Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
bespokesuiting This show must have been written for a Japanese audience or something very strange. "Wolverine" is not an X-Man. He is some pathetic imitation of the real character. There are no identifiable aspects to the X-Men franchise. The "plot" is so insane that only the most stodgy coprophagous clown would have given it the "ok" for film development. Some Japanese guy "Wolverine" allegedly met once during WWII when he was a prisoner of war (--hint, Wolverine would not have been a prisoner of war; he would have destroyed all moral foes without blinking--) sends a little annoying girl to "get" him from a drunken pity-party so that he (--the now old and dying Japanese guy--) can say "farewell." And "Wolverine" agrees????? Are you joking. And the plot only gets worse from that point forward. Perhaps this trash was intended for Millennials kids that wouldn't know any better. However, the very worst "cartoon" from the 1990's or the 2000's "Evolution" school this pile of facial material. It does not deserve the name "Wolverine." It does not deserve to be affiliated with X-Men. The only thing worse is probably "Logan," the biggest loser of them all. See "Dark Night" for how a comic book can be turned into a successful film. Or see the "Superman II" (1980). That is how it is done. Dump this trash in the bin of LOSERS forever.
thomasporter-43693 While this movie had a good idea and was lined up well as a stage for the third insert of the trilogy, this movie was a tough long 2 hours of filler and slow plot development with irrelevant characters and little to no consistent action. There are many bad things about this movie, but I believe the worst was all of the Japanese spoken did not have subtitles on the version I watched. Maybe I would have enjoyed the movie if there were subtitles, however, I did not have them. All in all, I would try and watch this movie again, with a different version of the movie . It is important to see for the whole trilogy, and does have some meaning developments for Logan.
Pablo MisterRager Morillo I love knowing that Hugh Jackman isn't wolverine anymore so to watch him in action still is something of nostalgia to me so I moved the film although I don't really like 20th fox movies but don't hate them, I still enjoy wolverine. He should have had 10 more films. Especially rated R. This film was showing blood but not guts but it didn't hesitate to show. Blood.
morrison-dylan-fan With her son having the same first name,I decided that I would get Logan on disc the day it came out for a friend. Talking to another pal a few days earlier,I got told that the previous Wolverine title was actually very good,which led to me joining Wolverine in Japan.The plot:Living a secluded life after the death of Jean Grey,Logan/Wolverine is pulled out of the wilderness by fellow mutant Yukio. Told by Ichirō (a major CEO) about how Logan saved in during the Nagasaki,Yukio gets Logan to come to Japan,in order for the dying Ichirō to give his regards. Expecting to be thanked,Logan is instead asked by Ichirō to give him his mutant powers,so that Ichirō can live forever. Turning it down,Wolverine discovers Ichirō's claws in the Yakuza.View on the film:Taking over after Gavin Hood's X-Men Origins: Wolverine, director James Mangold & cinematographer Ross Emery give Wolverine a new mutated shot of energy. Filming on the streets of Japan "gorilla" style, Mangold and Rmery give the fight scenes a frantic grit,as slick CGI is smoothly blended with criss-crossing gun battles and lively Kung-Fu. Clawing away at the Japanese underworld, Mangold paints the burning red comic book panels with fresh watercolour blues and neon yellows making Logan's bloody claw attacks pop.Inspired by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller's "Ronin" run of Logan comics,the screenplay by Mark Bomback and Scott Frank (with uncredited Christopher McQuarrie) wonderfully slice wandering anthology elements for a lean samurai tale that goes into what makes superhero Logan a tormented loner. Whilst ending with the traditional "big boss" comic-book final battle,the writers do take a different path to the fight with a corporate Thriller focus,which thrillingly unleashes Wolverine into the Yakuza underworld and Ichirō's complicated family life. Working with Mangold for the second of three times, Hugh Jackman gives an excellent performance as Wolverine,who is given a gravitas of a lone warrior by Jackman,which burns as the claws of the Wolverine appear.
