting to stay awake during this 2h 18m run time.

Do not have any expectations for this movie. Maybe you'll like it - mileage may vary as they say.

Even beyond the gore, clear setup and failed execution of comic relief, and depressing atmosphere, Logan has a muddled plot that ditches exposition and character development in favor of comic book references and severed limbs.

Logan has the setup of a standard Marvel movie, attempting to balance gritty, engaging action with light-hearted comic relief. Its sad, dark angle befits the premise: the main character is being poisoned by his own super-powered skeleton. This angle, however, crosses the line from dark to melodramatic as mentions and visual imagery of blood, pus, brains, and guts overshadow the "internal struggle" Logan is supposed to be enduring. The supposed "deep existential crisis" that Logan suffers regarding his repeated murders of people around him is unbelievable when he repeatedly, intentionally goes out of his way to kill people when he had the option to do literally anything else. His counterweights, the optimistic Charles Xavier and adorable daughter Laura balance out Logan's grit and angst...or, that is, they would if they had anything meaningful to say throughout the movie. Laura is mute until the very end, which serves as a clever bait-and-switch at the expense of her narrative potential as a character, and Charles spends most of his time on screen explaining that Logan is indeed dying without adding why it's happening or what to do about it. Even the villains are carelessly slapped together: their organization manufactures child soldiers from the DNA of mutants like Wolverine and are trying to track down Laura and the other mutants like her because they are the creations of said organizations and do not deserve to see the outside world. Individually, however, these characters have no depth. There's a scientist, a bounty hunter, and a Wolverine clone, and that's all you'll ever learn about them.

The Good: convincing acting, Charles being adorable when he's not spouting faux exposition, Laura being charming when she finally opens her mouth

The Bad: sub-par comic relief, lack of clear exposition and motivation for villains, two most engaging characters rambling on about how Logan is "being POISONED" and staying mute for most of the film, respectively

Verdict: I'd recommend this to die-hard fans of X-Men who would watch anything with Wolverine's face on it and literally nobody else. There is no substance to speak of in this Suicide Squad-esque cash grab of a film.

That in the most visceral sense of the word. Although there has been much talk about the similarities that this work has with one of the biggest video games of the last period: The Last Of Us (2013) It has the crudeness and the handling of the perfect violence (although in Logan the violence Is much more exaggerated in the same way it gets along well) and an argument although fanciful in the same way is mature.
In the sense of the script I felt it with enough references so that a lover of comics (not sandy enough) likes it and you do not feel lost if you have not seen films before this, since you only need to know about Wolverine only Of general culture.
In the action scenes are full of blood and are not as overexploited as others. Not to enter spoiler terrain the key situations are very well developed and the turns you expected are there but they will also surprise you.
The characters are very memorable and good performances in the same way, although the translation of Latin America is especially in dubbing since it is very mexicanizada which has to do with the direction of the film, my recommendation is to see it in the original language, and That much part is realized in Mexico and with the translation loses slang. (There is a situation with X-23 that will be remembered for its translation).
In the matter of art direction is absolutely normal, except in key moments, nothing to remember.
In short, it is a very good action film and above all with a story that is bearable and memorable.

Con Logan no solo tenemo la conclusión perfecta para un personaje tan memorable para el cine como para los comics, tambien tenemos lo que debería ser una apertura.
Una para el género que lleva este estigma infantil con el que carga(Marvel/Disney) y que cuando se intenta hacer adulto o serio se vuelve un ridículo completo (DC/Warner).

Logan es una película poco comprendida entre la crítica, ¿a que me refiero con esto?
me refieron a que muchas de las fallas que se le buscan vienen de su ritmo, de ese road trip que marcan Logan, Charles y la pequeña Laura. pero la películas busca estos momentos intimos, pausados, porque esta peli no trabaja como una peli de acción o de superhéroes, este es un estudio de personaje; “Quien, Como, Cuando y Porque” se pregunta esta película, se pregunta sus personajes y nos preguntamos los espectadores, conocer a fondo a un personaje sin que te lo explique una pantalla de inicio con letras, un flashback revelador.

No! aquí hay que fijarse en los diálogos, en los gestos, en su mundo. James Mangold nos mete en ese mundo al instante, ¿dónde están los ley?, ¿dónde están los valores?, ¿donde estan los Hombres X? así es como Logan consigue ese toque Western que se nos prometió, este género se hace estas preguntas, en este mundo tan hostil habrá alguien que se atreva a hacer algo al respecto, Logan lo hará! verdad? Mmm… no.

Logan ya no es lo que conocíamos, su factor de curación ya no es lo que era de antaño, lo que en su momento lo convirtió de un mutante al arma definitiva (Arma X), el Vibranium lo está envenenado, su cuerpo cada vez más se le dificulta contrarrestar todo ese material en su cuerpo, sus heridas ya no sanan, las balas duelen más que antes y ese dolor se quedará ahí un buen tiempo, con el simple hecho de sacar sus garras Logan ya sufrió lo suficiente.
Tenemos ese retrato de un hombre que no solo sufre físicamente, sino que por dentro está destrozado, ha perdido mucho y lo que le queda por proteger (Charles Xavier) está cada vez más delirante, el arma de destrucción más peligrosa se le hace llamar y no nos olvidemos de Laura, una niña que a duras penas se le puede catalogar así, es una infante que no ha tenido infancia, que el odio ha estado presente en ella porque solo fue concebida como objeto de experimentación, Laura es brutal, los villanos palidecen ante su furia, es lo que en antaño vino a ser Wolverine pero ahora está en el cuerpo de está infante.

