Movie Review: Logan (2017)
“His Time Has Come.” Those words could not be more true with the release of 20th Century Fox’s “Logan” - the final film in the Wolverine trilogy of X-Men spinoff films that sees everyone’s favorite feral mutant facing his greatest challenge yet in life and legacy, as well as marking the final time Australian actor and Academy Award winner Hugh Jackman will play the role he carved into film history for 17 years since the original X-Men film released in 2000.
Last Monday, I got to see "Logan" c/o 20th Century Fox Philippines (and suited up with cosplay friend Mislaine as Wolverine and X-23 respectively to boot)... And to say it's breathtaking and X-CELLENT is just a few short descriptions of what is possibly one of the BEST films I have seen ever, going beyond the superhero genre even. That being said here's my review... And there may be slight SPOILERS here but nothing that gives away the main beats or ending to this powerful film in the X-Men film franchise.

Movie Review: X-Men: Days of Future Past
2014 started out as something to look forward to with promise,
hope, and potential, especially with the numerous blockbuster film franchises
and sequels hitting theaters throughout the year. The comic book movies in
particular were especially stacked, with not one but FOUR movies laid out in
the year's schedule, and all of them Marvel films featuring extraordinary
superheroes and characters.
Now comes one of the most anticipated sequels in 20th Century
Fox's long running X-Men film franchise, which brings together an ensemble cast
of stars and the return of the man who directed the first two installments of
the franchise. Yes, old and new generations literally crossover for the very
first time, in a film that sees Bryan Singer back at the helm for the live
action adaptation of one of the most controversial and beloved X-Men stories of
all time - X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Having already opened in various international territories, the
film is possibly THE BEST X-Men film ever with the array of talents and mutants
starring in this tentpole wonder. Seeing the film last Wednesday, I can truly
say this is something any X-Men fan, newbie, and those who have had numerous
issues with past films in relation to continuity, will definitely want to see.
Here we go with the Review! Possible SPOILERS AHEAD, so read at your own risk! Special Thanks goes to 20th Century Fox PH, Warner Bros. Philippines, SM Cinema, and The Philippine X-Men Team for making the premiere screening on May 19 such an Xciting Xperience!
