missed the mark ... by a long shot

Rating: 3/10 (7 June 2017)

Apparently a lot of people liked it, hey, that's fine, I'm happy they liked it, but to me, they missed the mark by a huge margin on this one.
This movie was a bit of a conundrum, it would have been better (to have watched the movie) if you didn't know or have very limited knowledge of who Logan and the X-Men are - mainly because of expectation and idea of who the Wolverine/Logan is.
But at the same time, there are few references in the movie that require you to know a thing or two about Wolverine and the X-Men - or not it would have gone over your head.
Throughout the movie there was definitely a feeling that they (writer, screenplay, director, etc) didn't know what's going on - or what to do with the characters. The story line itself was sluggish - with some unnecessary parts, I find myself asking a lot of why questions (why did he do that, why wouldn't he do that, who is that?)
If you have limited knowledge of the X-Men and Logan, you actually need to read the story line for the movie, because; A) it didn't feel/looked like 2029 ... B) you would never know there were mutant issues C) Logan is actually trying to hide? really?
If you're a huge fan of Logan/the Wolverine and the X-Men, not sure if this movie is for you, unless you really liked this perspective,
there's a lot of holes in the movie, a lot of things you just have to take at face value without really understanding why ... though understanding why would be a huge factor in understanding the character and the plot as a whole.
What I really would love to see is to get an actual writer that really knows and understands who/what Logan/the Wolverine is because this one was a huge downer, 3/10 because I'm feeling generous.
