In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X in a hideout on the Mexican border. But Logan's attempts to hide from the world and his legacy are upended when a young mutant arrives, pursued by dark forces.
All but exhausted after years of fighting and hiding, "Logan" (Hugh Jackman) just wants a peaceful life. Aside from the occasional trip to Mexico to help the sun-shy "Caliban" (Stephen Merchant) with the medication for their very special guest, it's all pretty routine and low-key. That is, until, he finds himself embroiled with the teenage “Laura" (Dafne Keen) pays him who has a mutation just like his. Who is she? Of course, she doesn't come alone. "Pierce" (Boyd Holbrook) has been charged by scientist "Rice" (Richard E. Grant) to track her down and capture her. It now falls to our eponymous hero to fend them off and get her to the safety of Canada. What follows now are several highly polished, but frankly repetitive, escapades as their enemies close in. Sure, the effects are great and the production quality is top drawer, but the flaw with someone who has (albeit limited, by this stage) self healing powers is that the same, or slightly tweaked, scenarios happening over and over again start to get a bit dull after a while. It’s a bit like playing rock, paper, scissors only you just keep drawing scissors every time. Jackman looks as tired with the role as his character is with the relentlessness of his existence and though quite easy on the eye, Holbrook isn't up to much (I kept thinking he was Charlie Hunnam). I was never the biggest fan of this franchise once they split it out to follow "Wolverine". Jackman is an hugely charismatic actor but his character isn't remotely sophisticated or engaging here and though there is some humour to be found, for the most part I found this an action-packed but pretty long and unremarkable piece of cinema.
**Logan tones down the effects and scale to focus on the emotion and pain of its characters, making it one of the best films in the X-Men saga.** James Mangold strikes again! Logan is considered by many to be one of the greatest superhero films ever made. While I don’t feel as strongly as many about this film, its quality is undeniable. Jackman and Stewart’s performances were the best of the franchise. The story adapts the Old Man Logan comic to depict an aged weary Wolverine that is more jaded and bitter than ever. This new world where the X-Men have all perished or disappeared is more dangerous than ever for mutants. But Logan’s heart is slowly restored by a young girl on the run that seems destined to follow in his footsteps unless he finds a way to give her a new future and hope. Mangold’s vision and directing fill the film with emotion and pain. Logan’s suffering and hopelessness are tangible and felt in every moment of the film. While I missed the vibe and characters of the other X-Men movie, Logan was an excellent film that gave a meaningful conclusion to Wolverine’s long and heartbreaking journey.
The best movie I have ever seen
"Logan" served as a poignant and fitting conclusion to the Marvel version of Wolverine and the X-Men. The movie delved into deeper and darker themes, aligning with the intended premise of the film. While I miss the excitement of the X-Men from my childhood, this movie provided a sense of closure that was necessary to bring the chapter to a satisfying end. Unlike other X-Men movies that failed to evoke excitement, "Logan" managed to offer a sense of peace and finality. It successfully wrapped up the storylines and character arcs, providing a conclusive end to the X-Men saga. Overall, the film took the necessary steps to accomplish its goal of closing the chapter of the X-Men universe, delivering a grand and conclusive finale.
This movie was really good. I don't know what to say. Just watch it haha The western vibe was really good, as was the writing and all the performances. James Mangold's best film since **_3:10 to Yuma_** I'd say. Definitely give it a watch. My only gripe is the boob flash from one of Logan's customers, as it felt wholly unnecessary, but didn't soil the whole movie for me.
81/100 What a great swan song for the old and ailing Wolverine. Far more a drama than an action picture (although it is loaded with some awesome action) the relationships between Charles (Professor X), Laura (Logan's genetic daughter) and the reluctant Logan (who would rather everyone just left him alone), is complex, heartfelt and, at times, heartbreaking. Truly excellent entertainment! -- DrNostromo.com
