Logan

First of all I admit I am no authority on Comic Book Lore or the history of the characters. I have been reading from a very early age I have read most all the classic's & all of Shakespeare's works...but my true love is the Sword & Sorcery genre. I enjoy escapist fantasy, adventure & science fiction which many of my literary friends deem unworthy to read let alone comic books! I often have to explain to them that genres like Science Fiction, Sword & Sorcery & even comic Books allow authors to address current affairs & powerful political figures that could get them killed if not " hidden" under the genre's of the unreal!!! This is much the same as William Shakespeare did retelling all the old tales the people of his day already knew in a new way. Shakespeare was telling the people of his time about the faults & debauchery of court royalty that if not hidden in these older stories would have gotten him beheaded!!! Watch some of these " Comic Book movies" & you will see what I am talking about. I have seen a few low ratings on this movie but that is because people have become conditioned to believe huge explosions & over the top special effects are what makes a good movie. Sadly to many people have forgotten to be stimulated cerebrally & entertainment that requires them to think is to boring to enjoy!!! " Logan" is a movie that has both a lot of action & a lot of emotional action going on throughout the whole film. When the physical action such as fight scene's stops the emotional action continues...basically the action is non stop there are just different types of action. This movie may just be to cerebral for many fans of the Comic book turned into movie genre, while other fans will feel it does great justice to these characters they have grown to love. While the movie " Logan" doesn't address controversial current affairs like some of "The Avenger" movies do it definitely humanizes these " Super Heroes" making them much more believable. The whole reason for giving this movie its R rating was not just to show more graphic violence but it was hoped that it would bring in adult's with a maturity level that would enjoy the gambit of human emotions the characters are going through in the film. Just like the arguments I have with my friends that are literary snob's who refuse to give Science Fiction or Comic Books a chance... I ask others to watch this movie again with " New Eye's" & give it a fair chance. There is a awful lot going on in this film that go's deeper than the surface, making it one of the greatest " Super Hero movies" ever made!

The X-Men movie franchise is continuing to add to its long-running series; though one of the films' most beloved characters ends his run with the movie Logan. Logan finds the titular character being much older than he was in the previous films-and he's pretty much at wits end with everything happening around him. That is until, a new opportunity presents itself. So what did I enjoy most about Logan as a movie? I loved everything about Logan. Hugh Jackman is once again brilliant as Wolverine and it helps that the R-Rating this film earned (which Hugh Jackman himself took a paycut to ensure) allows for us to see just how brutal his character can be. I love how the movie explores Logan rage; and shows us how undeniably violent he can be. Everything that is happening around him is put at a standstill when Logan first meets the wide-eyed Laura. Dafne Keen is a scene stealer as X-23 and she fits the character exceptionally well. Unsurprisingly, some of Logan's best moments are whenever X-23 and Logan are opposite each other in a certain scene. And as great as she ends up being as X-23, it'd be unfair of me to not mention Patrick Stewart's performamce as Charles Xavier. His character is also notably different than he's been in previous films-but he still ends up being the voice of reason-and even adding to the film's humor. Boyd Holbrook also does a fantastic job as the villainous Donald Pierce. One other thing that stands out in Logan is the action scenes. Each sequence that has action is unequivocally relentless and mercilessly engaging. Action aside-the story contains western elements and some emotional scenes. I think back to all the other films that involved both Wolverine and Charles, and the dynamic shared between these two characters also benefits Logan as a movie. And even as Logan shows Wolverine's brutality, the movie highlights Logan's own moral compass. What director James Mangold has done significantly better overall with Logan is given the audience a much more complete film, and has delivered a rousingly sensational comic book film.

You will love him in what used to be considered the final installment in the Wolverine series, and James Mangold directs this so incredibly well. You really get the angst, you feel the urgency, you even get a fair amount of humor mixed in at unexpected points. Of course, Hugh stands out--as well as Dafne Keen as X-23--with him being her father. I even saw this at the theater, and that is why I had to have this as soon as it came out and the price on it went down, because it is such a classic, and it checks all the boxes. By the way, James Mangold also directs Ford versus Ferrari, which is another movie I recommend because of how well this director manages the plot, the action, making sure the actors generate the feelings that truly show through in the movie... You just can't go wrong with ordering this if you like X-Men or Wolverine at all.

