Remy

Rating: 7/10 (25 April 2010)

Overall, Gavin Hood gave it mediocre direction...I'd say on par with McG's Terminator Salvation and in some ways better than Bryan Singer's take on it all. What can I say, Jackman owns the character in it's entirety and the introduction of Reynold's as Deadpool made it all the more worth it despite some drastically minute screen time. The only major flaw, because the acting wasn't all that great (I never expected it to be) was casting Taylor Kitsch as Remy LaBeau/Gambit. I find it hard to believe that he pulled off the task of bringing Jim Le and Chris Claremont's version to life, especially since it was the first time the character graced the big screen. Horrible Cajun accent and despite my heterosexuality, I find it hard to believe that this guy possesses the famed charm Remy had on women. Danny Houston on the other hand worked nicely.
