- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ม.ค. 2025
- Logan starring Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Richard E. Grant, and Dafne Keen is reviewed by Matt Atchity (Rotten Tomatoes), Alonso Duralde (TheWrap and Linoleum Knife podcast), and Christy Lemire (www.ChristyLemi...).
Read what other critics had to say: www.rottentoma...
It's 2029. Mutants are gone--or very nearly so. An isolated, despondent Logan is drinking his days away in a hideout on a remote stretch of the Mexican border, picking up petty cash as a driver for hire. His companions in exile are the outcast Caliban and an ailing Professor X, whose singular mind is plagued by worsening seizures. But Logan's attempts to hide from the world and his legacy abruptly end when a mysterious woman appears with an urgent request--that Logan shepherd an extraordinary young girl to safety. Soon, the claws come out as Logan must face off against dark forces and a villain from his own past on a live-or-die mission, one that will set the time-worn warrior on a path toward fulfilling his destiny.

What if this movie was named "No country for old X-men?"
+doesnotcompute81 What?
Logan is definitely a Marvel masterpiece.
agreed the movie is not credited as much but if you want a superhero movie with an intense emotional theme with the perfect farewell its Logan. Ok it is not original but its very true to its idea. So far only 2 movies have given Super Heroes the perfect send off. One was Logan , other was Terminator 2. Marvels End Game also tried and somewhat succeeded but there were just too many characters in it to allow it to create a strong emotional impact. An A+.
Kind of a low bar though.
Damn. From now to March, cinema is going to be stacked! Get Out, Logan, Kong: Skull Island, Beauty and the Beast. My wallet's gonna be hurting. lol
Jake G 2187 Wonder Woman comes out in June in the u.s.
coryinthehouse Wait, what? Did they change the release date? I could've sworn WW was coming in March.
nope it was always June.
Joseph Ocasio Well then my mistake. I'll edit my comment.
Jake G 2187 good thing it's coming out in June then 😂
I'm with Alonso with "saying this is the best 'wolverine' movie is damning with faint praise."
Alonso is always a whiny queen.
Holy shit matt lost a lot of weight...
Dude Matt looks amazing. What a transformation.
First whattheflick i've seen in a couple of months and he's completely different. I'm hoping it's diet etc.
thanks for the warning about the cell phone problem. I will give this film a miss
LOL I know right, jesus
Cell phone problem?
DarkDennis1961 nitpicking at its finest
I guess he didn't have anything to say anymore.
Actually directors have intentionally decided not to give any future look as it won't go with the theme of the movie
Futuristic devices can make a movie age badly if they make a bad prediction, which is often the case.
I'm so glad that Fox had the balls to make this an R-rated film. It helps shack the genera up and makes things more exciting.
Joseph Ocasio Actually Hugh Jackman put his own money in it originally Fox was trying to not do it but James Mandgold really made it well done
Joseph Ocasio I feel like they're not use to a true good anti superhero movie like Logan I really hate the phat bearded guy he's totally motherfuckin clueless
you kids and your silly ratings lol a mess
serenityq26 So what are you saying? What does that mean
shack the genera up...
Christy: 8.5
Matt: 8.5
Alonso: 7.0
You're welcome.
Wonder why he wasn't as enthused about as they were. I guess I'll watch and find out.
I mean he was still complimenting the movie. 7.0 is a good score.
Movie reviews aren't like Game reviews where 7.0 is a bad score for a mediocre movie.
I know. I said he wasn't AS enthused about it. I'm saying he still liked it just not as much as Christy and Matt.
People give way too much credit to ratings.
It's true Alonso wasn't as enthused but remember he rarely gives high scores. A 7 from him is like an 8 from other critic.
10 years ago cell phone...like the first iphone. so different from the iphone today right??? ¬¬
felipe estay Thank you!!! Fuck the only thing that has changed is you can now essentially have different screen sizes... real big leap. And with the world being in such disrepair in the movie I highly doubt cellphone tech is a big thing. Alonso is a moron and let's minor things irk him because he is clearly Autistic... which cool whatever be Autistic but dont review movies if the tiniest thing effects your views of the movie.
