In fact, before scoring, I was always depressed whether to give four stars or five stars. To be honest, my expectations before watching this film are quite large. It can be said that it is my most anticipated film in 2017, but the finished film is still Inferior and dissatisfied, not that it is not good, but that it is not good enough. This distance may be the difference between a masterpiece and a masterpiece.
But thinking of the tears in my eyes when Logan finally called the curtain call, it was really real. The feeling of vicissitudes and hope combined to touch my heart is also a rare movie-watching experience. One film that does this is enough. . At least as far as the audience is concerned, the moment that the suppressed emotions from the beginning to the end of the whole film erupted at the last moment, it can be successfully moved or touched, which shows that this work is a success for me! What is the meaning of watching a movie? This simple touch is the ultimate meaning! So I gave five stars without hesitation.
"Logan" can be said to be the most courageous, most special and respectable superhero movie in the past five years. The most courageous is that he, as the curtain call of the two leading actors, directly blocked the follow-up of the X-Men universe, even he As one of Fox’s large commercial sector, it does not have any direct guidance on the other works in the series. The name of the film directly named "Logan" can show that Fox’s demand for business has been adjusted to a lower level as much as possible (of course, the domestic publicity translation is the main The Wolverine card can be ignored.). Fox gave James Mangold sufficient creative authority, which is also extremely rare in superhero movies. Looking back, it is Tim Burton's strong personal style "Batman Returns" and Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight. In the last two films, Hollywood pays great attention to practical effects. Tim Burton's Batman has a strong personal style, but the market performance has declined severely. Later, there will be the tragedy of changing actors and directors until Batman is buried in Hollywood.
On the contrary, Nolan’s The Dark Knight was so successful and even a superhero movie that was uniquely successful, making Nolan’s right to speak in the industry thriving, only to have the protracted "Dark Knight Rise" (the film includes editing rights and many other important Nolan masters all rights), so much so that I am most disappointed with Nolan's film is "The Dark Knight Rises"...
The trilogy is over in a certain sense, Warner is busy playing his DC universe, and Nolan also has a greater pursuit of playing science fiction epic. This is all for later. In short, if a superhero film director wants to turn him into his own work, it has to go through the ninety-nine and eighty-one thresholds such as the CEO of the producer company. And those high-level people are only interested in making money from the things you photographed before. The more you make, the more authority the sequel will give you. If you haven't photographed my IP, it seems like a non-mainstream author style at the beginning. Sorry, please terminate the contract! For more details, see Disney's "Ant-Man" change director storm.
Now it seems obvious how capricious and courageous "Logan" is. He even got rid of the shadow of superhero directly, encapsulated the concept of superhero into the dimension wall and became the object of the protagonist's ridicule! Laura's favorite X-man comics were directly criticized by Uncle Wolf as childish and unrealistic. Such a small detail directly sublimated the film by no means purely the intention of a superhero popcorn film. Therefore, it is the most special superhero movie in at least five years!
"Logan" has no weird tights from beginning to end, no exaggerated superpowers, only an unreserved portrayal of the late heroes and old men. It is more like a Hollywood "psychological western" in the 1960s. The hero has lost its former glory, replaced by decline and fall. In the film’s storyline, Wolverine, Professor X and Laura embarked on a journey in order to reach the Garden of Eden and get rid of the chasing soldiers. On the way, the conflicts between "father and daughter", "mentor and apprentice" or "father and son" were resolved, which made it more like one. Department of highway emotional film. You can say that "Logan" is a cross-genre masterpiece. This is also rare in the field of other non-superhero movies. Finally, another excellent work that can get rid of the inherent label of superhero movies came out, which confirmed the particularity of "Logan" in the field of superhero genre films. Its success may allow the unpredictable Disney Marvel and the eager to make money of Warner DC to find another possibility for superhero movies. Of course, Marvel's failure to follow the trend of the dark style of "The Dark Knight" during that time is not advisable. of. Every superhero has plenty of potential to be made into an extraordinary genre. This possibility requires constant experimentation and thinking to turn into a masterpiece to gain audience approval. This is true for "The Dark Knight" and so is "Logan". .
The early word-of-mouth marketing of "Logan" is indeed very successful, and the film has just been released, but it has set a record for the premiere of foreign R-rated films in South Korea. I am very looking forward to its box office performance, because I hope to see it in the future More superhero movies have made such bold attempts. Even if his future box office performance may be unsatisfactory, it doesn't matter, he is still the most respected superhero movie in recent years.
