X men franchise bows out with a whimper

Rating: 5/10 (16 April 2017)

As an avid enjoyer of most superhero movies, with the X men franchise near the top of my films to enjoy list I looked forward to the climax of the set. Unfortunately there is little to enjoy here as Xavier is senile, Logan is a babysitter for Charles and Logan's "daughter" says almost nothing.
It's hard to like a character that says nothing. There's little to endear them to the viewer and that is the case here. Suffering Alzheimer's is a terrible thing to cope with and not much fun to watch either. It might be a great challenge for an actor but it's not an area of entertainment for me. To then make Logan a drunk on top of two other miserable characters is asking too much for this viewer. With the characters so full of misery there's just no hero any more let alone a super one.
Of course Logan becomes the hero at the end but it's too little to late to make this a superhero movie. It's really just a means of removing the characters so Marvel can move on to some other franchise. All in it's easily the worst of the franchise and a poor way to finish an excellent series of films.
