It's really refreshing to hear a lot of praise for one of these movies, and then to go and see it and it more than live up to the hype. That doesn't happen all that often in my experience.
Had to get one last viewing in of Hugh and Patrick on the big screen.
It's nice that we don't have flashbacks. When Logan is looking at his dog tag, everything we need to know is on Hugh's face. I really appreciate small things like that.
Finally got to seeing this today. Excellent film, emotional and brutal. X-23 was performed so well by the actress, Hugh Jackman gave it his all.
But damn it...I am a little depressed. I mean...It's over, all over. Been watching Jackman as Wolverine since 2000, and just...Man. the way Laura turns the cross into an X at Logan's grave, that hit me in the feelings like a 500 megaton bomb. It's an image that will be with me for a long time.

finally saw this today. I give it a solid 9/10!!
And, I rank it up there with TDK and Spider-Man 2 as one of the best CB movies.
while I have always felt Jackman was too tall for the role, and would have preferred a short actor for the part, THIS was the Wolverine performance and movie I have been waiting to see since the very 1st X-Men film.
it's a pity and shame that we had to wait until the last Wolverine film, but the wait was worth definitely worth it!
Third viewing of the film, still a great rewatch.
I mentioned this in my first review, but did anyone else catch how the opening Marvel logo seems to flip through a wider range of X-Men and Wolverine comics, as if to point out how this film is the culmination of almost everything? I recognized a few modern drawings of Jean in there as well as older comics.
The trailer did a great job of showcasing this, but another characteristic this film has going for it is the striking and provocative imagery. Maybe it's just how deliberately realistic it is compared to the more futuristic worlds of the X-Men, MCU and DCEU, but there is some definite power in seeing these characters inhabit very mundane situations. I think it speaks to how good the film is when something like Logan picking up Laura after the clash at the Munson farmhouse, her holding his shaking hand and even stuff like Logan helping push Will Munson's truck out of the ditch is something that leaves an impression and is powerful.
Also, Donald Pierce's look is really something else. I love all of it. The glasses, the skull tattoo on his throat, the rather minimalist cybernetic hand complete with Hellfire Club sticker, Boyd's swagger - it's an awesome adaptation of a character to be frank. A lot more interesting than a guy dressed in all white.
There's a great podcast with Craig Kyle and Audrey Kearns at Geek Girl Authority if you want to hear some real in-depth thoughts of his on Logan (which are beaming if you guys haven't read his Twitter or anything). One thing that surprised me is that Kyle doesn't like the 90s TAS and hates the voice acting so he wasn't really bothered by living up to it on Evolution/Wolverine and the X-Men and he believes Logan is the perfect Laura/Logan story ever told

After watching it again since I saw it in the theater, I have to give it a 10. It was brilliant, and I enjoyed it more the second time I saw it.
I'd have to say this is still the best movie I've seen, of all genres, so far this year. I cannot praise Fox enough for what they've done. Truly fantastic.
Finally saw it this morning. Overall.....I didn't like it. It was too depressing for me. I don't watch superhero movies to be depressed. Having Logan say the F word a hundred times did not impress me. The action was pretty good though.....and the little girl could growl with the best of them.....but neither of those things make me want to re-watch this depressing film again anytime soon.
