Mutants are supposedly the next step in human evolution, and have become the world s new target of discrimination. Xavier on the other hand runs a school for young mutants, and teaches them how to use their powers for good, and live in society at peace with normal people. We follow the journey of a mutant named Logan, better known as Wolverine, played by Hugh Jackman, who brings Wolverine to life with heart, excitement, and stays true to his comic book counterpart. It deals with the universal theme of feeling different and being an outsider. This is a theme that is prevalent in comic books, but often misses on screen.

For the DVD, many cool X-tras were included, but it appears to be just the tip of the iceberg. There are clips from a Bryan Singer interview, but far from the full interview. However, there are plenty of goodies to keep you entertained. There are two hidden extras, character sketches of The Beast and The Blob, two X-Men comic characters that didn t make the film. There is also an outtake, where a certain friendly neighborhood web-slinger shows his face.