100% true
Wow Nit picking phones? Really? All this talk of super heroe fatigue and a character piece film comes along, and critics about how it drags between the action scenes? C'mon guys, critics will never be happy.
@5:57 I love how Christy asserts herself very kindly but dominantly - "Hey guys I'm not done talking yet. Let me finish my thought." Kudos 2
Damn does Ben even see movies anymore? Or does he just show up during Oscar season?
Cj Stevenson I think he watches more tv shows
Which lets face it tend to be where a lot of the good stuff is these days.
Ok, having not watched What The Flick in months, I must confess Matt's weight loss was striking. Well done, buddy, hopefully that didn't come on the tails of some medical condition, but well done regardless.
A solid piece of work... I didn't expect such high numbers.
The bearded guy is a terrible reviewer
Well being nitpicky is a trait a critic needs to have. It's good he sees things most people dont.
What you mean is that you disagree with him. You're terrible at knowing what words to use.
he stutters alot iii iii iii I iii I lol
He makes shit very personal whether he likes it or not. It's kind of annoying.
because he doesnt like Logan that much, the best movie ever!? come on man
It must be awkward for them after what at the Schmoedown....
familiar with the schmoes, but u got a link? idk what ur talking about
Cody Davies collider channel
what?
Juanscum381 what did they do??
what happened?
Do ppl realise if Xmen was reverted back to Marvel studios, a film like Logan would never have been made.
They said 2 good movies by this month, what was the other movie??
so heres a question how old is logan? He was born in like 1900? so why is he all the sudden getting old?
Walter Levesque the healing gene is breaking down.
Logan ages slower than most humans.
Best Volverine movie? It's the best Serious Super Hero movie period.
Lol to be fair to Alonso I also noticed the cell phone thing because there's a scene where there's a dialogue exchange and they say what year it is then it cuts to show the world then it cuts directly to his phone so it stood out. It's not a cinematic miracle to win Best Picture to validate fans' taste, the film has no concept of pacing, but it is really good I think 8's about right.
My whole cinema was in tears a the end, not a dry eye, was a lovely moment everyone looking around and sharing the same feels
Thank you for letting everyone else speak Alonso. Much appreciated.
It falls short of producing tears? What movie did you watch, Matt? I balled my eyes out.
Duralde gives it a 7.0 because he did not like the cellphones???
Totally expected.
Damn I haven't seen Matt in soooo long. Looking good man. I still remember hanging out with you and Jon Biel's family playing the Weakest Link and you beatin all of our asses!! LOL Good to see you doing well.
Congratulations, Matt, on winning the Schmoedown. WTFlick, keep on flickin'. Awesome to see you guys.
Enjoyed the review. Are you guys gonna do one for Get Out?
Need to start, along with the extended director's cut, to release an ADD cut of some of the longer movies.
It's weird that it's September and Logan is still the best movie of 2017.
Still waiting for that cure for wellness review
This is the movie of the year, perhaps the decade. It's grimness and despair rival that of George Romero and the Coen brothers, and in that grimness and despair it shows itself to be uniquely human. 10/10.
I was so enthused when I heard just now about this movie being a throwback to the 70s! It's almost a shame Jackman doesn't want to continue in the character because Mangold sounds like the perfect match for the mythology of Wolverine! I knew this series under Mangold's direction would be a charm the second time because he is an intelligent, awesomely talented filmmaker who probably listened to The Wolverine's criticisms and knew he had to improve. But, not to be downer, realistically it's gonna be very interesting to see the final box office total because it's R Rating! It is low budget but big studios expect super numbers for any comic book franchise! Especially for an X Men related property! I hope it makes enough to inspire an R Rated series of popular comic book properties!
Cannot believe Alonso complained about the cell phones...
Otherwise, thanks for great review. Glad to see Logan is liked by critics.
Don't forget Logan is older than both Prof X and Magneto. He lived through the Civil War. Dude has been through several world wars. Saying he's seen some shit would be a vast understatement :p
jean seberg tshirt?
