A bit disappointing

Rating: Null/10 (23 November 2013)

This film tells the story of Wolverine combating bad guys who targets the family of the man whom he saved in Japan during the Second World War.
This is the second Wolverine spin off already in recent years, and hence this Wolverine has certain expectations to live up to. I find "The Wolverine" to be all talk and no action. There is so little action scene, and even the ending fight isn't that spectacular. Maybe Hollywood has spoilt viewers so much by the amazing visual effects, that "The Wolverine" looks rather underwhelming. The story is far too contrived too, especially the love story between Wolverine and Mariko. I find it very hard to believe that they would fall in love under the circumstances.
As a big budget blockbuster, I think "The Wolverine" leaves much to be desired.
