Review of Logan (2017) by Goo4You — 08 Mar 2017

In an era where nearly all reviews either go full-on negative, or the wishy-washy middle of the road, Logan is not a title what should be there. The movie is in the same vein of gritty realism the Christopher Nolan Batman movies highlighted. The script is well written, though a tad unbalanced at times (the investment in a credible villain with more than a passing reason for be evil) shines in all the right places throughout the series.

The rating is warranted; this is a hard R and shines for it. Blood and gore for the sake of Blood and gore does not make a movie good, but when used to TELL the story as opposed to appease the L.C.D (Lowest Common Denominator) does. Logan does this. I'm no way a squeamish person, but there are moments where I involuntarily winched at the carnage taking place.

Worth the view, and a stellar way to send Hugh Jackman's Wolvie off into the proverbial sunset.
