Excellent and awesome.

Rating: 9/10 (16 May 2009)

Those were the two words I had when I was watching this film.
Why?
Cause it was just a great action film. Now before I start giving my "opinion" I just want to say that I'm not going to explain the movie to you. That's what the synopsis at the beginning of the page is for.
Let me just start by saying I love back-stories. That is the reason why people saw this movie. I mean there's a reason why they called this film X-Men Origins- because back-stories and explanation is what put peoples rumps in the movie theater- especially when it's the back-story of the most popular X-Man to date. You know who I'm talking' about. I'm talking' about Wolverine baby, and let's just say Hugh Jackman has this character in this pocket, and you can see that he's into it. I mean this is one character you don't wanna play half arsed (I don't like cussing) because every fan in the world is gonna ream you for it.
And Liev Schrieber? Well let's just say he is the pepper to Wolverine's salt, the back to Wolverine's front, he compliments him in every way. And they put in an interesting little tid bit involving Sabretooth and Wolverine. Excellent.
And the battles- well I would almost say the battles are revolutionary. I think it will bring comic film cinema to new heights. Rarely does a comic book film have action the ENTIRE way through. And that is awesome.
I must say I was rather shocked about the low rating of Wolverine on this site. I don't know what people want out movies these days. It has everything, action, humor, intrigue, good acting- you know- the works. I just think people put films in a box. They become so critical that they can hardly enjoy them. I think sometimes people let small stuff get to them, and they miss the whole experience of the film. Just have fun. I mean that's why they made this film in the first place.
You pay ten bucks. Might as well enjoy it.
