Review of Logan (2017) by Tyger44 — 17 Mar 2017
Before seeing Logan I was very exciting. 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.
