I wasn't really into it when it first came out but it's slowly grown on me and after hearing that Hugh Jackman is going to retire his wolverine character soon, it really makes me appreciate this movie more.
Does anyone else feel the same?
I really liked this film when it came out in theaters, but I LOVED it when I saw the director's cut.
My appreciation of the film has only increased given how much more of a somber reflective narrative it is that intertwines a infighting family dynasty with Logan's own character arc about immortality and finding a reason to live.
I love the big budget superhero films, too. The Wolverine (director's cut) finds that perfect balancing act of script, action, tension, acting, and plot structure. I love the cast, and this film has my favorite adaptation of Wolverine to date.
In our struggle to survive the present we push the future further away.

The Wolverine is one of my favorite comic book movies. I'm sad that Hugh isn't going to play the character any more.
