Pass the salt please

Rating: 7/10 (14 March 2017)

It's 2029, the mutants are no more and old man Logan is finally starting to show his age, the beloved Prof. is senile and they all live on Logan's part-time job as an uber driver. uplifting right?
This movie is a blatant transition movie, the baton is passed from the X-men we all know and love to the next generation as their kids/clones show up with powers that mimic one of the older generation (electricity, healing, magnetic? powers...etc)
Hugh Jackman gave a stellar performance as wolverine and every minute he's on screen is pure joy.... but that's all the movie offers you, Patrick Stewart was given a poor role, he played it well but to see an icon reduced to "a senile old man" is just sad.
The child lead Laura (played by Dafne Keen) was OK and her action scenes are AMAZING but she was written oddly, she spends the first two hours of the movie on mute, then talks in Spanish exclusively, then she can magically speak English for the finale, it was distracting.
Overall this movie is boring which is actually odd considering how great the action scenes were. it's a 6/10 but deserves one extra point because of Hugh Jackman's performance.
