Logan

I had a chance recently to finally see Logan, which is reportedly the last time Hugh Jackman will be playing the X-Men character that made him famous. While I didn't see this in the theaters (I caught it as a video rental), I still enjoyed Logan a great deal.

With an aging Logan taking care of a feeble Professor X (Patrick Steward is also great in this), Logan is not your typical superhero movie, and it's all the better for it. Young Dafne Keen is superb as a mini-Logan, armed with her own claws and even the same ferocious disposition as Logan. A great, somber movie that's still filled with much hope.

Wow, with Wonder Woman, Guardians 2, and now this, 2017 is shaping up to be a fantastic year for superhero films. Now bring on Justice League and Thor Ragnarok!
