Finally a superhero movie for those who have grown tired of all the clichés

Rating: 7/10 (21 March 2017)

In the near future, a weary Logan (Hugh Jackman) cares for an ailing Professor X (Patrick Stewart) in a hide-out on the Mexican border. But his attempts to hide from the world and legacy are up-ended when a young mutant (Dafne Keen) arrives, being pursued by dark forces.
Hell yeah! Finally a mainstream superhero movie for those who don't really care about superheroes, or have grown tired of all the clichés of the genre.
It's got R-rated action, it's got characters with some depth and also memorable acting, it's got heart.
It still is not deep enough to be compared to the quality superhero TV series, of which there are many. And it loses some of its dramatic heft near the end due to lack of variety (not enough different stuff happening, the same type of events are always recurring). But all in all, the movie's good, and worth the hype it's gained.
This is the last time we got to see Hugh Jackman as Wolverine... unless he changes his mind, of course.
Also stars Boyd Holbrook, Richard E. Grant, Stephen Merchant, Eriq La Salle and Elizabeth Rodriguez.
