Hugh Jackman reprises the role of James "Logan" Howlett, a.k.a. Wolverine in this latest, and possibly last outing. Set in a future where mutants have nearly all been wiped out the surviving groups are on the run and hiding from the law, this post-apocalyptic world is slightly reminiscent of the Death of Wolverine/ Old Man Logan comic arcs. His powers are failing, his friends are nearly all gone - in fact he's babysitting Professor X - Charles Xavier (Sir Patrick Stuart), whose powers have nearly gone and is suffering from dementia as well as other problems. Wolverine has a chance meeting that leads him to discover a young mutant with very similar powers to himself. He takes her, begrudgingly, under his wing and makes a run for safety. The plot isn't too much deeper than this as it's a character driven film which relies on the emotions and development to drive it rather than a overtly complex plot.This is a dark and bleak film - if the X-Men films were family friendly, this follows R-Rated superhero films and is definitely aimed at adults. The opening of the films sets this up brilliantly, in the past you'd expect to see Wolverine take down threats, whereas in this he is left bloody and bruised at the hands of 'nobody' thugs - he's gone from undefeatable to extremely fragile and vulnerable. There are adult themes of mortality, fear, pain, uncertainty, family, legacy, responsibilities, guilty and loneliness present here. While a little pre-knowledge of the characters is helpful, it is not vital to the understanding and enjoyment of the film - this could be plucked off the shelf by anybody and watched. Visually the film interesting, both drab and raw while also having the brightness and contrast maxed out. Audibly the film is great, there are chunks of the film where you don't need dialogue to follow it, the sound and score bring enough emotion to emphasise the visuals. Acting performances throughout are quality, from Jackman and Stewart who drive the film, to Dafne Keen (X-23), Boyd Holbrook, and even Stephen Merchant and Richard E. Grant, who you wouldn't expect to show up, deliver and add to the journey. High on emotion and action, and ignoring spandex and neon's this is a great film and deserves all the plaudits it gets. Some people won't like it as they have gotten too comfortable with the Wolverine they have seen on screen over the last 15+ years and not matured with it - well this is a matured Wolverine and while it may not be the death the comic's led us to believe he'd get - it is a fitting swansong for the character we've had, that always felt more NSFW than the rest of the X-Men. If this is Jackman's last outing as Wolverine then this mic-drop is a definite "come and have a go if you think you can do this" as he delivers so much in this film. Take what you thought you expected and leave it at the door; this film takes superhero films to a different more gritty level - crossing genre's with chase movies, dramas, thrillers to a name a few. This wasn't and hasn't been my favourite superhero film - but I can recognise something outstanding when I see it and take my hat off and firmly award it 9 out of 10.

Logan is superhero genre at it's best, a great and worthy end to wolverine's trilogy. this is the kind of violence this character always needed. Though the violence is extremely satisfying, Logan is not just violence, this is a character driven, perfectly written movie about the heroes who can not stop being heroes, even at the last days of their life. it is emotional, brutal, sometimes beautiful and perfectly directed . music is remarkable and the acting is excellent. it's impossible not to mention Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart performances as the best in their careers, and dafne keen seems very promising too(I really hope they make movie based on x-23, her comics are great). this is wolverine's end and it ends at its best, exactly how it should be. if you're into superheroes DON'T MISS THIS MASTERPIECE.

Logan is the final movie in terms of Hugh Jackman's wolverine and possibly Patrick Stewart's Charles.In an alternative timeline all of the X-Men are gone. Wolverine and Charlas are the only ones that are left as Wolverine is getting old and week in terms of heal, while Charlas is getting sick.Both Charles and Logan discover a girl by the name of X-23 who has the same powers as Logan. But unlike logan she only has two claws and they must keep her safe and unite her with the next generation of mutants.This was a satisfying pay off as Hugh Jackman's last movie as Wolverine, when there was dreama or action it didn't feel forced and the best part is that the movie is R rated.If you loved both Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman as their characters or just generally loved their movies. I am telling you now you are in for a treat,

The movie obscure in the visual connections was a movie with no subtitles. The movie titled 'Logan' did not have 'cam' written on it but 'ts' which luckily we did not find out. The Logan actor is 'Hugh Jackman' who has played in the 'X-men' series and 'Les Miserables'. The actor who was nominated for awards like 'Bafta' and 'Golden Globes' due to his on screen personalities has brought us memorable movies like The Prestige and 'The Greatest Showman' In the world. The later of 'Hugh's' movie titled 'The Greatest Showman' we saw in cinema hall. 'Logan' is then the movie that 'Hugh Jackman' did not end in our memory.
