Logan

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. (03/01/2017)

Everything has a price - Singer knew it at first. And Mangold is now paying her interest on all the excesses, cardboard, digital cotton wool and unfinished work. Brutal, explicit, socially dystopian, yet very nostalgic and sensitive to the characters that the film undresses from leotards and impales them with deadly diseases, coughs and doubts. No, Mangold is not an elite director. Sometimes the dark tone is on the brink of exaggeration, sometimes you can really see inside of it, but in the last shot it hit me as deeply as any other X-Men movie. It is in a way an e-Revolution. Logan uses it not only for vulgarisms and unusual anatomical clarity, but also for opening up a very unhappy vision of the future, in which heroism is just a dull memory from scuffed comic books. America in 2029 built from hints, but very current hints. Children of Men in a superhero version. Logan hurts. And that is good. A film for pessimists who can't stop believing. (03/01/2017)

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! (12/18/2017)

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. (03/08/2017)