Es ahí dónde Logan marca una diferencia, nos presenta estos personajes tan famosos y vanagloriados en la cultura y cuando los vemos simplemente la ilusión se desaparece, los baja del cielo dónde están y los colocan a nuestro nivel, con sus problemas, sus flaquezas, estos delirios y depresiones, está furia, esa inocencia. los personajes en Logan no son superhéroes, son personas y esto se siento como nunca en ese género, Wolverine ahora es una persona in-reactiva, ya no busca responder antes los problemas o antes sus agresores, Charles es un demente que detrás de esa demencia oculta una culpa tan grande que él se mira así mismo como un monstruo y Laura tras esa incontrolable furia se esconde una niña, que quiere escapar de su terrible destino como un arma. Nunca antes mire ese tipo de tratamiento. La joya del género es considerada “Batman The Dark Knight” y si entiendo sus razones y es de mis películas favoritas pero en mi opinión Logan tiene un poco más de sustancia.

This review is from a movie viewer who has not seen the last X-Men Movie:

I was surprised how much I loved this movie. It had action, emotion and a great plot. There were barely any references to the previous movies, so I had no obstacles with my viewing experience. The warning is that there is blood... a lot of blood. If you can get past the gruesome death scenes, you will absolutely love this meaning. My true rating of this film is a 8.75, so I rounded up and gave it a nine. This isn't a movie to take the kids, but the adults will absolutely love it. This movie makes me want to rewatch all of the Wolverine/ X-Men movies. Go see it and enjoy!

Logan, to put it simply, was a fantastic movie. The reason it succeeded so much was because it was grounded. It kept us with the characters and we were able to relate to the characters despite the superhero background.

All of the actors were impressive, and Jackman was impressive as always. I loved X-23, she was hilarious and badass at the same time.

The action scenes were very impressive as well. There wasn't major CGI or special effects, but they were very well directed and exciting.

Overall I would say that this was a fantastic movie. It was emotional, exciting and at times terrifying. I would recommend it to pretty much anybody.

This movie delivered what the other X-men movies were holding back from us. The brutality and ferociousness of Wolverine is brought to us in spades by not only Logan himself but by Laura/X-23. These two, along with professor Xavier, deliver an on screen chemistry that seems organic. The action is well choreographed and brutal, living up to the R rating. Don't expect this movie to be simply action. You can expect a lot of laughs, both intentional and unintentional, and loads of heart string tugging moments. Overall this movie delivers to both fans an newcomers. There isn't an instance in which you will be bored. Expand

Extremely bloody, profane, raw and disturbing. Logan has a theme of kidnapping and child abuse, which is hard to watch because these kids are being hunted down by all. It scared me to see a family murdered one by one, and I was a bit freaked out. The script is very lazy, with many swear words inside. The good part of this movie is the acting. Hugh Jackman did a fantastic job as Logan, but the other characters' performances do not fit in as much with Hugh Jackman's style. Patrick Stewart does not do such a great job as a leading role, and it almost seems like Hugh Jackman has to be there all the time in the scene so we don't completely freak out. I understand how some people would like this movie, speaking of which that it is "Marvel's Dark Knight." I am not a huge fan of superhero films, nor am I a fan of dark superhero films, but this one seemed different. I'd rather see a movie where I could follow along and enjoy the plot and suspense as we go. The plot in Logan isn't that spectacular, and they use references to the X-Men comic books in the movie just to remind us that this movie was based on a deep comic strip. This is only my opinion, but I wished the violence wouldn't be so non-stop, bloody and cheesy. Not a fan of these films, and it has ruined my small liking of superhero films. I do like LEGO Batman, though! Expand

If 20th Century Fox wants to keep going with the X Men franchise, I think they should just do a total re-boo because this one really should be the last film. It’s well acted, the action scenes are really good and the plot line, while dark and gritty also works very well and the rumours are not true, there is no Deadpool cameo in the film, thank god, because that would have destroyed the tone. It’s not fun and it’s not glamorous, but that does not change the fact that it is readly good. I would really recommend seeing this one, especially if you followed the X Men films, though, be aware, it is a very gory film and it very much deserves its R rating. Don’t stick around for the end credits as there is no post-credit scene. Expand

I enjoyed the film in the sense that I always love watching Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and I felt this was a must see even though I knew how it would ultimately end. It's a "smaller" film with a more dramatic bent than other X-men films. Action scenes were violent but rather unoriginal. And ultimately, it would not be a movie that I would re-watch again and again. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Oh, how desperately I wanted to enjoy this movie, but alas, I was disappointed. I want to start off by saying I am not criticizing this film because of some petty fanboy war going on in the comic book world right now, and I hope fans of this movie won't simply dislike this review because of the yellow score, and will listen to the critiques I give it.

