THE Wolverine movie to own

This is the Wolverine film we've wanted for years. Violent, gritty, earning it's rated-R rating, this is definitely not for kids. It is a fantastic way for Jackman to finish being Logan though. If you are into comic book films or just good movies, this is one for your collection. It does come with the black and white Noir cut as well.

Directed by James Mangold (The Wolverine, Walk the Line) from a screenplay by Mangold, Scott Frank (The Wolverine, Get Shorty) and (Heroes, American Gods), Logan is a finely crafted movie with a moving script and excellent performances that bring the Hugh Jackman Wolverine story-arc to a fitting conclusion.
The story is set in a not-too-distant future of 2029, but it's a world that's changed dramatically for mutants in general and for James "Logan" Howlett (Hugh Jackman in truly top form), who no longer goes by Wolverine, and Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart in arguably his best performance in the role), who's no longer a professor anywhere. The intervening years have not been kind to either man. Logan's healing factor is failing, his body having apparently been slowly poisoned over time by the adamantium fused into his skeleton as part of the Weapon X program. Xavier, who's now in his 90's, is physically frail but also suffers from advancing neurological degeneration and seizures which must be suppressed medically to avoid devastating telepathic eruptions that can lay out anyone who happens to be in the vicinity. With assistance from fellow mutant Caliban (Stephen Merchant), Logan looks after Charles, holed up in an abandoned factory near the Texas/Mexico border where he works as a limo driver for rich tourists.
Logan, Xavier and Caliban are seemingly among the last mutants around. For some reason, no new mutants have been born in the last twenty-five years. Or so it would seem until they encounter an 11-year-old girl named Laura (Dafne Keen who definitely holds her own in scenes with Jackman and Stewart), of whom Xavier tells Logan "She's like you... very much like you."
The good thing about the screenplay is that you don't need more than a basic familiarity with the main characters - Jackman's Wolverine and Patrick Stewart's Professor X - to follow what's going on.
One of the best things about Logan as a film, which helps make it arguably the best film of the X-Men/Wolverine series, is due to the excellent screenplay that allows both Jackman and Stewart to really flex their considerable acting talents and bring new depth and perspectives to their roles as Logan and Xavier, characters for whom the world has vastly changed and not in good ways. As is already hinted at in the trailers, Logan's healing factor is failing him as is Xavier's health and mind. The end of the road is all too visible for both men and both have to face their personal doubts and fears in ways they never had to before. As a result, Jackman and Stewart give the best performances of their characters to date, not to mention some of the best performances of their careers. It is a credit to young Dafne Keen that she can hold her own in her scenes with these two veterans as well as the scenes where she's on her own.
The musical score by Marco Beltrami (The Wolverine, The Hurt Locker) is suitably atmospheric, suggesting a worn-down weariness in some scenes but jumping into an edgy adrenaline-rush feeling in others, but always in the background, never over-powering or distracting from what's happening on the screen.
Highly, highly recommended for anyone who's ever been a fan of superhero movies in general, of the X-men series in particular, or of just great story-telling and moving performances by a great cast.

I'm not a huge fan of the X-Men movies outside of this and Days of Future Past because they just don't capture the essence of the comics in my opinion. Why 5 stars? This one most had a comic book feel, of course that is a matter of opinion but I really liked Ligan and thought it was Hugh Jackmans best performance as Wolverine.

All I have to say is that this bundle is the absolute version of this movie. Not only do you get the dvd and Blu-ray, but you also get the Noir (black and white) versión of the film and it looks beautiful!
The extras are plentiful with all the trailers, the behind the scenes, and more. For $10 it is a steal!

Another movie that wasn't seen in theaters, but as soon as it became available I had to have it. When these Marvel or comic movies are rated R, they can do so much more with them which I do believe makes the movie that much greater. If you haven't seen it or are debating on buying it, do it without any regrets!

I thought The Dark Knight did something for superhero films which couldn't be topped, and as much as Marvel is credited for changing films in a similar vein, I'm just not a fan of many that have been released as the realism is often absent. This is what I prefer. As my summary states, one word...LOGAN.

I have to be honest, I don't like any of the x-men movie but when I heard how good this was I skeptical but gave it a try. Not only the best x-men movie (better than deadpool) but one of the best Marvel mvoies to date! And the steelbook in 4K for under $20, one of the best purchases!

This movie, gah the feels. It's amazing, dark, lovely, heart warming and breaking. A take at want's in the future for The XMen, as one of the last men standing watches his world becoming so different, changed, and alone. Logan goes on the journey of Old Man Logan, and its just amazing.

