LOGAN: Claws it's Way Out of Wolverine Formula

"Logan" takes place in the future (2029 specifically) where the Wolverine is a misguided man, with troubles of his own. Taking care of the sickly Professor X (Patrick Stewart) and the albino Caliban (Stephen Merchant). Too add more to Logan's plate, he ends up babysitting a young girl who looks to be a mutant, hiding from deadly forces.
The acting is superb here but specifically Stewart who wields damaging powers, gives an achingly powerful performance. The relationships that take place throughout the movie are heartwarming but also tense, as almost every scene, evil lurks around the corner. From an absolutely devastating incident in a families home to the over-crowded Casinos where Professor X loses control, you almost never get a time to breath.
This is not the "Logan" I expected as it definitely takes its time with characters. The first twenty minutes contain maybe a bit too much exposition (specifically for people who haven't seen the other films) but it was just a minor annoyance in a film that is constantly keeping you on your toes.

Polished, well edited and sleek as hell "Logan" is everything any fan wanted for the final goodbye to our anger induced hero. It goes from breathtaking action scenes to resonating dialogue with such precision, that gives "Logan" a beautiful finale and a long awaited goodbye, to one of the longest running characters put on screen.
