The Dark Wolverine

Rating: 10/10 (4 March 2017)

From the opening scene, the dark tone of this movie is felt throughout the film. Hugh Jackman delivers a combatant and depressed Logan that shows how far the mutants have fallen in this broken future world set in the year 2024. Patrick Stewart crippling performance as a very old and sick Professor X will break the hearts of many long time X-men fans. Dafne Keen plays Laura (X-23) and does an outstanding job especially with her facial expressions as a young feral X-23. The other complementary characters did okay with what their characters were given ( Pierce and Caliban). The fight scenes in this movie are raw,brutal and have true grit. Some of the most intense scenes that had me and many audiences members in awe of how brutal this movie was. It slows down in the middle for character development but keeps you into it with the performances from Jackman and Stewart. This is truly The Wolverine movie we always wanted and we finally got. Let this movie be a blueprint for all future superhero movies to drive away from mindless action and turn towards more gritty drama that brings these larger than life superheroes down to reality
We always wanted an R rated wolverine film but no one thought it would ever be this bloody good.
9.0/10
