Logan

Thank God it's not a Marvel movie! I went to see Logan in the theater with absolutely no expectations and I really got Logan. I don't think any of the action in this movie is important at all, in the end the journey isn't important either. What's important is Logan himself and his life. I keep coming back to it three days after the screening, so it was definitely worth it. We get a summation of the entire Wolverine saga in the form of a tortured old man who basically just wants to live out his days in peace, which of course he's not meant to do, because suddenly he's got a tiny mutant to take care of in addition to a retired mutant. Plus, this little mutant is incredibly similar to him. Hugh Jackman is an incredible actor, the things he can play, all the emotions that were certain to rage within his character floated to the surface and the viewer absolutely knew how he was feeling, even without any big emotional display. A great farewell to an icon. A very strong 4 stars, maybe I'll bump it up to 5 after another viewing. (03/03/2017)

An admirable personal devotion to an iconic figure that far surpasses all those who have been allowed to step out of groped pages and onto the big screen, in the care of a mediocre (at best) executor who rides a comfortable rating and grinds the hero's blood so thoroughly that the path to a readable ending through instant depression is too obvious. The fact that a little girl in a rage blows up a military commando is fine, but the fact that a bitter road movie with a western background leaves me emotionally empty is not. But at least Fox (un)consciously checked off the "The Last of Us" adaptation. (08/03/2017)

There are many movies to give audience a chance to understand the character of Wolverine. In general, we all know what Hugh Jackman’s intentions were. Still he was one of the first superheroes to appear in Hollywood in the late 1990s and deserves tremendous respect for it. However, after all these years with Wolverine, I understand very well why the creators wanted to end Wolverine's movie journey. Once and for all. Until this day, I haven’t fully comprehended the films’ right order. True, I never really tried to find out but the movies didn’t make it easy for me either. Fortunately, the premise is very clear in this movie and it is not difficult. Quite the opposite. Hugh Jackman said his goodbyes with style, of course, so you can expect to see a great action ride with a main hero who in this film convinced me why I should never forget him. Thank you, Wolverine, and good bye! (18/12/2017)

I'm utterly destroyed and searching in vain for the right words. Gritty, brutal, suspenseful, action-packed, incredibly cool, with an awesome Western twist... That all sounds pretty lame compared to the movie. In short, it's an absolutely spectacular experience that should not be missed by anyone who enjoys watching movies. Whether you're into comic book movies or not. Of course, you'll enjoy it a bit better if you're in the know, but it can be seen on its own as well. Hats off to Jackman, he did some really incredible stuff. This is what I mean by "giving it your all". The music is perfect too. And that girl, Laura... Dear God! (03/03/2017)

An action flick for adults that works with characters and emotions as though it was an epic drama, Logan is set in realistic locations overflowing with atmosphere, with action scenes worthy of James Cameron and the most effective, ultra-dark music Marco Beltrami has ever made (though not suitable to be listened to on its own) plus one soundtrack hit from Tarantino’s Django Unchained. It’s only once in a few years that I give five stars to a movie based on a comic book. (01/03/2017)
