Dafne Keen, a name everyone should remember.

Rating: 8/10 (1 March 2017)

Well, just got back from the cinema, and i have a grin on my face.
This is truly a worthy end for the wolverine franchise, the character that Hugh Jackman has played so well for 17 years now. He has said this was his last film in the x-men universe, this movie is his goodbye. Jackman IS and forever will be, wolverine, and whoever is going to fill his shoes, is in for quite a challenge. And in this film Jackman plays wolverine better than ever, near perfectly balancing between the rage and bloodlust that drives him, and that of trying to be a decent person.
Patrick Stewart has also announced this was his final x-men film, and taking into consideration that i think this might be the best x-men film to date, and one of the best superhero films ever made, Logan is a must see for all superhero fans.
Pretty much every actor does a fine job in this film, And to my surprise, a totally unknown actress blew my mind. The young Dafne Keen. Oh my god, a 11-12 year old girl that is a perfect cast for her role as Laura Kinney/x-23. I don't want to go too much into her role in this film, but she is amazing, truly amazing. Most fans of x-men probably know who Laura Kinney is, where she comes from, and what she is. It is really disturbing and fascinating at the same time, to watch a little girl play a savage beast, and she nails it like a experienced professional.
As most know this movie is set in 2029, where wolverine takes care of an old Xavier. There seem to be few mutants left on earth and they just try and stay away from everyone, but of course, this is not meant to last. Evil corporations and military hunts mutants down and kill and capture them. This forces an aging wolverine to give all he's got to try and protect what is left. And he is in for the battle of his life.
Rated R, this movie is not exactly "gentle". In this film you will see heads being chopped off, limbs being parted, shotgun blasts to the head, and so on. It's a really brutal film, with lots of graphic imagery. And i love it, a savage like wolverine isn't exactly the guy you mess with. But wolverine isn't necessarily the biggest badass in this film. He has some serious competition this time.
The action sequences are well made, the cinematography is good, the acting is good, the direction is good, the script is good, and the story is maybe the weakest part, but still good. But the whole movie is executed with care, and the decision to focus the entire story only on a few characters, was a very smart move.
This is a movie that is lifted one step up by Jackman and Keen, Two actors several decades apart in age. They are the perfect team, and they make this one hell of a finale. I urge every fan of comics and superheros to go see this film.
8/10 - Good
