This is the Unforgiven of superhero movies, a brutal yet tender portrayal of former heroes growing old. Logan is tired and world weary, waiting for death to take away his pain. Charles is 90, riddled with drugs to mute his mind, his "super weapon." Despite their friendship their relationship is fractured. Into their lives comes a new mutant and a road trip begins.

I don't want to say much more, having given away a little of the premise already explored in the films trailers. This is a tough, violent and sad film with few moments of humour. There is action but not of the blockbuster kind, one key car chase is like something from a 70's thriller.

This is the swan song of Logan and Charles, both actors giving it their all in their final performances as these characters. To bring them back after this film would undermine their work and the story here.

The film is brilliant and I can't recommend it enough - don't expect a traditional X-Men movie and you will be blown away. If the film itself were a mutant I would say its genes had been spliced with Mad Max and Shane, with a little bit of Children of the Corn (and I mean that in a good way). Excelsior!

@faithful I believe it's heavily assumed that X-24 is Daken. But yes, this story was brutal, didn't slow down on the punches, was emotional, and shows a world still divided on mutants after all these centuries. Logan mentioned there not being any mutants in 25 years -- 2004, which is around when M-Day happened in the comics. For any comic fans: yes, Laura exists in present time, and is fully-grown (as she is Wolverine in the comics), so treat this as an alternate universe storyline. It was absolutely phenomenal, and I hope to see more dystopic future movies for other anti-heroes.

@genesisx Deadpool 2 had a bit of post-apocalyptic future in it

@lee-brown-barrow It did SEEM like their swan song, but funny enough Marvel pulled them both back for at least one more run lol. Charles in Multiverse of Madness, and Wolverine will be in Deadpool 3. They're both so iconic in the roles its hard for people to let go of them.

I believe that I am about to disagree with quite a few people now. You see, I did not like this movie.

Not that this came as much of a surprise to me. What I got was pretty much what I expected. From a technical point of view the movie is quite well done. Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart are doing good jobs as always. The action scenes are good. The cinematography is not at all bad. If you are into tragic drama and do not mind the super hero twist of the movie then this is a movie for you. The technical qualities is why this movie gets any stars at all from me. If I would judge it by story only then it would have gotten zero, null, nada, nicths, rien, ingenting.

For me it was depressing, boring and not at all fun to watch. The only reason I watched it is because I, as a X-Men fan, simply had to watch it as well as having it in my collection but I would have been happier it this movie had never been made.

Wolverine is more or less an unpleasant drinking bum clad in filthy ragged clothes. Professor X is half insane and apparently dangerous to himself and the people around him. We get absolutely no explanation as to how this sad state of affairs.

The entire movie is dark in spirit with the X-Men all but died out and Wolverine and Professor X just waiting to die. Then in comes this female child who later turns out to be a female version of Wolverine. She pretty much lacks any form of charisma and she and Wolverine spends almost the entire time in a state of conflict, much due to Wolverine who seems to think everyone should go fuck themselves so that he can continue to self destruct.

The bad guys are the usual evil corporation doing experiments on X-Men, genetics etc. Supposedly they were behind the almost extermination of X-Men but of course they keep their own little army of “enhanced” humans that doggedly harasses Wolverine & Co. There are some nice action sequences but there is really no good overall boss. No one with enough Charisma to take the role of the main adversary unless you count X-24 who only took part in a few parts of the movie.

By the way, why the fuck do Wolverine, Laura as well as X-24 have to grunt like horny monkeys when they fight?

The story is rather predictable with no major surprises, little depth and low on logic. A typical Hollywood drama. Not really anything to write home about.

The movie is just so depressing from start to finish. As a last farewell to Wolverine and Professor X it is almost insulting. I know a lot of people seem to like it but I cannot understand why. At least not if you are a X-Men fan.

@pjonsson actually you have some valid points... I agree bout the fighting sequences with the over the top grunts.. Professor Wheels role was next to not even needed, however, [spoiler]it was time for him to GO! Same goes for Hugh, TIME FOR HIM TO GOOOOO![/SPOILER]. Both had to hasten if you ask me so that [spoiler]X-Men: New Mutants[/spoiler] would be able to start to shine and keep making bank for Marvel Comics! The whole farm of [spoiler]little mutants that even Professor X couldn't find in his machine[/spoiler]<br /> <br /> In the end it was prob my least favorite Wolverine flick, but could still enjoy it. Oh yeah, had to give it a couple extra stars becuase Hugh still looks the age when he was first casted as the Wolverine!

Rather watch this than a regurgitated X-Men movie. That recipe is so stale, no wonder those movies get low ratings these days.

Wow.

I was expecting this to be really good, but damn.... "Logan" is great. I'm not sure if it's the heat of the moment but (for me) "Logan" is one of the best superhero movies of all time, right next to "The Dark Knight".

"Logan" goes beyond the typical superhero movie where the good guys need to stop the bad ones from 'destroying the world'. "Logan" does what comic book movies should be doing right now. This is an independent movie where occasionally appear claws. The screenplay is beautiful, the performances are perfect and the action sequences were incredible.

I have not felt so much emotion watching a movie for a long time. Happiness, sadness, proud.... I cried 3 or 4 times and shead a tear in many moments. This film moved me in a very strong way.

Were 17 years of Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart in these roles and "Logan" was the best farewell to these characters played by them. Right from the first scene we see that this is the Wolverine we always wanted.

"Logan" explores very well this Wolverine. Hugh Jackman's performance allowed us to felt every single one of Wolverine's emotions throughout the all movie. Patrick Stewart was spetacular and I won't be surprised that in end of 2017 his performance was one of the best in the year. Dafne Keen was a good surprise, wasn't expecting her to be so good. The supporting cast was also perfect.

In the end of the film I knew there would be no post-credit scene. However, I decided to stay until the end to honor this beautiful movie. Thank you James Mangold, thank you Patrick Stewart and thank you very much, Hugh Jackman. You were the best Logan we could ask for.

**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.

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 his medication, it's all pretty routine and low-key. That is, until "Laura" (Dafne Keen) pays him visit - and she 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 safety. 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. 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 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.
