Review of Logan (2017) by Reilly B — 24 May 2017
If you are looking for a nostalgic, emotionally milking, "sad getting sadder" type of movie, I suggest you watch this film or Up. I tried watching it with my girlfriend. We both ended up annoyed, me over the plot, and her over me waking her up from a 135 min nap (she fell asleep within the first 5mins).
The Pros: great picture quality, greater character development of Logan, and great acting (especially by Sir Patrick Stewart with his character's challenge of Alzheimer's disease).
The Cons: plot holes: 1.) why no one gave a rat's ass about Caliban. 2.) who and where was Laura's mum 3.) why was Logan's body just now rejecting his adamantium 4.) and why was the most viable option for Laura's survival to leave her fate up to a bunch of psychotic prepubescent bastards.
Another issue is the audience this reaches to. I guess elderly people, rebellious 8 year olds and single parent fathers could empathize with this flick. Over all I'd say its main purpose was to get off nostalgic adrenaline junkies, while finally wrapping up an almost endless series.
