An action hero with struggles

Rating: Null/10 (25 July 2013)

The superhero that struggles with himself.
Many years after a nuclear incident where he saved the life of a soldier, this soldier ask to see Wolverine before he passes away. This invitation however has a hidden agenda and sets the motion for the film's plot.
Just when he convinced himself that his invincibility is a curse, Wolverine realises he needs it more than ever in order to save someone he has come to care for deeply. However at the time of his need and due to the trap set by the so called old friend, he has lost some and therefore the struggle is twice as intense and so are the action scenes.
It has become a bit of trend in Hollywood recently for the superhero to face struggles and it was with joy that in this film, the effort of making it more character driven did not come at the expense of the cinematic enjoyment. Ultimately, this is a science-fiction/action film and that ought not be ignored.
