Parents need to know that Logan is part of the X-Men series and is said to be Hugh Jackman’s final appearance as Wolverine. Families can talk about Logan’s violence.The main issue is the extremely strong, bloody comic book violence, including characters being sliced through flesh and skulls, shot, shown in pain, and killed. A young girl is involved in the fights, and there’s disturbing footage of children being mistreated in a laboratory settingLanguage is also really salty, with many uses of f-k, motherf-r, s-t, and more.
Performance & Plot : Jackman gives an astonishing performance as a hurting Logan; he’s no longer Wolverine, just a man who’s lived a hard, hard life and is looking at an unforgiving, grim future. Meanwhile, director James Mangold completely reverses the hatchet job he did on his last outing The Wolverine, here delivering a sad, fatalistic - yet stunningly poignant - look at regret and loss.Now he becomes human for the first time, experiencing what a family might have been like, as well as a longing for resignation. The movie has action, but, rather than celebrating exhilaration, it’s deliberately wearisome, shadowing the end of an era. Perhaps most profoundly, Logan achieves a sense of generations, of life changing, unknown, leaving some folks behind but trudging forever on.
