Logan Review

                             Its the final chapter in X Men series , its about saying bid adieu to seventeen years of Wolverine journey of splendid breathtaking performances we are all accustomed to . This movie is unlike any other X-Men movie and is raw, emotionally draining while giving best possible unique compassionate sendoff to its central character ‘Logan’ and yes, your eyes do betray your resolve and get moist when Hugh Jackman eventually fights and succumbs after his chosen last battle.
                             Unlike any other X Men movie, this movie starts with Logan being robbed and beaten by bunch of hooligans while he struggles to shrug them off . He is old, has lost his healing power and draws his claws slowly a sorry figure as compared to old days . The year is 2029, he is hiding near Mexican border with Charles Xavier who is old and has lost his power to control his mind and thus branded WMD by government . Soon you realize the idea was the two wanted to remain aloof from civilians and die in oblivion but the turmoil in their life occurred as a female approached Logan to drive a young mutant girl to safety. The movie took a violent turn (brutally violent with claws stabbing face and heads chopped off, arms ,legs amputated in rough raw ways with blood oozing) as the young mutant is vulnerable to band of mercenaries who are out to capture or kill mutants like her. The responsibility to take the girl to safety rests on Logan who soon realized the relationship he had with her, thus drawn into one final battle, this time to save his daughter.

                                    The final act by Hugh Jackman surely is worthy of watching , undoubtedly this Wolverine will be greatly missed . He did full justice to his role and excelled in acting skills which is noteworthy. One can easily enjoy watching it for raw action and superb storytelling, a must watch for all wolverine fans after all its the end of one of the iconic super hero.
