A wolverine with the claws of a kitty.

Rating: 5/10 (4 May 2009)

Went to see this movie on alone, as I couldn't get anyone to join me. Apparently they were much smarter than I, since the movie was very poor.
Well, it had some action sequences, but they were not that nicely done and Wolverine never unleashed his true fury. On top of that he was glorified like a true American hero. As far as I know, the most interesting thing about Logan is his shady personality and unethical actions. This is how he was in his early years (at least the first 100 years he lived). Unfortunately Hollywood managed to make this dull and lemon like enough for me to squeeze its juices into a long drink instead, but it HAD no juice.
One might have hoped that if not Wolverine, then Sabretooth would have been ruthless. But even that he started off in the movie as a true villain showing no remorse or feelings when killing innocent people, he too ended up being vandalized by Hollywoods need to make everyone into a glorified hero.
Why not picture them as they're portrayed in the comics???? Stay at least a little true to their origin... Why else would you call it X-Men Origins, if you just make your own stuff up along the way.
Thin story, mediocre acting (except from Liev Schreiber), irrelevant directing. Another typical movie based on an already popular character to cash in some easy money from the success of previous movies sees the dawn of day.
Back to Basics and take a look at Iron Man or Batman to see how you make a movie portraying characters from comics.
I wouldn't even pay 5§ for it on DVD, which it ought to cost within the first month after release.
Play the game on Xbox 360, at least his claws get bloody after slicing human meat there. It wouldn't have made the movie any better though.
