Logan is an overlong X-Men spin off, the final part of the Wolverine trilogy. A cross country, western that marks the final days of the main X-Men characters.

The story is based on Mark Millar's 'Old Man Logan' and it takes place in 2029 where mutants are almost extinct and the X-Men have disbanded.

Logan works as a chauffeur in El Paso and his powers are weakening and he is ageing. He regularly crosses the border to Mexico where he looks after the infirmed Professor X (Patrick Stewart) whose powers are also waning and he is becoming senile and has erratic seizures.

Logan is approached by a nurse for biotechnology company, Transigen, who wants Logan to escort her and an 11-year-old girl called Laura to a place in North Dakota called 'Eden.' Logan reluctantly accepts after he is offered lots of money, but the nurse is soon killed and Laura, Logan and Professor X are pursued by goons from Transigen.

The company bred mutant children using the DNA samples of mutants. Laura has powers similar to that of Logan because she was created from his DNA.

The film starts off really slowly and has pacing issues throughout the film, not helped by the length of the film. When the action arrives it is fast, furious and hard edged. This is the most violent X-Men film, ironic considering that one of the main character is a child.
