Excellent even if you don't like superhero flicks

Rating: 10/10 (3 March 2017)

I don't write many reviews and, as a matter of fact, I don't even read many since I like to just decide for myself. Rarely, though, does a film come along that I feel compelled to write about. In this case, after having seen "LOGAN," I just could not resist.
The film is a gritty noir-western take on the Wolverine character which many have wished for for quite some time. It is done with poise and grace and, while quite violent, does not ever feel gratuitously done. The film is visually stunning. Shot well and in a bleak manner, not unlike a 1970's film. It is cut well despite being lengthy. It never feels "long," however. Additionally, as it is Hugh Jackman's last hoorah as Wolvie, it is especially satisfying to see such a success. It is impossible to imagine the character not being Hugh Jackman. He quite simply IS Logan.
Anything else I'd say would be a spoiler, so, I will stop here. Before I do, however, I want to reiterate that regardless of one's like or dislike for superhero films, this movie impresses as a "film" in all aspects of the medium.