Wolverine is my favorite Marvel character. This movie is inspired by the the comic Old Man Logan. It isn’t what happens in the comic but showing the older years of Logan and his eventual end brought tears to my eyes. High Jackman should have been up for an award with his performance!

"Logan" is the final film of the titular character Wolverine, played by Hugh Jackman since 2001. The character who could take a bomb blast, a bullet to the head and get his metallic bones pulled apart and still walk away lives in a future where all the heroes we've come to know since 2001's "X-Men" are all gone, with Wolverine himself dying of a failing healing factor due to a mutant virus, mixed with his body over compensating from perpetually healing him due to his metal exoskeleton.
The steelbook is a great way to send off the character in his final film as it includes the bluray, DVD, digital copy and a black and white "Noir" edition of the video. The movie, unlike previous X-Men/Wolverine films, is full of cursing and an abundance of violence that would make Deadpool blush a color of red deeper than his costume. Needless to say, this is not a film kids should watch.
The noir edition, for me, is somewhat of a miss. The "noir edition" is what it is, a black and white version. And while that sounds cool, it lacks any kind of special effect or grain to make it look like it's intended idea. Having watched the original version several times (In theater and on bluray), the noir version offers nothing that the colored version does not. If they wanted to make it pop, they could have gone the "Sin City" route and keep the blood (and trust me, there's plenty of it) red to make it stand out from the black and white copy. My only other gripe is the somewhat comical drawing on the cover of Dafne Keen (X-23) on the cover.
But for the price, the features, and the great sendoff (You can not watch this film's climax and not say to yourself "What a song to end it all" during the credits).
A recommended buy. Even if the Steelbook is a bit rich for your taste, the standard bluray edition is a guaranteed win. The DVD, for me, doesn't do it enough justice.

Loved the movie. Watched it in theaters. Kind of wish they'd done the other Wolverines or at least more with an R rating. 4K version was my first purchase of this movie (didn't own on blu ray) so nothing to compare it to- but the picture quality and audio are fantastic. Worth it.

I waited a while to see this movie, and it was different than I had expected. I had closely followed all the X-Men movies as they released in the past and the most recent ones hadn’t been a priority on my list, I wasn’t super into this movie as I was with the older films.

The End of an Era

It's disappointing. Tragic, even. All those struggles and all that time invested in trying to make the world a better place and this is what they have to show for it. This is what it's all come to. There is a sweeping sorrow to Hugh Jackman's swan song as The Wolverine, but much like its brutal, bloody, and exceptionally R-rated violence, this tone feels justified and necessary. Necessary not only in the aesthetic sense of what is befitting to Logan's world, but necessary in that tragedy always was the way of the world for Logan AKA James Howlett, so why might his conclusion be spared such tribulations? Fortunately for us, but unfortunately for our titular mutant LOGAN is another tale in which our protagonist is pulled into a conflict in which he bears no responsibility in creating, but that his storied past has somehow served as an influence and thus he is then unwillingly pulled into the scenario. This time things are different though, as before and in the many movies we've seen Jackman portray Wolverine the character has always been reluctant, but ultimately unable to deny his true and selfless heroism. He couldn't help but to care, couldn't help but to stand up for the little guy and what he felt to be right, but in LOGAN Wolverine is a much more broken man than we've ever seen him before. His extended past is beginning to catch up with him and we can see that he's tired of playing this role, he's tired of being the hero, of feeling the responsibility to save the day and that he's essentially forcing himself to not care any longer, but rather focus on the task at hand-a task that sees putting himself and an old friend first. In the midst of all this is the centerpiece that is Jackman's final turn as the adamantium clawed mutant making this grief and misery and pain all the more palpable. Jackman so embodies the character at this point though, it's hard to imagine he has a hard time slipping into even the worn and weathered skin of his alter ego at this stage in the game. And while it is Jackman's (presumably) final turn in his most iconic role that is rightly at the center of what makes LOGAN so emotionally rich and narratively compelling there is plenty going on around him that builds the film up in these ways and make it a genuinely thrilling end of an era.

Certainly the most downbeat and probably the most violent of all X-Men films, "Logan" brings more depth to Wolverine and Xavier than prior incarnations. Dafne Keen is a real find. Although her role is largely devoid of dialog she displays more intent with facial expressions than many actors can muster in a whole movie. The body count is high, the action is engrossing, the vilians are non-redeeming and the 4K transfer is spectacular.