Wow Matt is that you? Impressive transformation man. Kudos! 👏🏾👏🏾
Matt you need to bring back the beard my man
cell phones have barely changed since 2007 tbh
I have to wonder when people compare this to Old Man Logan, if they actually read the Old Man Logan storyline in the comics or just read a synopsis on Wikipedia or something.
Yeah, sorry dude, if you don't cry at the end you're dead inside. This movie wrecked me for a few days.
Serenade314 just saw it and my eyes hurt from crying. Ugly crying. Whoa boy....😭
Sooooo.... you guys just not doing a cure for Wellness?
Justin Madore I didn't know that came out this weekend?
I don't really want them to, I really enjoyed it and there's a 99% chance they are just going to sht on it
I saw it when it came out, AMAZING!!! 9.5/10 seriously.
Go see Stranger Things Christy!!!
Well let me tell you this, regardless of any review: If you want fist clenching revenge fueled carnage, emotionally heartbreaking and snot inducing human moments, and stellar acting from veterans and newcomers of the trade, go and see this movie now!
Even though Jackman said this'll be his last, the way this is being talked about and praised, it may not be!
has no one ever thought that the cellphone referenced by mangold might be a mockery for iphone that constantly selling out repackage? I mean..
Alonso I honestly lost all respect for you now! Subtracting points because they didn't get cell phones and cars right! SERIOUSLY?
He didn't say that at all. Feeling like pointing something out isn't the same thing as subtracting points. The concept of "subtracting points" also really doesn't apply to movie reviews. Movies don't start out as perfect and then lose points. That's how papers are graded in school.
Keith Ballard: Unless you go into a movie with zero expectations your argument is flawed. Most go into a movie with expectations of some degree, meaning those expectations are either fulfilled, exceeded or not. So in a sense you do actually substract points from a movie if you go into it with high expectations. Logan had a lot of buzz around it, and I bet the critics where excited also based on some very good trailers. So yeah, I don't buy your argument at all. And Logan was amazing btw. 9.5/10.

There was a bit at the end with a Wolverine action figure that killed me.
Logan: 10/10
Get Out: 8.5/10
Personally, I was pleasantly surprised the near future in Logan, for the most part, basically looks the same as modern day. Too many movies over-estimate the advancement of technology, and age horribly as a result. Sure, there will be some technological advances 12 years from now, but for the most part, things will largely look the same.
This movie was over-hyped for me. It was good, but not nearly as amazing as everyone is saying. Seeing Wolverine make people bleed is worth it alone. That and Patrick Stewart dropping F bombs.
With the whole cell phone thing I'm pretty sure I heard 2020 somewhere in the movie so it's not that far into the future x)
GypsyGuyy420 it’s meant to be 2040-50’s if the script is to be believed. Charles says the film Shane is about 100yrs old when they watch it. Shane was released in 1953.
Well if you're gonna get all nitpicky, we've basically reached peak phone at this point. There was a lot of innovation and experimentation between 04 and 14, but phones have largely stagnated since.
MobiusCoin They tried make them better... but they caught on fire...
This was Christy's hottest look. Simple, no crap jewelry, comfortable.....very attractive.
she looks like she crawled out from under a trailer.
I don't usually tear up at movies, but I was misty-eyed as fuck at the ending.
HAVE SEEN THE MOVIE!
*spoiler alert*

Manly tears have been shed
JR B omg yes. ugly crying 😭
So Alonzo is a fortune teller... what makes him think cell phones would've drastically changed THAT much in 12 years
Batman in Batman v Superman, he's old, but they don't really call attention to it, so Alonso is still right.
Yeah but like any other bit of tech, things become stagnant. There was a time when the design of traditional telephones drastically changed, then looked more or less the same for decades. Smartphones haven't changed much in the past five years, and I don't think they will change much more in the next decade.
without the obvious that would be impossible to happen stuff in the movie, it was actually a rough movie to watch, it just hit a little too close to home
I haven't watched What The Flick in a long time, I couldn't recognize Matt at all.
i dont mind the f bombs its just weird to watch the franchise and for some reason logan and Charles are motor bikers
Whoa wtf! What happened to Matt is he okay? Does he have cancer or something?