Let's start with the positive aspects. The acting in this was fantastic. Hugh Jackman gives a powerhouse performance. The girl who plays X-23 is great for the little amount of lines she is given. I will watch just about anything with Patrick Stewart in it, and his performance didn't disappoint. Second, Emotionally, this film rocks. The connections between characters are strong, and there are some genuinely touching moments (especially towards the end of the second act, and the entire third).

Now the cons. First, the violence in the film. Violence in movies should ALWAYS have a decent justification to be there. Whether to entertain, or provide drama and tension. "logan" could have very well have been toned down (Even to the point of being PG-13) and it would have been just as (or more) entertaining. In the tension/Drama department is where this film kind of screws itself. Because the entire film is soaked in blood, the climax is somewhat deflated and lacking in tension. Nothing about the "final battle" seems more dire or desperate than other tussles in the film. We see the wolverine get viciously torn up in a scene taking place on a farm, and nothing seems more dangerous or threatening in the last fight. In fact, you barely feel concerned for the characters at all, because the nemesis in the fight during the resolution was one they already encountered, and survived earlier. On top of that, the villains in this film are severely lacking, mainly because they're all cliches. One is an evil scientist, One is a clone of Wolverine (Cough* Terminator 2 *Cough), and one is a leader of a big bad government agency, the kind that we've seen in countless films like the Bourne trilogy, transformers 4, and other spy themed adventures. Lastly, the action scenes in "Logan" become boring and tedious after two hours. In most action movies there are things to help the audience differentiate one action scene from another. Take The "Mission: Impossible" series for instance. In "Rogue nation" one scene takes place at the opera, on a catwalk. Another on a plane taking off. Another underwater, in which the hero has to hold his breath while completing a task. Unfortunately Logan is not like this. Each action scene is the same. Guns and Claws. Guns and Claws. The location of the fights may change, but the circumstances don't. There are no obstacles that force the characters and action to adapt to their surroundings. It's just a slash-fest.

Overall, I'll probably see it again, because I enjoyed the parts between the characters. It's just a shame that in the mean time I have to endure 2 hours of tedious and grueling face stabbing.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "Nature made me a freak, man made me a weapon, and God made it last too long."

In a time when Marvel continues to churn out the same superhero film time-and-time again ('Deadpool' and 'Guardians' aside due to their fresh take on the genre), it's refreshing when something as intricate and beautifully-executed as 'Logan' is made, and on the extremely rare occasion I have given a superhero film a "masterpiece" rating. I mean let's face it, that first trailer was a dead giveaway of how damn good it was going to be.

I understand that Marvel has made the attempt to build characters through a series of films previously, such as they have tried with the Avengers films, but never have I seen a film that treats character development as seriously, and pulls it off with such precision, as they did here in 'Logan', a film that focuses more on the "humane" aspect of the character and how vulnerable he is as a superhero, instead of the over-the-top execution that's usually featured ('X- Men Origins' I'm looking at you).

Two characters that we've come to know and love, James "Wolverine" Howlett (aka Logan) and Charles "Professor X" Xavier, are put to the test of time as we see them in their new state, once characters that resembled strength and power, are now withering and vulnerable. And the gut-punching, adrenaline-pumping action has been swapped out for slow-moving, emotional drama and character development. Does it work? You bet! From start to finish we are led on a journey of discovery and empathy, with James Mangold more than making up for his previous effort that is 'The Wolverine'.

I think it's the uncertainty throughout that gives the film that powerful punch. In the other X-Men films (and most other Marvel films for that), we are faced with a plethora of superheroes each fighting a seemingly impossible army, but no matter what, there is always a general feeling that the good guys will win, and this usually happens. So when attending a superhero film, you sit back in ease, knowing the protagonists will succeed, however in 'Logan' that never happens, there is never that sense of safety, we can't be certain of their outcomes. Every step of the way, Wolverine looks tired, he looks sick, he's dying gradually, and due to his weakened form, we are left worrying for the character, there is that emotional attachment that most other superhero films lack. This is the harrowing truth throughout, we are emotionally-concerned from start to finish.

With utterly stunning cinematography, a hard-hitting score, fantastic direction and a superhero performance that might just be the first Oscar-deserving one ever. Wolverine's outing makes for the best Marvel film to date, a gritty and vulnerable adventure into the vulnerability of superheroes.

The action scenes are superb, bloody and all, and a real sense of thrill and importance. The only personal crutch for me was the lack of clear development of the villian(s), yet the great storytelling of the protagonists makes up the these issues. Logan is easily on of the best superhero films ever, and possibly one of the best films of the year. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A movie with surprising depth and profundity that was able to make basic human emotions matter as much if not more than super powers. For example, we find Charles Xavier, a brilliant man who's powers were reliant on his brain, coping with such an ironic and tragic but human situation: his mind is betraying him. When he realizes his crime committed to those he had spent so long nurturing and acting as a father figure to, especially as a senile old man, that truly was heartbreaking. Logan still has his hard-earned pessimism but you really get a feel of how exhausted of life he is. My one gripe were the villains were kind of bland for me, though they do serve their purpose as vehicles for ideologies. I do have a higher expectation from Xmen to have villains be more than just bad guys in costume up to no good, and while that wasn't exactly the case here I did find their depth more on the lacking side.

