"Nature made me a freak. Man made me a weapon. And God made it last too long." - Logan

Why watch this? ...it is a poignant finale for one of film's great super-hero personas.

Plot Summary: In 2029, a worn-down Logan, aka Wolverine, cares for an ailing Professor Charles Xavier in a secluded hideout near the Mexican border. Their quiet existence is upended when a young mutant girl, Laura, with powers akin to Logan's, seeks his protection from pursuing dark forces. Reluctantly, Logan and Xavier embark on a dangerous journey to escort Laura to a rumored safe haven

Dad's Preview: Hugh Jackson did it the right way. He won the role of Marvel's Wolverine and made it his own. He respected the part, and never disappointed the fans. This is a wonderfully violent send-off thanks to Jackson and Patrick Stewart, reprising his role as Professor X. It started with them, and should end with them. I'm sad to see him retire. I'll miss that scowl. It was a great ride. Thank you, Hugh!
(Well, he's back in the new Deadpool film!)
