Not as good as X2 and X3, but at least better then X1.

Rating: 7/10 (2 May 2009)

I didn't like the first X-Men(2000), because when I look at it, it appears to be on such a low budget, the only reason it worked because of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, his portrayal as the charming rebel pretty much made the picture. In 2003, X-Men 2 came out, and it suppressed more then what part 1 ever could, and in 2006 X-Men 3:The last Stand came out, it did alright but not quite as good has part 2 did. In all those it was Wolverine that pretty much made each film. Those films would have been nothing without him. I had a feeling it would be a matter of time, he would get his own movie.
This is another prequel, it shows Wolverine life before he joined the X-Men. This movie had incredible action, and a great performances by Hugh Jackman and Liev Schreiber as Victor Creed. But this movie suffers from one serious flaw. It was too fast paced, like on speed dial. I felt we didn't get enough time to get know most of the characters, some just come and go pretty fast, some talents in this film are just so unused. But the awesome action makes up for it.
Will there be a sequel? Only time will tell. But I'll tell you this much it kind of leaves it open for one.
