This is not a Marvel film, this is not a superhero filmthis is a SOAP OPERA!

Rating: 3/10 (8 March 2017)

When you think of Marvel and X-men, what comes to your mind is entertainment and action. However, in this film its main focus is more about being sentimental. While the action, the acting and the connection of the characters is the best from this film, it is the way that the characters are written which makes it disappointing.
The plot is that Logan/Wolverine (played by Hugh Jackman) goes on a journey reluctantly to help a mutant girl named Laura (who is Wolverine's daughter), to find her other mutant friends who are chased by a group composed of cyborg enforces called, "The Reavers" along with their cyborg leader named, Donald Pierce (played by Robert Holbrook).
Now the plot sounds simple and entertaining but it is the mishandling of the X-men hero characters that ruins the plot along with its message about the elderly people and its questionable conclusion. First of all, Logan/Wolverine is shown to be a drunken X-men character who works as a chauffeur while suffering a disease that is making him weak because of the adamantium that was fused to his bones. We are never told how he ended up in this situation but you just have to accept it. Also, Professor Xavier (played by Patrick Stewart) still has his power of telepathy but because he is old, he suffers from seizures and cannot recognize Wolverine unless he takes his medicine although Xavier does state that he is aware of his telepathic power.
Now unlike the comic, "The Reavers" have no interest in destroying the X-men mutant but rather a group of mutant children who have superpowers but have escaped (Note: In this film, the mutant children want to cross the border from Mexico to the U.S. for a new opportunity of life). Inadvertently, Wolverine is caught in the middle of the chase.
The first conflict that I had is that during the film, Wolverine, Professor Xavier and Laura are given a shelter by a kind family called, the Munsons. Despite the family's good deed and kindness, the Munsons are slaughtered by X-24 (a clone of Wolverine who works for the antagonists) who is sent to capture Laura. At this point it shows you that being good and kind means death according to the message of this film (Logan). To add insult to injury, Professor Xavier, the world's most powerful telepath is easily killed by X-24 because he is old and old people suck (based on the message that this film, Logan, is giving).
After Wolverine escapes with Laura and they find the mutant children, "The Reavers" along with X-24 arrive but they are defeated by the mutant children and Wolverine. During the fight against X-24, Wolverine is brutally impaled onto a tree stump. Luckily Wolverine survives his injury, and knowing that the mutant children have no guidance of what is good and justice while also being aware that the mutant children were only taught to destroy humanity, he decides to take them under his guide were he establishes a private school like Xavier for the mutant childrenyeah that doesn't happen.
Instead after being impaled onto a tree stump, Wolverine dies from his wounds because well, he is old and old people suck (based on the message of this film). The children bury him and continue their journey as the credits roll but there is one problem THIS MUTANT CHILDREN ARE GOING TO END UP JUST LIKE THE REAVERS! With no guidance of what is right and justice, and with only the teachings that they were taught which is to destroy humanity, this mutant kids will actually become a new villainous group on the Marvel world of this film. Special criticism is also given to the fact that there is not the traditional Marvel post-credits scene and Stan Lee does not make a cameo appearance.
In conclusion, this 2017 film, "Logan," gives the feeling that its director James Mangold (who also directed the 2013 film, Wolverine), its writers and its producers, hate life, they hate the Marvel heroes (Wolverine and Professor Xavier) and they have no respect for the elderly people as they see them as useless without taking note that the elderly people have a greater knowledge and that the youth can learn from them. The whole film just mocks Wolverine and Professor Xavier for being too old and it does not take note of their achievements as a hero or the great power and knowledge that they poses. Instead The message of this film is that no matter what accomplishments you've done in the past and no matter if you have done the right thing or if you are a hero, it is pointless because that was in the past. As a result, it means that since you are old, you suck and are no longer needed according to this film's message.
If you are a fan of X-men, Marvel and Wolverine, then this movie is highly not recommendable for you. But if you like Soap opera and you are a fan of Hugh Jackman, then this film is for you.
