Finally saw this and it was good. Not great, but good. I was loving it up until about midway and then it started to lose me some. Laura was a bad ass, but I hate doppelganger villains.
But tbh I kind of enjoyed X24. Didn't see it coming either.
I think they just didn't want to reference Origins:Wolverine. Iirc The only thing they ever acknowledged from that film were the bone claws. And that just as a convenient way for him to always have claws.
Not the best X-Men movie or even Wolverine film, I'm I missing something here?
they pushed the "oh man he's so broken and old and drinking all the time" ok so he's the mutant version of Jack Bauer.
I did enjoy the decapitation scenes, claws coming out on top again but the story was boring, it was far too long.

Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
Saw this Saturday, and looks like I'm in a minority here, but I loved almost everything about it.
Basically, this is The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly or Unforgiven. Even without a TV show blatantly telling the audience the influences, they're obvious to anyone who watched spaghetti westerns.
Could go into more detail, but I'll just say my favorite part is it's over. With Logan dead, they can't milk it with endless sequels. (Unless they follow X23? Maybe call it "Ms. Logan"? )
