Most Depressing Comic Book Movie Ever

Rating: 1/10 (23 August 2018)

I finally watched the latest Wolverine movie, Logan. It was the darkest, most depressing comic book movie I have ever seen. The vision of the human race portrayed is so dark as to be hard for me to contemplate. I am surprised at the high ratings so many people gave it. Logan is a foul mouthed, depressed drunken grump who doesn't want to help anyone anymore in a world that has killed almost all of the mutant heroes of earlier movies. Patrick Stewart (Professor Xavier) is also drugged into a stupor to prevent him from having seizures (due to some unexplained brain ailment), which, due to his powers, threaten everyone around him. Virtually everyone Logan befriends in the movie except one young girl is assassinated by some evil corporation or branch of the government (it is not clear to me which) In the very end, some young mutants do escape from Horrible America to Canada. Everyone else dies. I don't think I'll be watching that little patch of pitch black again. Whatever happened to Heroes and Optimism in Hollywood? I notice Stan Lee did not appear in this movie. PS I like the first X-File movies and also the movie Wolverine.
