Logan has gone through the ringer over the years, and I'm not just talking about the adventures. He's been attached to a franchise that has been a rollercoaster of quality since 2000. He had to fight a disfigured version of deadpool atop a shitty CGI nuclear power plant in Origins, dealt with the Juggernaught in The Last Stand, and fought a terrible CGI monster in The Wolverine. But here we are, with his last movie, simply entitled Logan. Such a simple title fits such a simple and humble movie. Hugh Jackman's performance in this film is arguably Oscar worthy; he puts so much into his final outting as the iconic X-men character that it feels real. Its doubtful this film will get recognized due to its status as "a superhero movie" but one can hope. But Logan isn't really a superhero movie; its a devestating tale of a deterioating legend on his last breath trying to find a purpose in life. Logan is by far the best superhero movie since The Dark Knight Rises (and you could make a case that its better) and looking at the line up from both DC and the MCU, I doubt they'll produce anything that'll top what James Mangold has done here.

So what did you think of Logan?
Was it the send off you were hoping for?
Or were you let down?

I'm not a huge Comic Book Geek, but the super hero movie genre has always excited me, and always will. I do not enjoy when people argue over CBMs like they're a religion, but i guess thats how most movie geeks are.

i mean really really really had to, then
DC, baby :)
