Review of Logan (2017) by Mark D — 30 Dec 2017
God, this was depressing as hell. It was nothing like a "normal" marvel superhero type movie. It was not fun in any way.
Some people would say this is all good, and in a few ways they are right. But the relentless feeling of impending doom that emanates from this movie really gets to you.
It was hard to see Logan/Wolverine falling apart like he was.
It was hard to see Charles Xavier / Professor X as a doddering forgetful old man.
Hugh Jackman sells it well, like he always does. He's all in as the angry old Logan.
There isn't much of a story here. It's really just a device to get to the ending we all knew was coming after all these years.
The girl is a crazy little bugger, who makes up for Logans failings.
The other mutant kids(hardly a spoiler) show up and do very little. Especially in the end, which seemed contrived to me, but it had to be as it was.
Overall a decent film, of course, but not something I would ever want to watch again.
