Good not Great

Rating: 7/10 (25 July 2013)

As the title says i thought this was good but not great. I didn't mind the fact the film felt a bit slow in parts, I didn't even mind that most of the action scenes were already shown in the trailers it's just i felt there was something missing from this.
I felt the Viper was a bit weak and the way the ending came about with the Silver Samurai was a bit predictable. I will say i thought Yukio was excellent and Jackman as Wolverine was excellent as well. I understand why Jean Grey was in his dreams, To show the anguish and pain Logan goes through but i did think the film could have done without it.
I love the whole Samurai thing, The Eastern culture fascinates me but i can't seem to put my finger on what stops this being anything above a 7/10 for me. It may be that i will enjoy it more on the second watch but there is still no doubt that it is better than Wolverine: Origins while possibly on a par with the best X-Men film.
