The Wolverine I've been waiting for. 8.3/10

Rating: 8/10 (6 September 2018)

Now Logan wasn't a cinema I was expecting to like at all.
I've loved the Wolverine character and Hugh Jackman's portrayal for a long time, but I absolutely HATED the X-Men movies. Ever since The Wolverine came out in 2013, I regained hope in the Wolverine that they could bring back a character and return him to his full glory. That was just hope though, I never thought that they actually would infact BRING him back to his glory. But a bittersweet glory.
When I heard about Logan coming out, I was ready to keep an open mind. And then I saw the trailer and I saw this, a Wolverine berserker rage. That's when I knew I just had to see the movie for the berserker rage itself. And it didn't disappoint.
Logan follows an incredibly emotional journey with Logan as he deals with his body which has stopped healing properly due to something internally poisoning his body, the very Adamantium in his body. Logan is then bestowed with the care of a mutant girl who is said to be genetically related to him, in other words, his very own daughter. The movies follows the emotional troubles that Logan must face not being able to protect his loved ones anymore as he approaches death day by day.
I loved this plot, it was absolutely thrilling and emotional to watch Logan. The visual effects are really good and the classic Wolverine was revealed for perhaps the second time in theaters. The movie's psychology is incredibly well thought through and it's portrayal of responsibility is incredibly well done. Not to mention, Hugh Jackman's acting is superb and emotional and the portrayal of old Logan is spectacular.
This movie however like almost every other movie does lack in certain areas. In Logan particularly, I felt like a bit too much relied on the character's action and at times it felt like a silent film although I do admit that the silent attribute of the film really suited the tone, but there was a lack of dialogue. I also felt that the introduction to Laura and the other mutants is a bit poor. A big plothole I felt was that why did Logan even bother taking in Laura? Judging by who he is as a character, he wouldn't have probably have given a damn. What caused this change of mind? What caused this change of heart to feel some sort of responsibility? That I felt was a major plot hole to the movie.
However this movie is a truly spectacular farewell to Logan and I feel like it's worthy of a tribute to such a spectacular actor.
I can't deny that this is probably one of the best movies released in the past few years and is a must watch for any Wolverine fan.
One thing that really made this movie though was that it was MEMORABLE.
