Logan has been that way since day one. But hell, it can be argued that his portrayal in this film is much closer to the comics than in any previous film. Having said that, he acts more disgruntled and standoffish here than in all the past films because, well, he has every reason to. He has lived for hundreds of years and has experienced a great deal of tragedy, and the only thing he’s been hoping for after all this time is death. I mean come on... as far as he knows he is one of the only mutants left, he is committed to taking care of his ailing mentor (who’s responsible for wiping out supposedly most of the mutant race), and above all he is in physical and mental pain. The guy was completely miserable, and I must say that I can’t blame him for being this way.
So his portrayal in this final film was not only true/er to the Wolverine character, but pretty much perfect for the Logan we have come to know in the films. And no, he doesn’t annoy me... unlike a lot of those who pretentiously trash any comic character and movie (specifically comic characters/movies that don’t come from a super gloomy, hopeless, and overall “edgy” world) cuz they deem themselves too “mature” for that. LOL. :P
