X-Men Origins: Wolverine - a good addition to series

Rating: 7/10 (27 July 2013)

I am a big fan of the original trilogy of X-Men films. Wolverine is my favourite character so I was really looking forward to watching this.
I think the idea to learn more about his early life was a good idea. There was plenty of good over the top action and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine is superb as usual but the story just wasn't as interesting as it could have been. It was just the kind of film where after 20 minutes it became very predictable.
Overall I would still recommend this film, whether you have seen the original trilogy or not it should be quite easy to follow. It was decent viewing, a good addition to the series but not as good as the others.
7/10