In all, I felt the movie really did a great job focusing on characters and relationships and showed how the Xmen were not a superteam, but a surrogate family.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved this movie. I think that it is the perfect goodbye for Hugh Jackman as he probably did the best portrayal of wolverine he has ever done. Just for that alone, the movie felt great, yet the other actors did a fantastic job as well, even the little girl was a badass. The action was intense and very satisfying, the move for an R rating was the right one, as it gave the movie so much more weight and credibility, even if it was still a movie about mutants. It felt mature, it felt conclusive and sentimentally powerful. The reason I give it just an 8 is because it suffered some pacing issues in my opinion, specially when Logan meets the kids and keeps fading time and time again, and because I felt that adding another Logan pushed the movie into generic territory, it felt kind of out of place given all the seriousness and realism they tried to portrayed in the film, thought I gotta admit, Logan vs Logan was still badass. Go see it. Expand

But his attempts to hide from the world and legacy are up-ended when a young mutant (Dafne Keen) arrives, being pursued by dark forces.

Hell yeah! Finally a mainstream superhero movie for those who don't really care about superheroes, or have grown tired of all the cliches of the genre.

It's got R-rated action, it's got characters with some depth and also memorable acting, it's got heart. It still is not deep enough to be compared to the quality superhero TV series, of which there are many. And it loses some of its dramatic heft near the end due to lack of variety (not enough different stuff happening, the same type of events are always recurring). But all in all, the movie's good, and worth the hype it's gained.

This is the last time we got to see Hugh Jackman as Wolverine... unless he changes his mind, of course.

Also stars Boyd Holbrook, Richard E. Grant, Stephen Merchant, Eriq La Salle and Elizabeth Rodriguez.

The road Logan, Charles and Laura is simply amazing. It has exactly the right amount humor. And the R-rating is exactly what I was hoping for. This movie is a masterpiece and a movie every fan of action, superheroes or simply beautiful movies should see.

Logan, I feel, is a tad overrated and not as good as everyone is making it to be. Sure, it's not bad, but I feel it doesn't deserve all the praise. I couldn't help but be disappointed when the credits rolled.

Characters: I honestly didn't get the whole "he's so pained and tortured, and it's easy to forget this is a superhero movie because of the character development." Superhero movies still have character development. Maybe some don't have the best, but it's still there. And while I do admire this movie for focusing more on the characters and their problems, I didn't feel for Logan a whole lot all the time. Sure, I know he was sad and could tell the pain he was in that he'd accumulated throughout his life. But he was just kind of grumpy and sad and acted the same. One thing I did like about the movie was that Wolverine and most characters didn't need some long monologue or anything describing how sad they are. You know the pain they're going through. What I'm trying to say is that I don't think this movie deserved AS much praise for its character substance. Sure, the movie pulled it off pretty well, and for a superhero movie it's good I guess, but it didn't blow me away.

Acting: The acting is very good. Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart both do an excellent job portraying the older, more pained versions of themselves. You could really tell the difference between them in older movies and them in this movie. They really showed that they are pain and are suffering. Dafne Keen was also good, though she didn't get to do much in terms of acting range until the end.

Action: I was never a huge fan of Wolverine's action, as it gets kind of repetitive. Pretty much all of his killing sprees are "stab stab stab stab stab stab, get shot, stab stab, get shot again, stab stab stab, cut off arm, stab stab stab, slit throat, stab stab stab." I'm not saying it wasn't well done, as the action scenes were sort of cool and darker than the past. However, it got kind of boring as it does with most of his action scenes. The best parts of the action scenes were the parts with choreography, like Laura running and jumping off his back and landing on a guy, or Laura using her foot blade and becomes more acrobatic when fighting, like Black Widow. Stuff like that added more diversity to the otherwise repetitive action.

Plot: It's basically just a 2 hour and 20 minute chase scene. This doesn't mean it's a bad movie, but I was hoping for a bit more, and it wasn't even a super exciting chase plotline. At least a movie like Mad Max: Fury Road, which was basically a long chase scene, just had non-stop, well-done and perfectly executed action sequences, where this movie has inconsistent parts throughout, slowing down the movie. When he meets the family halfway through, the entire momentum of the story just stops for 20 minutes. There also wasn't really a definitive bad guy. I'm guessing this was because they wanted to focus on Logan and the characters more, which I don't have a problem with, but then I didn't really have anyone to go against. I wanted more motivation for Logan to escort Laura. Sure, he wants to do something good and she's his daughter of course, but if there was a more defined bad guy, even just a few more minutes distinguishing a villain, I would feel more like "yeah Logan! Go get Laura to wherever they're going! I want you to beat that guy!" or something. Instead I just feel like "ah, just kill this guy that looks like Ryan Gosling who's supposed to be a villain and get to wherever you're going" instead.

Overall, Logan is a bit slow at times with not much to compensate for. I must say I had high expectations from the pretty high ratings from critics and very positive reviews from fans and friends. Unfortunately, Logan did not live up to those expectations. I guess I would recommend it because a basic fan of superhero movies would probably like it since so many did. It wasn't a complete waste of time, and I may have given it a 7 if I didn't have such high expectations.

