Excellent, intense drama with brilliant acting

Rating: 9/10 (3 March 2017)

Logan is an excellent movie by itself, first and foremost. The atmosphere and the acting are so brilliant that superpowers are like a back story, almost like a layer just added on top of a great plot.
This is a sad, heavy and intense, gripping drama, centered on two old mutants, which don't even seem that. It is about human emotions and desires of two old men against a backdrop of a very believable dystopian future.
I saw it with a friend who didn't know anything about X-Men and she was amazed at how good the acting, the heavy atmosphere and the overall drama was. She didn't need to know anything about the franchise to enjoy the movie - that's how good it is.
I highly recommend it. On a side note, this is NOT for kids. It isn't your typical comic book adventure, far from that.
