I don't fully know what to make of the allusions to the Bible, Shakespeare, and Hemingway--I can only recognize their basic existence in the background--but I feel comfortable saying it's the most intellectually stimulating and emotionally moving superhero movie ever. It translates the content of the most influential comics,
Watchmen and
The Dark Knight Returns, in a way no film adaptation has before. You sometimes here people describe what they view to be the better superhero movies as being "more than just a superhero movie"--in the case of
Logan, that statement actually rings true to me.
