Review of Logan (2017) by Kaung S — 08 Nov 2017

Logan is the latest film to feature the x-men and takes a much darker and serious tone. Set some time in the future, the x-men are gone and Logan and Caliban, another mutant, are hiding out on the Mexican border and caring for Charles Xavier, who has a deteriorating brain disease. When a woman approaches Logan asking for help they finding themselves heading north to help an extraordinary young girl. This is the strongest, bloodiest and most heartfelt X-Men film to date. Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart excel in their roles and make years of watching their characters develop and change over the course of so many films feel worthwhile. Stephen Merchant is very good as Caliabn and Dafne Keen is excellent as Laura, giving a powerful and emotional performance and performing a lot of her stunts herself. The fight scenes themselves are very well done, bloody and well choreographed without the use of shaky cam which makes them very enjoyable to watch.

All in all this is, in my opinion, one of the best super hero films I've ever seen and if this were the last X-Men film ever made, you couldn't ask for a better conclusion.
