A fine entry for X-Men series

Rating: 6/10 (24 July 2013)

'The Wolverine' has improved a lot better than 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' but there is still something missing from it. Undeniably X-Men franchise couldn't stand for spin-off film, this would make it more like an ordinary superhero movie and not X-Men franchise, just 2 mutants appear in this movie: Wolverine and Viper, also the peak action scene isn't special. Fortunately, all of the actor here acts acceptably although most of them are Japanese and not well known at Hollywood industry. Some action sequences are still stunning though especially the scene when Wolverine fights on fast train. Overall 'The Wolverine' is still fun as summer entertainment. James Mangold as director has been brave to shot and bring Wolverine story at Japan which rarely happens in blockbuster movie. But it's too shame this movie lost in slow plot, repeatable and overlong storyline that sometimes make audience feels bored. And don't leave theater early because it has additional scene after end credit.