Alonso gave this the same score as Movie 43 because he had a problem with the fucking cell phones
Who cares about the cell phone aspect lol thats the dumbest reference of 2017
who is that man thar sounds like matt?
When was it ever good for Logan?
I'm still not convinced it's worth seeing. If Fox studios weren't so petty and joined the MCU, they could of done this movie right. As a huge fan of the original Mark Millar story and the current Jeff Lemiere run, it is my opinion that the movie version can never hold a candle to the comics.
MCU is a slog of borefests. So fucking routine. Only good once. Then nothing.
I had no idea that was Matt. He looks like a different person.
9/10 just a great come back for Huge Jackman
Began really strong and kept it up for a long time but started to lose me towards the end. It was still good stuff the rest of the film, I suppose, but nothing spectacular and not worthy of the beginning and middle.
I haven't been on this channel in a couple of years, and hoooooly shit that's Matt Atchity?!?!? Logan was great.
Why do the young turks sponsor this show? I really liked it until i saw that. :(
i want to see Logan take on the Iron man armor and fight with capt americas shield like in the comic
Get the movie, but to me it was a huge disappointment. The story drags severely at certain points and seeing a beat down, realistic, depressing Wolverine is definitely not why I go see super hero movies. I am placing this movie in an "alternate universe"; I just don't want to include it with the other ones... kind of ruins them!
it was weird that the phone died and didn't start back up until they stopped driving
Another movie with Johnny Cash playing in the background...
Only an 8! These people wouldn't know what a masterpiece is even if it slapped them in the face.
Not gunna lie.. the cellphone thing bugged me too
I really hate this "you have to fight yourself" meme that keeps repeating over and over again in these superhero films. I'm tired of seeing the end boss that's just an improved version of the hero. It's unimaginative and shallow.
First Superhero movie that made me tear up and one of the best of the entire genre. PS Matt did you give birth?!
I'm so ready for this movie!
No one should get offended by something as innocuous as Alonso giving this a 7 instead of a 9 or whatever. That's just silly.
Did you see Matt's face when Alonso mentioned cell phones? Like he just heard the most cornest joke lol
Hope you do a Spoilers review
Holy crap!! is that Matt??!! he lost weight
Wolverine in Japan.
Nobody could ruin that concept.
I haven't seen this movie but it already reminds me of "Blood Father".
For me and quite to the contrary, I oddly felt emotionally disconnected from this movie. What promise the trailers had, in terms of emotional engagement, this movie didn't have. "Logan" reminds me, in terms of a cinematic equivalent, of "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome", another movie which was the last part of a trilogy and meant as a goodbye to a popular character, a maddeningly able film that ultimately fails to deliver its true potential. And yes the movie is too long, by at least 10-15 minutes. X23 aka Laura is a badass, until she opens her mouth and starts to speak at which point she becomes annoying as hell, because she sounds like nails on a chalkboard. A 7 out of 10...
Do you know why Marvel movies are gonna go R? Because all of those kids who went to go see Iron Man with their parents back in 2008 have grown up, and they want to see grown up versions of their super heroes now. The 90's was not a good time for super hero movies, especially R ones. The 90's wasn't a bleak time, so gritty movies weren't popular. And comic books were for nerds. But now we have Trump, climate change, shit economy, and a new generation of senior teenagers ready to feast their eyes on some R-rated comic book movie violence. The kind of violence teens would see in drive-in horror flicks with their girlfriends.
throwing f bombs all of a sudden when they never did before
not just movie but they rate all movies so low like if everybody else thinks it's a 9 they give it like a 6.5 or it's about a 7 they give it 5 like wtf
My favourite movie of all time
Is that matt???? Holy shit!!!! Good on him for losing so much weight
Jesus, does Alonso like anything?
so are you implying that 7/10 is a crap rating?
The tactical Shark Not at all. He just seems to almost begrudgingly give a positive rating to anything save for indie films about gay cowboys eating pudding...... to quote South Park
Man it's going to take me awhile to get used to Matt being skinny and beardless.
Alonso is a savage
I was never into X-23 story line that there is a mini wolverine.
The world is crying!
