Movie review - Logan

After 17 years of playing one of the most popular characters in the X-Men franchise, Hugh Jack man (Wolverine/ Logan) naturally has a lot riding on his hunky shoulders in Logan, the third and last instalment in the solo Wolverine series. Don’t expect to see the X-Men in all their glory because the characters have aged and been through the fires. Xavier’s declining mental and physical health (he’s in his 90's now) and Logan’s ageing body almost make us feel sorry for the two characters. While Logan earns a living by driving a limousine, getting drunk and getting into fights, Xavier's disintegrating mind compels him to stay sedated in order to keep his colossal psychic powers under control. The film has a lot of gory scenes, there’s plenty of bloodshed thanks to Logan’s notorious adamantium claws. But what shines through the action are the number of emotional moments between the lead characters.
