Wolverine Has Left The Building

Rating: 10/10 (3 March 2017)

Greetings from Lithuania.
"Logan" (2017) is, to put it simply - the best "X-Men" movie I've ever seen (and i saw them all). This is not as much as "X-Men" movie, and it doesn't even feel as a third part in its own "Wolverine" series - "Logan" is a standalone movie, which you can safely see even if your first and the last seen "X-Men" series movie was the first X-Men (2000). From start till finish, it is a blast.
Now i'm not a huge fan of "X-Men" series, but i saw and enjoyed all of them. Strangely, when watching "Logan", i barely and even very hardly remembered that i have seen first two movies - they were so forgettable. But after credits of this movie started to roll i was sure - i won't forget this movie for sure.
This is a superhero movie for those who think that all Marvel studio movies are to formulaic and plays it to safe. This is a superhero movie for those who think that DC movies aren't to focused and are all over the map. This is a superhero movie for those who lost their track of a countless of "X-Men" sequels / prequels / spin offs / reboots who works as a prequel and sequel ... wait what? "Logan" is arguably the best superhero movie i saw since the "The Dark Knight" trilogy. It is not as epic as "The Dark Knight" trilogy, not to mention all other superhero movies in a market. This is a bloody, gritty, realistic, down to earth approach to this "genre" and so involving that at running time 2 h 15 min i was involved from the first minute till the closing scene (and it is a great, great scene). Acting by all involved were great, with Hugh Jackman giving one of the best performances of his carrier (seriously). "Logan" shows very clearly and without turning camera away of what happens when Wolverine claws hits the human flesh - it doesn't look so "superhero cool" anymore - and i loved it. There is no doubt of why this is an R rated movie. The story itself kinda reminded me of "The Last of Us" - it is that simple yet powerful tale.
Overall, "Logan" is a blast. This is a superhero movie like i haven't seen before, even in "The Dark Knight" movies but i'm not saying its better - no, those were better but i'm still giving this movie a 10/10 - please, 20th Century Fox - bring this quality movies more often, do not go in a formulaic and safe road, bring us something different, fresh and bold. "Logan" is the best movies of the early 2017 so far.
