    WOLVERINE - all claws, hype and very little bite. GRADE: C

    by MOVIES REVIEWER

    4/30 Thurs - I just attended the advance press preview of this 107minute action-flick on Wolverine's origin - starring Hugh Jackman - although you'll feel little/no empathy for Wolverine's character.

    Because I'm familiar with Marvel Ent.'s products/characters, I was perplexed by many Marvel comics characters that appeared so briefly with little/no character development - as if the producers/screenwriters/director were trying to cram as many characters as they can into the movie at the expense of a stronger better developed plot.
    I hated how they twisted/perverted the Emma Frost character since she is nothing like as portrayed in Marvel comics.

    WOLVERINE delivered lots of action but director Gavin Hood exercised restraint on scenes of gore/blood just to earn the movie's PG-13 rating - totally watered-down. UNSATISFYING ending.

    BONUS scene AFTER the credits.

    ALERT!!!
    SPOILER:

    Prof. Charles Xavier appears at the end.

    VERDICT:
    MEDIOCRE 'action' movie - a rental.

    The Good, The Bad, and The Wolverine

    by Kyle_Adkins

    The Good:

    At the beginning of the movie, Deadpool was played perfectly. Smart ***, Bad *** character, slicing and dicing his way through 20+ men. All of the comments just spiced up and brung him to life. Perfect portrayal (In the beginning of the movie.. that is..).

    The Bad:

    I entered this movie with really high hopes (Specifically because Dead pool is being played by Ryan Reynolds, whom they could have picked no better part for!) for a highly entertaining movie, but I was too pissed off about the direction this film took to really care. Being a fan of X-men for a long time, I was rather horrified as they butchered the storyline so mercilessly to try to spin off a new thing. Look Hollywood, I get it. You like to "Jazz things up", but honestly there is only so far you can take things.

    The Wolverine:

    Your claws look like crap. I've never seen worse CGI. It's almost like they were done in MS Paint. Please fire the guy who did it.

    Wolverine:Origins

    by marcsanti

    Overall I thought this movie was pretty good, one of the better Marvel movies. It has it's usual downers, for instance not following the original story, but that's just how the movies are. I thought Liev Shreiver (sp?) did an awesome job as Sabertooth, definately better than the one in X-men, especially since this time we got more background on his character. Hugh did a great job as Wolverine, as always. Ryan Renolds as Wade Wilson (Deadpool) did an awesome job. He may have had limited screen time (this is about Wolverine after all), but for the times he was in it, I thought he did an awesome job. Bad *** fight scene, mixed with witty humor, made Wade Wilson a great addition to the movie. Gambit was really cool to see finally, did a great job with his character and the use of his ability. Besides those 2, it was nice to see some new mutants (Blob, Spectre, Young Cyclops). Although the reviews of this movie are mixed, I still think its a movie to see in theatres.
