“LOGAN is gritty, and it’s dark but it’s far from being full of despair, despite the horrors the characters witness as the film progresses.” – Allyson Johnson, The Young Folks

“…the most varied, earnest and interesting take on a comic book character since THE DARK KNIGHT.” – Andy Hoglund, Movie Mezzanine

“Regardless of its flaws, LOGAN is without question one of the better superhero films in recent memory.” – Nick Casaletto, We Live Entertainment

“If I haven’t stressed this enough, this isn’t a comic book movie for your kids.” – Brett Michel, The Improper Bostonian

“After a while, it was hard not to notice that LOGAN was having a difficult time keeping up with the level of quality that had been delivered in the first act.” – Jaskee Hickman, Cinematic Essential

“For fans of the X-MEN, this is easily the best entry in the series in some time, a film that’s more interested in the characters than in the special effects.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

“Typically I tend to adore violent movies with tons of cussing, but none of the explicit gore or profanity feels at all organic to the picture here.” – Sean Burns, Spliced Personality

“It treats its characters with respect, and understands the trials and tribulations that high school can bring.” – Greg Vellante, Edge Boston

“…adequate entertainment for the current crop of teens and tweens, but it’s not one that their younger siblings will be wanting to see a few years from now.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

“…when the camera isn’t lingering on some unforgettably gruesome sights, it’s busy tending to a core of genuine human sadness, encapsulated by the fears of its characters.” – Andy Crump, Paste Magazine
