X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Edward Scissorhands meets Elvis - mj
Ok, so you got this guy who is a mix of Edward Scissorhands and Elvis (late 68 Comeback special version). Obviously if I had hair and burns like that, I would be annoyed too, but what makes this even stranger is the dude has knives that come out of his hands. Seriously, he could trim his own hair!! Anyway, he doesn't. He just goes gets angry, meets his brother, they fight like all brothers do, stuff blows up, people die. He should really have got the name of his brothers barber though.. Anyway, I really enjoyed the movie. It had most things I look for in a movie. Violence, comedic violence, violence induced by the death of a loved one... you get the idea. If you like X-Men, you will like this.

Again, the best thing about this X-Men film remains to be Hugh Jackman - Hanley

Not as good as the previous movies - shane_mceneaney
This movie was weaker that the previous ones. It started off well but I found myself looking at the clock for the last 45 minutes. MORE

They neutered Logan! - Bren
What a disappointment! This feels like a shoddy rushed effort, where the screenplay was hacked to pieces and the special effects where left in their preliminary state. We're given a glimpse of Logan... MORE

Is there anything to enjoy in X-men Origins: Wolverine? Sure. Some of the fights are cool. But for every solid moment there is an equivalent of pure muck. All in all, not a bad action movie. I'll... MORE
