An era of mutants, metal claws and a misunderstood man has officially come to an end.

From the moment Hugh Jackman announced to the world that “Logan” would be his final go-around as the Wolverine, the movie was destined to be a hit. Thankfully for Hugh Jackman fans and X-Men fans alike, it didn’t fall short, with Rotten Tomatoes justifiably giving the picture a whopping 92%.

“Logan” is the final installment of Marvel’s beloved Wolverine series. The film is a documentation of James Logan (Jackman) on his final mission: a road-trip across the country to deliver one of the world’s few remaining mutant children to safety.

“Logan” takes place in the year 2029, and no mutants have been born in over 20 years. Juxtaposed with the perennial and almost glamorous image the Wolverine of old possessed, the movie opens to an almost depressing first look at what the life of Jackman’s character now looks like. Logan works as a limousine driver in southern Texas, saving up money so he can take Dr. Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) out of their desolate residence south of the border in Mexico.

In their Mexican abode – a small, abandoned manufacturing plant – Logan and Dr. X live alongside a fellow mutant by the name of Caliban (Stephen Merchant), who is able to detect when fellow mutants are in his presence.

While no mutant had naturally been born in quite a while, Transigen is a corporation in southern Texas that has been breeding newborn children by injecting them with mutant DNA. A defector nurse named Gabriella Lopez (Elizabeth Rodriguez) escapes Transigen with a girl named Laura (Dafne Keen). Lopez approaches Logan and asks for him to drive Laura to safety in Eden, North Dakota, near the Canadian border. From then on, the film is a race to Eden.

From Hugh Jackman to Stephen Merchant, and the return of Patrick Stewart as Dr. Charles Xavier, “Logan” totes a star-studded cast. However, the picture certainly wasn’t perfect.

In terms of setting, the movie was a bit hard to follow because it was filmed entirely in the hills and valleys of New Mexico. While “Logan” was able to accurately depict the mesa-like landscape of Northern Mexico, there was absolutely no differentiating between the movie’s portrayal of Oklahoma from its portrayal of North Dakota. Within two minutes of screen time after their pitstop at a gas station in Oklahoma City near a mountain range, Logan and company were already in Eden. Problematically, the notoriously flat and barren North Dakotan land was depicted as being filled with mountains and trees – exactly what Oklahoma looked like. Put simply, I didn’t even realize the crew reached their final destination until it was explicitly stated.

That blemish aside, the movie’s other elements were spot-on. In particular, the gory special effects typical of Wolverine movies were a welcome yet bone-chilling sight. In addition, the scenes where all the child mutants in Eden were flexing their respective abilities were impressive, to say the least.

Overall, while I hate to see this saga come to an end, “Logan” is the perfect ending to Hugh Jackman’s illustrious run as everyone’s favorite canine: the Wolverine.
