X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Pros: Jackman and Schreiber.  Entertaining movie overall.
Cons: Some characters seem out of place.  Plot could have been stronger.

The X-Men have been popular for years.  The various characters have been in different comic books and there have been three very successful movies as well.  Wolverine is one of the more popular X-Men characters.  Around the time ...

Pros: Acting, Storyline, Special Effects, Fight Scenes (For the ladies...Hugh Jackman Naked).
Cons: Dialogue Predictable.  Noted Lack Of Blood In Fight Scenes.

There is something about mutton-chops on a mutant character that indicates something extra special.  X-Men Origins: Woleverine gives us not one, but two mutton-chopped mutants to enjoy.  Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) is joined by his furry ...

Pros: Hugh Jackman, great supporting cast, lots of intriguing storylines, it's Wolverine!, great start to summer
Cons: some sub-plots may seem muddled, die-hard of the X-Men may not like the liberties taken

After X-Men 3: The Last Stand didn't do much to keep the franchise going, the thought was to take a page out of several other franchise playbooks, and just start the X-Men story over.  With this particular version of the re-start, the film ...

Pros: Plenty of action, good cast, some good SFX...
Cons: ... some poor SFX, sometimes predictable or illogical plot elements...

X-Men Origins: Wolverine had been keenly awaited but to be honest, after finding X-Men 3: The Last Stand completely fail to keep up the standards set by the first two X-Men films, I wasn't expecting too much of it.  As it was, I found the film ...

Pros: Hugh Jackman is Wolverine
Cons: Little character development; where's Stan Lee?

Jean Grey: "He has uncharted regenerative capabilities, enabling him to heal rapidly. It also makes his age impossible to determine. He could very well be older than you, Professor."--X-Men ...

Pros: Jackman and Schreiber work well together.
Cons: The story feels disjointed, the ending is meh.

I suppose the most telling thing I can say about X-Men Origins: Wolverine is this: I left the screening Wednesday morning feeling pretty pleased with what I'd just seen. Now, a day and a half later, I'm hard pressed to remember much of anything ...

Pros: Jackman is terrific, Schreiber and Huston very good, fun X-Men cameos
Cons: Plot and script are lousy, plays like a tired rehash of comic book cliches

After four films spanning nearly a decade, Hugh Jackman has pretty much perfected the surly, rage-filled Hollywood version of Marvel Comics's mutant stud Wolverine.  Even with sub-par material as a guide, he makes a film watchable with his absolute ...

Pros: fun, poignant, good story, fills in the gaps
Cons: some cheesy dialogue

X-Men Origins: Wolverine is exactly what the title implies.  This prequel takes us straight to the backstory behind the successful X-Men franchise.  It's an occupational hazard of the prequel that the writing is sometimes ...

Pros: Hugh Jackman Naked! And a good movie surrounding that.
Cons: Gratuitiously violent.  Not absolutely true to the comics.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine  (2009) Directed by Gavin Hood[Snikt! Logan pops the adamantium claws.]Victor Creed: Oooh, Shiny. Logan: You're gonna die for what you did to her! Victor Creed: Do ...

Pros: Lots of favorite characters make an appearance, good action scenes.
Cons: Wolverine is a little blah and the middle portion drags.

Summer blockbuster season has officially started, and X-Men Origins: Wolverine is first on the docket.  Although I loved all three installments of the X-Men Trilogy, I entered the theater with extremely low expectations after reading scathing ...

Pros:   Action, Descent acting
Cons:   CG, originality, predictability.

  I pretty much agree with the critics on this one. I am not wild about this movie. Let me just give you a run down why. The story was predictable. The action scenes were boring. And the computer special effects were down right horrible. They were ...

Pros: action sequences, cinematography
Cons: Light on plot, story, and character development.

While this movie is by no means the movie of the year nor does it approach the caliber and quality of film that we have seen in the Batman movies, it is a pretty good way to start off the summer movie season.  It doesn't lack for cool scenes or ...

Pros: well done action
Cons: paper-thin plot and generic dialogue

After watching the special effects extravaganza that is the opening of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, in which Hugh Jackman and Liev Schreiber fight and kill countless soldiers through at least three wars I can remember, the obvious struck me. Origins wastes ...

Pros: Jackman and great cameos
Cons: Action is a bit underwhelming for my taste.

The 2009 summer movie season has arrived with the releases of “X-Men Origins: Wolverine”, which once again stars Hugh Jackman in the role of the razor clawed Wolverine. The film follows the characters origins in the mid 1800’s ...