Never have I been happier to have been wrong. Logan is a masterpiece. Told in the fashion of a post apocalyptic western with more heart wrenching performances than one should be able to produce or endure, Logan is transcendent. Fox and James Mangold have produced a definitive finale, that as with Christian Bale's turn as the Dark Knight, should be deemed a legacy and never again touched. Now - on to my review. I went to see this final opus to long term legendary character, Wolverine, with lowered expectations. I expected it to be bleak, perhaps bordering on nihilistic. The notion that the template for the film was the Alan Ladd western classic “Shane” did not fill me with much hope. I came with lowered expectations after “The Wolverine” which still stands in my opinion as one of the worst superhero if not worst general movies of all time. That James Mangold who directed said film was heading this present run made me leery. Then something happened, the film titled simply “Logan” was something entirely different. In this case, different is good. Hugh Jackman pours his heart and soul playing a shadow of the man who was once such a force of nature. Patrick Stewart’s performance as Charles Xavier was incredibly moving and downright heart breaking. The find in this film, however, is newcomer Dafne Keen as Laura/X-23. In her first big screen outing this young woman’s performance is so damn incredible that words simply fail. She is essentially presented as a feral child. She has to convey such a variety of emotions with nearly no dialogue. The range she demonstrates is fantastic and Ms. Keen’s future as an actress at her 11 years of age is filled with promise. Her physicality, raw hurt and soul shattering rage are mitigated by a subtle compassion and heart of a protector. She seamlessly covers Xavier when they are attacked by a group known as “The Reavers”. Her propensity for violence leaves no question as to her parentage. Xavier smilingly remarks “does she remind you of anyone Logan?” His later comparing her to a lioness complementing her variant of Logan’s enhancements with her equal alacrity at defense is apt. This is an R rated film. It is a hard R. The violence in this venture is breath taking. Both Logan and Laura are warriors and the exhibiting of each mutant’s ferocity is something to behold. This is not standard Marvel fare and it did not purport to be. It needed to be an R rated film. Set in 2029 after the essential decline and imminent potential extinction of mutants, this is not a fun romp. It is definitively a dark turn. It is so much more though. “Logan” has grit, touches of humor and above all flourishes of what it is to be human. The notion of being a parent and all that comes with such a responsibility is aptly illustrated via the father son dynamic of Charles and Logan. The desire for a parent via Laura is so painful to watch but you simply can’t look away. There is a later scene in the film where Laura acknowledges Logan as her father that is soul crushingly beautiful. Make no mistake, this is not the Wolverine of X-Men films past that some have grown up with. Logan is older, more down trodden. Two incidents inform his present state, the more traumatic of the two being the “Westchester incident” which indelibly links Xavier and Logan to the end. Some have criticized this segment not being presented in flashbacks, but there is no need. We can deduce what happened and this is horrible enough. Xavier’s later confession of remembering 'what happened' when he cites having had a “better day than he deserves” is a harsh enough reveal. The film starts off as nigh apocalyptic with its dusty, subdued tones and desert locales. The place beyond the Mexican border where Logan ‘houses’ Xavier is bleak as hell. Stephen Merchant’s Caliban is his part time caretaker. Like Logan, he too has committed acts for which he must atone. The sight of Xavier in failing mental health and decline was something I thought I could not get past. One does however as he manages to. His resurgence into the real world as he finds a cause worth living for is exceptional performance on Stewart’s part though we should expect no less. Merchant’s role is well played with the actor known for predominantly comedic fare presenting a resonant, rich character one can easily feel empathy toward. Boyd Holdbrook’s “Donald Pierce” is a stylish villain. He presents his character with an arrogant tone of menace belying a sly charm. He makes the role his own playing an unapologetic bastard who has the hubris to refer to himself as “one of the good guys”. The low key effects of his and his Reaver cohorts’ cybernetic enhancements were well done. This is a grounded movie and there is no need for heavy CGI or visuals. In that same vein, the illustration of Xavier’s “weapon of mass destruction” mind as he has physical incidents/seizures was astounding. The scene in which he attempts to protect Laura and instead basically “EMPs” an entire casino was a terrific sequence up to and including Logan attempting to reach him to help. Richard E. Grant’s “Dr. Zander Rice” is a cruel extension of the man who both gifted and cursed Logan with his adamantium skeleton. His performance is nothing new but Logan’s dealing with him was unexpected and played exceedingly well. The notion of Logan and Xavier’s past informing their present is presented with a physical manifestation or personification of fate’s retribution via X-24. I’ll say no more on that subject. Hugh Jackman proclaims he is done with this character and I believe him. My sincerest best wishes to whoever attempts to pick up the mantle of Wolverine. Their work is very much cut out for them. Hugh Jackman is Logan/Wolverine and this final film is a firm punctuation of the fact. I could continue to expound on the many successes and accomplishments of this character swan song. I’ll wrap it up by saying Logan is easily one Marvel’s best forays and despite a profound harshness still hearkens to a hopeful direction for future endeavors. Simply put, you must see this movie if you are a fan of the genre or if you simply want to see an incredible film. Logan is irrefutably, simply outstanding and well worth your time.

El producto viene empaquetado, se agradece porque normalmente Amazon falla en ese aspecto. El producto es nuevo y sellado, la caja en perfecto estado, discos sin defectos, lo recomiendo, no se arrepentirán.

Fallo mío al no mirar bien ,no vale para Europa . Es una pena

今までのX-MENとは、系統が異なり、ストーリー重視ですね。 X-MENは多くの能力者が出てきて、戦うのが面白かったんですが、全体的に暗い内容なので、あまり好きではありません。
