Logan

Hello Everyone,

Spoiler Alert!!!!!

     In case you guys haven't notice I've been seeing a lot of movies lately. But I have been busy to write them down. Recently I have found the time to talk a little about them. I hope you all are enjoying these reviews because I am having fun writing them. Now for this review let's bring out your inner wolverine and do some damage to some very bad people. Let's get started with the review of "Logan" which is the final film with Hugh Jackman as the character.

     I didn't know what to expect from this movie I wasn't sure where they were going to go with the story but I really like what they did with the X-Men franchise and the Logan character. What I enjoyed was that in a way it was the same old Logan that we all loved. You know the take no rap from anyone but at the same time it was also a different Logan. A Logan that has seen and lost so much and has lost all of his friends, the people he considered family. The movie allowed Hugh Jackman to play a different side to Logan a side that we haven't seen before. And he played it to perfection as usual. Along with Jackman "Logan" also gave Patrick Stewart a chance to show a different side to Professor X. A side of a man that has seen his entire life's work destroyed. A man that is so broken that you wouldn't think he could possibly be fixed. But like Logan it was also still the same Professor X. The man that will always be there for his students no matter how much they tell him to go away or stop it. Both Jackman and Stewart are outstanding as their characters as always. And the young actress playing X23 also known as Laura was amazing for one so young and new to the industry. I thought she captured the rage and intensity as Logan displays which is perfect as X23 is supposed to be a clone of Logan. I also thought that she worked well with Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart and has terrific chemistry with them. I just thought the whole cast was great and there was no weak leak among them. 

     The only thing I was a little disappointed in was after the credits I thought they were going to show a claw raise from the grave or have someone stumble upon the empty grave. Just wanted that it would have been awesome. But I think the reason they didn't do that was so the sudience knows and is aware that this is the last film for Jackman playing the character.l And that way they won't expect to see him in the next film. Still it was disappointing because it meant that it was an end to an era. But I like the introduction of X23 and the other kid mutants because just as something ends, something new begins. And if you pay close attention all the powers if the nre mutants were those of the originals. And it proves that Logan wasn't the only mutant that they cloned. While I am saddened to watch Jackman and Stewart stepping down from their roles that they've made so iconic I am also excited to see what is next for the new characters and the franchise in general. 

     "Logan" was a great ending for Jackman and Stewart to go out on. And all the while being an amazing ending it was also a great beginning to a brand new series of film. Let's hope the filmmakers get a chance to dive deeper into brand new characters. And critics were right Jackman and Stewart saved their best for last.
