Review of Logan (2017) by Tayler S — 26 Mar 2017
Cinematically beautiful... but...
As a huge fan of comics and having read X-Men since being a kid, the old man Logan series was an extremely exciting prospect to the big screen, a change from cinematic positivity to the grime of what it would actually be like to be in a world wrought with violence from people more powerful than humans.
The director and entire cast did an absolutely incredible job. the cinematography is head and shoulders above any other X-Men film to date. absolutely stunning.
However, I still cannot decide if I was happy with the ending or the progression of the storyline. I understand and get why the story needed to have a close however I would rather have seen something similar to Dexter (minus the reappearance) where it is left to fan understanding and interpretation.
SPOILERS.
Logan and Wolverine are not necessarily the same entity in my mind. That is, if you gave him a reason to leave humanity, to be in the wilderness alone to die without a pack you'd be killing the hero 'Wolverine' without necessarily having to kill Logan as a person.
In summation, regardless of how I feel about the story arc it is far too well done of a movie to give it anything but a full 5 stars.