Am I crazy in thinking that Logan is good enough to start stirring up some conversation when awards season hits? James Mangold’s long-awaited, much-ballyhooed, R-rated entry in the final chapter of Wolverine’s trilogy still manages to be aAm I crazy in thinking that Logan is good enough to start stirring up some conversation when awards season hits? James Mangold’s long-awaited, much-ballyhooed, R-rated entry in the final chapter of Wolverine’s trilogy still manages to be a surprising delight despite all the hype.

There are R-rated films that are violent in order to grab more eyeballs, and there are R-rated films that are violent because it’s necessary. This one’s definitely in the latter, and like Deadpool it is true to its truest form – as in, there’s so much blood and dismembered body parts it’s impossible to even forget for a second that you’re watching a film about a man who likes to stab a lot and has metal claws in his hands that go snikt!

The year is 2029, and due to some nefarious doings of a mystery science company a mutant has not been born in a quarter-century. An old Logan (Hugh Jackman) spends his days working as a no-nonsense limo driver shuttling back and forth from Texas and Mexico, haunted by a drinking problem and a bad cough. His healing factor has slowed with age, just as the rest of his body has, and remains one of the last of the mutants along with Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart). Xavier's brain disease continues to progress and causes him to lose control of his immense and deadly power, and now lives in an overturned water tower that slightly resembles Cerebo. They’re joined only by Caliban (Stephen Merchant), an albino mutant who has the ability to track other mutants and who serves as Xavier’s day-to-day caretaker. Everyone is tired, and life is a drag.

The X-Men have long since disbanded, but the Wolverine is still a household name, and a nurse tries to enlist his help in escorting an 11-year-old girl, Laura (Dafne Keen), to a place called “Eden” in North Dakota. Logan initially refuses, but eventually takes the job in exchange for a hefty payout. Along the way, though, he runs into Donald Pierce (Boyd Holbrook), a heavy-duty security guard whose job is to keep a mysterious science company’s secrets under wraps. As Logan and Laura go on the run, their symbiotic relationship becomes the heart of the story. Logan serves itself very well because of just how few characters it has, a nice change of pace from the previous X-Men films that feel overcrowded and make you wonder which actors are actually playing mutants and which ones accidentally walked onto the wrong set. Every scene seems like a character study, and even the minor characters are as every bit as memorable as the stars. Everything seems to make sense and carry genuine emotion.

It’s such a major improvement over Mangold’s previous effort in The Wolverine, an uneven, big-budget summer film that had a hackneyed love story and a hackneyed villain, a structure studios stubbornly and stupidly drift towards because it’s been proven to make a lot of money. Logan’s advantage was here – a story that manages to be both deeply violent and deeply personal because there were good reasons it had to be. The studios were so unsure of its success Jackman took a pay cut in order to reduce some financial risk, and Mangold filmed the bloody scenes with practical effects because he thought it would look more aggressive and visceral.

Mangold’s films always look very good, and the cinematography from John Mathieson, who previously worked on X-Men: First Class and the criminally underrated The Man from U.N.C.L.E.¸ is also astounding, with its dust clouds, washes of orange and limited use of bright colours making it look just like a classic Western. Marco Beltrami’s score is very good, and sounds every bit like a man preparing for his inevitable final stand. The actions scenes are smooth and intelligible, and seeing how Hacksaw Ridge just won an Oscar for its clarity in editing action sequences, is hopefully the start of a hard charge in the opposite direction of hyperactive editing.

We now have definitive proof that R-rated superhero films can be successful whether they’re crude or brutal, but they can’t be crude or brutal just for the sake of it. The X-Men universe has always been known for its social commentary, and hopefully the success of Logan will help realize a new niche for hyper-focused, character study dramas that involve comic book characters living in very real worlds.

Logan was a brutal,somber and entertaining film which was different from another other X-Men movie and followed in the steps of The Dark Knight pretty well.

Lets talk about how the R-rating worked in this film,i would say for the character Wolverine it was awesome,the slashing(action),gore and language was better because of it but in the beginning it felt a bit forced as the first line of the movie is an "F" bomb,but after a few minutes everything felt natural.

The plot is very simple and very small which was good as the movie dives into deep character emotions & developments as Wolverine is old and bitter and i found it interesting how he was reluctant throughout the film and was only helping the girl in this movie to like get rid of her,but he isn't all bad as Logan cares for professor X & the their relationship is different from other films and for this dark and gritty movie it was well needed.

Although the tone of this movie was dark,gritty & somber there is some humor and fun to be had in this movie even if it's keep at a minimum,were humor was needed the movie did it nicely.The action was on point and i loved every bit of it,from chase scenes to the slashing the action was well done & glorious.Now the characters in this movie all had some purpose and meaning to their roles especially X-23(the little girl who is helped by Logan),she was awesome in her action sequences & her acting was good,Charles Xavier was also good in this movie as it shows him as an old,tired and beaten down Professor X who isn't as wise as he was and it was very interesting to see the growth or struggle of the character.

Hugh Jackman was amazing as always as Logan and his character is pitiful,bitter and you almost wonder if he is still a hero as he refuses to help people and doesn't are about anyone expect Charles and doesn't almost care about X-23 and the film portrays & explains why he is like that and it is very satisfying.

