Logan - 10
They nailed it. It was the Wolverine movie I always wanted to see.
Yup, Logan was a 9/10 for me. This movie was a road movie with the heart of a western. I loved how beat down Logan was and they established that early on. He was basically an old tough dude with knives (one of which was slow to unsheathe). By taking away his near invincibility and boiling the character down to who he is they made this movie a true character piece instead of a "Superhero movie". I kept thinking it was like No Country for Old Men meets The Professional (the flick with a young Natalie Portman being protected by a hitman). Logan is a superb drama with just enough action that kept me engaged the entire time. The three main characters were great and I actually felt a sense of dread as the movie reached it's conclusion. I hope even non-comic fans give this movie a serious look sometime as we probably won't see something like this again. If Hugh Jackman truly is done with the character, he sent him off in the best possible way.
I might see this one. Wolverine and Punisher were really the only comic book characters I liked as a kid.

I've been on vacation (and thus haven't paid a lot of attention to this board) however, while I was away we went and saw John Wick 2 in IMAX. 11/10. Would watch again.
The perfect mix of mindless action.
Snowden 10/10.
I loved it.
I thought the movie did a great job of portraying his blind patriotism moving towards skepticism and finally disgust.
Before anyone has a go, I am not commenting on its factual accuracy, just the quality of the movie.

8/10: Interesting story. Damn, Matthew McConaughey had scrawny body in this film. No wonder, he won the Academy award for Best Actor in 2013.
