Logan
You can tell a superhero is getting old when villains start using credit-card scams on them.
Luckily, the aged protagonist in this action movie knows to keep his PIN protected.
A weathered Wolverine/Logan (Hugh Jackman) struggles to survive in a mutant-less future where his healing factor is failing and his once powerful mentor (Patrick Stewart) suffers from Alzheimer's.
Matters worsen when a young mutant (Dafne Keen) escapes from a laboratory and asks for his help in reaching a mutant safe haven up north. Accepting, however, puts the irritable immortal's life in danger for the first – and possibly last - time.
Focusing more on the character than his infamous claws, this end chapter of the Jackman era may suffer from some lulls but is ultimately a fitting tribute to the troubled Canuck with strong performances, furious action and a moving script.
Incidentally, elderly superheroes always keep some candy in their spandex.