Another reason why this movie works and why it's so different in the superhero genre is that this film is sad and so emotional especially in the 1st and 3rd act of the movie,and since its a grounded movie the tone works nicely.What annoys me in this movie is the 2nd act whereby the film becomes a bit boring & since it was a more grounded movie it focus on some real world themes which sometimes worked and sometimes didn't & you start to notice that the movie is too long and some scenes that could have been cut out,but other than that the movie is fine.

Logan was a fascinating movie full of great action,emotion and depth,this was the Wolverine movie that makes a fitting end to Hugh Jackman's 17 year run as Logan.

Logan has set the standard of where X-Men movies should be heading. It's great to have fun and superpowers, but a solid storyline and excellent performances far outweighs those themes.

It is loosely based off the "Old Man Logan" comic book series but does bring something new to the table that is amazing. Also, the acting is amazing. But to conclude this all, it is a must see for older audiences who are a fan of this hacking and slashing hero and want to see his final chapter.

But nothing could prepare me for how excellent the movie would end up being. It is truly the best X-Men movie yet, and perhaps the best superhero movie period. The script is great, the acting is great, the action is great, it goes on and on. The movie manages to humanize the cast, and build a truly emotional story that still maintains a sense of hope.
Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart completely own their roles, and Dafne Keen manages to hold her own despite being a child actress at the age of 12, with all three having incredible chemistry together.
And yes, this movie is R. It is super violent. But it is violent in a way that enhances rather than dominates, feeling gritty and grounded, unlike Deadpool which used over the top violence for dark comedy.
In the end, Logan is a masterpiece, and a perfect sendoff for both Hugh Jackman and the Wolverine character. It deserves to be the first superhero film to be nominated for best picture.

Each portraying there characters with true emotions and grit. It's no secret that the film had a huge legacy to keep on it's shoulders, mainly due to the other brilliant Xmen and origin stories that have been produced in the series by Marvel. Personally I feel the film did well to carry the legacy of its franchise, while still showing us the complex relationships between the characters, as well as the more real life relationships between us and people who are different. I hope that it highlight that story to other people who see the film. Moving back to the acting, I have to give a special mention to keen, as for me she stole the show, with her passionate yet fierce portrayal, it's clear in the film that she has been damaged, and she shows this incredibly well for such a young actress. I personally think she has places to go yet.
Moving to the set and scenery it was produced well, the use of CGI wasn't so blatantly obvious in the background scenery as in other films. Generally its holds up as a great action/science-fiction film, I personally recommend going to see it as quickly as you can.

The current crop of studio exec donkeys have no say, no balls, no brains anymore not to start putting an end to these self indulgent bloated overlong flicks! It's an across the board rampant problem. This thing would do better at 90 minutes, and don't make the argument it has been doing just fine as is because it can always be better. These filmmakers can't even turn in a reasonable length cut anymore and are too stupid to realize we out here are sick and tired of sitting through their padded formulaic slogs. The only people satisfied by it are pushover geeks, shills in the jackass critics herd, or those who haven't seen many movies in their lives. Those of us not in one of those three categories find the formula so very, very tired. Little girl and tough guy. Never seen that before. R rated comic book movie as western? The novelty wears off in the first twenty minutes. This director has made good movies, most notably the excellent "Copland" (10 rating here), so he knows what he's doing. And Jackman is a good actor and big star, so why can't he make a single good adult movie? "The Prestige" was an almost, good right up until the end. "Prisoners" sure as ---- was not! You look at the track record of big action-drama stars over the years, everyone from McQueen to Eastwood to Ford, and so many others and all made many venerable movies which hold up for all audiences. That's how they became big stars. Now a physical look and a superhero franchise falsely give an actor that status. It's not legit. * The "Deadpool" short/scene tease playing with the feature is awful! The audience (the built-in audience that is) did not react at all. No laughs, no clapping, nothing. Dead silence. Meaning they also thought it sucks! That character and new franchise along with its actor are a degenerate embarrassment no matter what the geek legions say. Expand

This review may seem vague, but it's all in the spirit of keeping spoilers out!

-

Logan is arguably the best movie in the X-men series to date! It has everything needed for the character to come to life on screen. Logan is foul mouthed, violent, compassionate, and ultimately running on fumes during this chapter in his life. Charles is dealing with severe medical issues, and trying to not kill everyone around him through siezures. Laura is trying to find an identity, but had trouble due to how she was "raised". The villains aren't your super powered monsters, but more akin to psychopaths. Peirce and Dr. Rice do what they think is right, but in the worst way possible. The emotion seen from all of the characters, and how they interact may seem hamfisted at times, but for the most part, it's done excellently. A must watch, and DEFINITELY a must buy!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was actually really excited to see this movie, mainly because of all of the positive things I had seen and heard about it. I came away thinking that the action was cool, I liked the interaction and development between Logan and Charles, and I liked the unfiltered dialogue. However, as a whole, I thought the movie was pretty terrible. It was immediately obvious when they stayed in the farm house that the whole family would die (and that weight didn't really seem to bother Logan). The other mutant kids were all pretty useless and stupid too. Why did they all gang up to defeat the human villain instead of actually doing anything useful to help Wolverine fight X24? I mean, they showed that they actually had some useful and cool abilities but nope... just going to watch X24 kill Wolverine. Oh, and when they showed the Adamantium bullet, you knew that would come back. And that deus ex machina was actually terribly executed... If an adamantium bullet could actually kill them, how come any time they cut each other with their adamantium claws it could heal? WTF?!?! Oh and good **** lord was this movie too long... really really too long. By the end, I was laughing at parts that were supposed to be weighty, like the Shane speech lmfao. All in all... what the **** was everyone watching when they thought it was one of the best movies of the year? It was one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. Not the worst only because I recently watched Honey Dripper... Expand

