LOGAN
All good things must come to an end. After seventeen years Hugh Jackman finally retired his signature character, Wolverine. But what a way to go out. Writer/director James Mangold and Jackman deliver the best X-Men movie to date by placing the roguish hero in a western, or at least a superhero movie echoing motifs consistently found in that genre. Gritty and raw, unlike the previous X-Men related movies, Logan channels what it takes to be a caretaker in extreme times. Man is fallible. So are mutants. The end is full of sorrow, but not pity. Still, you’d likely want to say, “Come back, Logan. Come back.”
