Incredible and amazing film! Wolverine is a true human... whether mutant or not.

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.

First of all I really enjoyed the audio quality that's reason for four stars, the picture quality not much what I expecting. I watch this 4K UHD blu-ray thru an OPPO 203, on a LG OLED C7 65" flat panel tv,I was a bit disappointed with PQ the audio more than made up for the downer. I already miss Logan, he's just a good man with weapons of brutal destruction and beheading grown men. I found the movie very entertaining overall.

Logan is easily one of the best Wolverine movies and Hugh Jackman as the character is finally unleashed in this gritty story. They do JUSTICE to the old man Logan storyline from the comics. It's also one of the best films involving a Xmen character.

Wolverine, one of the greatest heroes of all time, has been through a lot. After making his debut in The Incredible Hulk #181, he went to the pages of the X-Men, and then to the big screen when Hugh Jackman picked up the claws to add the classic Logan to the X-Men's movie roster. So it came as no surprise that he would get some movies of his own. The only problem is, they didn't work all the time. X-Men Origins: Wolverine ultimately butchered the iconic origins of the character (and Deadpool) with a sloppy story and poor CGI. The Wolverine was certainly an improvement, but it still had its issues in that it was being held back by a PG-13 rating. So, when the news that Hugh Jackman decided to step down from the role, the heads at 20th Century Fox wanted him to go out on top, and boy did they make that happen. Logan is by far one of the greatest X-Men films, and one of the greatest superhero films of all time, coming close to the legends that are The Dark Knight and Spider-Man 2, but unlike those two films, it pushes all the boundaries it can while still delivering a superhero/noir film. The story may seem pretty basic, but holds a hardcore look unlike any the world has ever seen. In the future, did Logan's actions save the X-Men from the horror of a Sentinel ruled world? Briefly, for now the world is a barren waste, and the X-Men are gone, killed by the ailing Charles Xavier's own troublesome telepathic powers. Logan now watches him on a hideout along the Mexican border, trying to hide from the world. But when a small girl shows up, Logan's life is changed as he tries to take her to a hiding place, ultimately discovering himself along the way. Sounds basic enough right? Well, it would be, if that story didn't include some of the most gritty, gory action scenes ever seen in cinema history. This time, Wolverine doesn't hold back whatsoever. He swears, he lets the claws fly out, and he doesn't show any mercy whatsoever. But this isn't the humorous type of violence like Deadpool, rather, it's the kind you'd see in classic noir films, as evidenced by the tone. None of his enemies stand a chance; even an 11 year old girl with his powers proves to be just as brutal as he is. Speaking of which, this is the best performances from Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart I've ever seen. The former is finally allowed to be the broken, confused, yet strong and brutal character he was meant to play since the beginning, while the later plays off of the vulnerable, yet optimistic leader of the X-Men, now holding the loss of the X-Men forever within the confines of his failing mind. But the true star of the show is Daphne Keen as X-23, Wolverine's young clone, who plays off the character like a professional Oscar Winning actress; hard, brutal, yet vulnerable. Overall, if you want to see Hugh Jackman sheath out the claws one last time, then this is the movie to see, in both color and black and white.

Feels bad that Dark Phoenix was the last X-Men movie Fox made when they should have bookended it all with this masterpiece of a superhero movie. Excellent performances by everyone involved, excellent action direction, excellent everything.

This movie is the best x men film. Super hero movie with characters that aren’t invulnerable. So good.

It seems that even though Wolverine is one of the most loved characters in the X-Men, his stories are always a little..off in film. This story is ok, it feels like something that could be claimed as an alternate universe, or a "what if" kind of story..but I wouldn't hold it as canon. Audio is great in the 4k production, the video quality is mostly good, couple of rough spots, but it could be my player or tv.

The X-Men movies, like the comics on which they are based, have often dealt with themes of oppression and discrimination, frequently from the point of view of young mutants (who are dealing with coming of age while facing these larger issues). Although this film includes young cast members, it was interesting to see most of the storyline through Logan's older and worn down perspective. His struggles aren't about young love or petty rivalries; his struggles are about whether he should just end his struggles. Logan--a fighter for decades--is looking for a way to end the fight. You can clearly see the tiredness and brokenness of the character in Hugh Jackman's tragic and moving performance. Despite the grim circumstances faced by this character, Jackman's portrayal reminds the viewer why you still root for him. Buried beneath his hardships, he is still the Wolverine. He still goes back into the fight even when there's no hope for him, even when there's a newer, stronger model ready to kill him. He still faces the fight. As he said in the first X-Men film, it may hurt "every time," but he still takes on that hurt. This film made me cry. It was dark and brutal, but it was also very similar to the western Shane, to which it often made reference. You root for the hero even when he doesn't want to be the hero anymore. The character may just be Logan, no longer wearing any costumes, but that doesn't change how he acts when someone needs his help. This movie is a must-see for any fan of Wolverine, although I would caution that this is nowhere near as campy or light-hearted as other superhero films. As for the blu-ray itself, the digital copy includes an iTunes file. If you're looking to expand your Apple movie library, this blu-ray will work for you.

Excellent ending to both the 20th Century Fox and Wolverine movies. Great acting and action combined with an amazing plot. Great to see the young actress playing Laura McKinney aka X-23! Glad to have in my collection.

Christmas gift for son who had this on his Christmas wish list

This was the best of the Wolverine movies by far. I think they went out on a high note with this one. I'm glad they reissued the steelbook because the first one they gave me was damaged, and they didn't have any more to give me.

This is arguably a top 3 superhero movie ever. Flawlessy blends western, noir, and superhero film genres to create a captivating story of everyone's favorite Wolverine. Must own, and a great flick for anyone.

Remember those other 2 really bad wolverine movies? Yeah, me neither. Jackman goes berserker in this, slicing and dicing all the baddies. It also includes the black and white noir version. Mutant madness!

The best marvel movie by far. Besides having great action, it has a great story development for the present and the future of what Wolverine movies have to hold. If a fan of Wolverine, then you must watch this movie.

What a great superhero film. Logan’s journey through this film is so fantastic. His relationship with Charles and with the world is amazing. Truly a classic. The back and white version is awesome too.

One of my favorite x-Men movies of all times. Was planning on just getting the Blu ray version of the movie but when I saw how much nicer the Steelbook version looked, I got the Steelbook instead and happy I did.

You get an old Wolverine and Professor X with dementia and some great action parts.It looks like they may have been angling for new spinoff direction but Disney has it all now so we will see what happens

Logan is basically The Last of Us made into a movie. If that intrigues you, watch it. Even if it doesn't, watch it. Because Logan is heavy on the drama and emotion, which is very unexpected from an X-Men movie.

This movie is beyond incredible. Although it’s not technically a part of the MCU, Hugh Jackman gives his amazing last performance as Wolverine. And this came with the Noir version which is a nice bonus!
