this movie was bunk

Rating: 1/10 (26 May 2006)

The director tried too hard to make a blockbuster movie, and instead made blockbuster flop. He relied to heavy on special effects to drive the movie. The basis of the story hinged on the shoulders of Wolverine, who is an awesome character played by an awesome actor. But the movie should not have been carried by him alone. there were several other characters that could have been rounded out better and had a more central role. IceMan for instance, should have IceManned-Up and confronted Pyro in the last battle scene instead of having to be told by Wolverine to go take care of his old school chum. That fight scene was horrible in and of itself. so much more could have been done with that. The saving grace of the movie, if there is one, would be seeing Kelsey Grammar as Beast. He did a wonderful job and was even believable in the fight scenes, if it was him and not a stunt double. All-in-all, i will not be buying this when released to video.