Esta es La película de superheroes. Eso en el sentido mas visceral de la palabra. Aunque ya se ha hablado mucho sobre las similitudes que tiene esta obra con una de las más grandes de los videojuegos de la ultima época: The Last Of Us (2013) Tiene la crudeza y el manejo de la violencia perfecto (aunque en Logan la violencia esta mucho mas exagerada de igual manera se la lleva bien) y un argumento aunque fantasioso de igual manera es maduro.
En el sentido del guion yo lo sentí con las suficientes referencias para que un amante de los comics (lo suficientemente no arenoso) le guste y tampoco te sientes perdido si no has visto películas anteriores a esta, ya que solo necesitas saber de Wolverine solo lo de cultura general.
En las escenas de acción están repletas de sangre y no están tan sobreexplotadas como otras tantas. Para no entrar en terreno de spoilers las situaciones claves están muy bien desarrolladas y los giros que esperabas están ahí pero de igual manera te van a sorprender.
Los personajes son muy memorables y las actuaciones buenas de igual manera, aunque la traducción de Latinoamérica esta regular especialmente en el doblaje ya que está muy mexicanizada lo cual tiene que ver con la dirección de la película, mi recomendación es verla en idioma original, ya que gran parte está realizada en México y con la traducción pierde escancia . (Hay una situación con X-23 que será recordada por su traducción).
En la cuestión de la dirección de arte es absolutamente normal, salvo en momentos clave, nada para recordar.
En fin, es una muy buena pelicula de accion y sobre todo con una historia llevadera y memorable.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Last year’s Deadpool movie proved there is a market for more adult orientated and violent comic book movies and Logan backs that up with a movie that ranks amongst the best Marvel Studios have created. Set in the near future, in which mutants are no longer born, Logan (aka Wolverine) is driving a limousine for a living whilst caring for an ailing Charles Xavier. When he is contacted by a woman caring for a young girl, that she claims is her daughter, Logan and Xavier are forced out of hiding to in order to help.

Logan has is as much a western or a road as it is a superhero film and this really helps set it apart from what has started to become a slightly over-familiar structure for Marvel films. This approach also carries over into the action/fight scenes that, as well as being more bloody and brutal than you’ll see in other Marvel movies, rely less on CGI and are all the more effective for it. Hugh Jackman is as good as ever as Wolverine and the on screen chemistry between him, Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and Laura (the superb Dafne Keen) really helps give the movie a further edge by making it easy to actually care about what happens to these characters. If this is to be Jackman’s last appearance as Wolverine he’s certainly gone out on a high note.

Jackman and Stewart give stellar performances that make you believe that these are men on the ropes. You can feel the emotion and baggage each of them bear. The media has questioned whether superhero fatigue is setting in. What Logan does so well is that while it does depict characters that have super powers/abilities; it focuses on the human elements. What it's like to become older. Having responsibility for someone else thrust upon you. Wolverine's relationship with Laura (X-23) in particular is interesting to see develop over the course of the film. The film does kind of get bogged down in the 2nd act when they essentially find themselves on a road trip. But I was so invested in these characters by that point, that I was eager to see what happened next. The film is rated R and for good reason. If Deadpool is one end of the spectrum, Logan is on the other. The violence isn't comedic as it was in Deadpool. It accentuates and amplifies just how brutal Wolverine and his young ward can be. Logan is a great film that adds one more feather to Fox's cap after the success of Deadpool. It is my hope that Fox takes the right lessons from these two films in that with the right talent, direction, writing and respect of the source material, comic book films can be incredibly poignant.

It is a good try to make a comic book movie relevant to non-comic book fans. I enjoyed the performance by Hugh Jackman; he looks particular bad ass as an old, muscular man.

I get that they do fight go fight go and fight and go but they creators of this movie did it so well. I never felt bored or thought "why'd they do that? I don't like that part." The movie made it all feel like it was real life. I loved every single character and all those moments you didn't expect to happen but are realistic and don't feel forced. I loved this movie and is my favorite movie of Hugh Jackman. Better than BvS and The Avengers. Maybe even better than guardian's of the galaxy. It's up there with the dark night. For me, it might even be better than the dark night. Expand

Some of us liked X-Men 1-3 & DoFP. It seems we're a minority here.....

