LOGAN (2017)
Featuring: Hugh Jackman; Patrick Stewart; Daphne Keen
Director: James Mangold
This movie is the final chapter of the X-Men's Wolverine. Or sort of. These days one cannot really tell if it is the end of something or not. Just think of the Star Wars / Star Trek franchises over the years. You never know what the movie makers will come up with next.
Be that as it may. Logan aka Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) hides out with Professor X (Patrick Stewart) in a junk yard near the Mexican border. The plan is that, as soon as they can scrape together enough money, to disappear into the Mexican wilderness for ever. But then a young mutant by the name of Laura (Daphne Keen) shows up on their doorstep and their lives are turned up-side-down yet again but this time fatally so.
Once again, as with previous outings of the Wolverine, it is very violent and bloody messy (literally) with lots of chopped off heads and limbs flying around. But if you are immune to that sort of thing (which I believe all fans of the X-Men are) you'll enjoy it. Like usual the action is fast and furious with a better than average story line. The plot has just enough twists and turns to make it not-boring but also not to complicated to follow.
I rate it 3 out of 5 stars.
