Not quite the movie fans deserve.

Rating: 6/10 (4 May 2009)

X-Men Origins: Wolverine is basically a soulless movie. I found almost all of the performances to be good, Hugh Jackman was great as always. The visual effects were good, the stunts were good, etc.
The movie falls apart due to the writing. All the relationships between characters feel like they were just thrown together randomly because it was convenient. Wolverines past ( pre-adamantium ) takes up about the first 5 minutes of the movie, with some creative writing that 100ish years of his life could have been very interesting.
Basically this movie is an excuse to get as many mutants on stage as they can. Wolverine's back story takes second place to this and suffers due to that.