Most movies in it have been a mixed bag of good, great, bad and downright bizarre. In varying ratios. Logan, at long last tells a good complete story and does it well. They aren't saving this world this time. Just a handful of interesting colorful characters with simple straightforward goals. And character development. Nearly as much as all the other X-men films combined. By going this way it makes us so much more invested in the characters and the outcome. And as an end of an era sort of movie, no one is safe. Its a welcome change. This is not the most action packed X-men movie ever. Or the flashiest. Its been compared to old Western movies. Rightly so. But I think that makes it truer to the source material. Its capturing what was best about the comics. Oddly the best thing about Logan may just be the evenness of it all. Power balance and power creep is a huge problem in action movies these days. How many times can indestructible CG Superman punch CG Doomsday before we stop caring? Neither one is getting hurt in any meaningful way and the fight is dull until that changes. There are too many examples of that in modern movies to list. Here Logan is old. Doesn't heal as well. And he's met his match. No one is super OP. There's no deus ex machina moments in this film and the movie is so much better for it. The change to being R rated is a most welcome one. In addition to making the world feel more grounded, it really helps drive the stakes for the central characters home. Hopefully the franchise sticks to this new direction. Its just a shame they had to discover it in the last film for some key actors/characters. Expand

The fix must have been in on this one because it was awful- predictable, clichéd, nonsensical, small attempts at humor fell flat, boring physical settings, even the violence wasn't interesting.

First off, this is NOT your average PG-13 superhero movies. There are intense violent moments of dismemberment, harsh language, and dark subjects. I highly recommend not taking any children to see this.

The actual movie is amazing! Hugh

The actual movie is amazing! Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart really nails their performance as aged Wolverine and Prof. X. You can feel them trying to cope with what they have become. The girl who acted as Laura did an amazing job as well. She stays silent through most of the movie, but her expression alone is enough to tell the story. The whole movie itself does a great job of "the end of the mutants" feeling. Definitely a must-see movie, just not for kids

"Logan is The Dark Knight of the mutant-filled X-franchise"
"Explicit violence and salty language (...) adds a bit of much-needed fizz to the Wolverine sub-franchise."
"Every frame feels perfectly rendered and absolutely necessary to the narrative trajectory."
"Perhaps the best X-Men movie yet."
"This is honestly one of the best comic book movies of all time."

My turn, poopyheads.

Calling Logan the best X-Men movie because it's gritty and dark is like saying Revenge of the Sith is the best Star Wars movie because it's the most 'darkest'.

Logan is the worst movie I have seen in a long time. The senseless violence, the flat characters, and the painfully slow pacing take it in that path, and the utter and excruciating lack of plot set that in stone. I am absolutely astounded that this is getting good reviews, I honestly thought it would wither and die like Green Lantern or Fantastic Four(2015). Given the (the following words hurt my hands as I write them) 'critical acclaim' this movie is receiving, let me substantiate my review.

Plot: All through the movie people are dying and things are happening. But what is the purpose of it all? Good storytelling does not consist in throwing events into someone's face, good storytelling is making those events matter. All through the movie right until the end I kept asking myself two questions: 'So what?' and 'Why do I care?' And those two questions are the whole basis of good stories. Is it that hard to ask for a movie with characters I can care about? A compelling plot that at lease makes sense? To my dismay, I have read several reviews comparing this with Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy and I cannot in any way comprehend how people can insult Christopher Nolan to such a degree.

Violence: Clearly inspired by Deadpool, this movie features waterfalls of blood. Senseless violence that is neither fun nor necessary. The Passion of Christ, Se7en, and most Scorsese and Tarantino movies are good examples of a good way to employ violence in movies. This is a great example of a terrible way.

Characters: The only real character in the whole movie is Professor X, everybody else is flat and devoid of real purpose.

Pacing: Stupidly long and extremely poorly paced.

I do not recommend this movie to anyone.

Every single bad guy is a white man who is terminated violently. There's a farming family in plaid, who are black instead of white. The main baddy is a blue eyed man with a British accent. There's a rainbow coalition of children to save. And because they can't quite yet portray preteen LGBTQTx2 characters, they are named the "Transigen" kids who wear t-shirts with rainbows on them... the overall lesson is for Wolverine to teach a feral young woman (who of course is the world's most powerful fighter, weighing in at 85lbs) to be compassionate, but not a single white male is spared their life. Hamfisted political dreck at its worst, a boring story at best. I love Wolverine but this is just as overrated and stupid as The Dark Knight Rises, with slightly less plot holes and dumber politics. Far more interested in virtue signaling than telling a good story. Predictable through and through. Missed opportunities in both fight choreography and tone. The setting in nonsense. Doesn't fit in with the world set up in the other X films. No better than the first movie, and worse than the second. Jackman saves it from being a fail. More humorous than expected. Meh. Hollywood in continued decline. Lowest common denominator moralizing abounds. Expand

The action scenes themselves could be the whole movie and I would be just as happy. The story was an incredibly interesting take on the X-Men universe, though I will say that one might be a tad disappointed that it doesn't live up to the Old Man Logan comics that the movie is based off of. As a fan of Old Man Logan, I feel this, but not to an extent that I'm truly taken aback by it. It's a very respectful Wolverine movie that I can connect with, and a wonderful sendoff for Hugh Jackman's performance as the character. Expand

Logan is an absolutely perfect movie on every level. If this is the last time we will ever see Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman in the X-Men movies, I'm glad they got to go out like this.
