Finally.

Rating: 8/10 (12 January 2014)

After X-Men 3 and Origins I really wasn't expecting much from The Wolverine, even the trailer seemed predictable.
What I watched was a fantastic, deep and moving action movie that made a seemingly immortal character vulnerable both physically and emotionally. The supporting cast were all excellent and the plot moved at a great speed through several twists and turns to an ultimately satisfying conclusion. The inclusion of Jean Grey was magnificent working to great effect and Hugh Jackman's performance was gripping in a role he is clearly not bored with yet. The Wolverine will get fans of the character and the X-Men who have been disappointed with Fox's treatment of the series back on board and chomping at the bit for Days of Future Past. Well worth the money.
