Logan

Go
It would be more appropriate to describe Logan as a western. In fact, it references my all time favorite western Shane. Even the ending lines echo Shane. No more guns in the valley.
“Joey, there’s no living with it,” Shane says to a teary-eyed Joey at the end of the movie. “The killing. There’s no going back from it. Right or wrong is a brand. A brand sticks. There’s no going back. Now, you run on home to your mother and tell her … tell her everything’s alright. There aren’t any more guns in the valley.”
When the pint-sized killing-machine X-23, who Logan protects for most of the movie, quotes those lines from Shane and turns over the cross on his grave into a little “X” it carries a genuine emotional oomph. Sniffles and tears galore.
Hugh Jackman is fantastic in the lead, giving arguably his best performance in the role. Newcomer Dafne Keen as Laura (X-23) was also fantastic and very believable in every second she’s on film.
Read my review of Shane, watch Alan Ladd and Brandon de Wilde in Shane and then go see this movie.
