Logan

Hey,

A while ago I went to go see ‘Logan’ in the cinema with a friend and therefore if you haven’t seen it yet you should stop reading as I will be talking about the storyline as well as the media, so there will be some spoilers.

This movie is the type of film that you can’t miss a single minute because if you do you would miss something important and then would be lost. It is also wonderfully engaging and therefore you wouldn’t want to miss a single minute anyway.

 

This film would make more sense if you have watched the previous movies, but you don’t need to in order to understand the film as it has its own storyline. Logan therefore stands as its own film but links in with the sequel it is a part of. In this film, a good use of the different characters can be found as they are use well to show the passing of time from the past movies.

There is a good use of media in Logan which makes the film feel real, and even though it was not in 3D you still have the feeling of being there. This is created in many different ways, but the one that stands out to me is the fact that while watching the movie things are flying towards you creating the effect that they are going to hit you.

This film has a good use of lighting as it is used well to show the feeling of the main character ‘that is if you hadn’t guessed’, Logan. At the beginning Logan is portrayed as suffering from being depressed, and in pain as an old wound isn’t healing like it is meant to. The lighting used creates a gloomy effect which can be associated with depression and both emotional and physical pain.

The ending was portrayed well through the good use of media, that therefore made it feel real and created a strong sad emotional scene that the audience could relate with. The ending scene where he dies and the children escaped actually ended up making me cry, which shows how well the film was made.

Thanks for reading,
