Nothing new in the plot - everything is predictable. Story is very lame. Acting is so-so. There is no suspense or drama at all. Skip this one and see the other X-men movies.
This Movie is a Total Waste of Time and Money

Three years is a long time to wait. For some, it is a wait for redemption after "X-Men: The Last Stand" relentlessly assaulted what made the X-Men so appealing in the first place and grandly blasphemed two of its most beloved... Full review

X-Men Origins: Wolverine is basically a soulless movie. I found almost all of the performances to be good, Hugh Jackman was great as always. The visual effects were good, the stunts were good, etc. The movie falls apart due to the... Full review

Forget the reviews that focus on dialogue (it's a comic book character, of course it's clichéd) or other types of thing you may look for in movies like a Room With A View. In this movie you want to see cool... Full review

Easily the worst and a most unnecessary entry in the X-Men film series. The action is very average and not all that exciting. Most of the time, it's just Wolverine and Sabertooth going at it, and none of their fights in... Full review

I saw this movie over the weekend. When it was over, I kind of sighed, shrugged and said it was okay. I gave the movie a 5 which I think is pretty darn generous. Here's the positives of the movie. The... Full review

I'll state my credentials up front: I'm a chick. I have read X-Men comics in my past, but it's been years. I don't remember every detail of every relationship and back story, so I'm not a huge X-men expert. I LOVED... Full review

Assuming I knew nothing about the real origins story, I didn't notice all the editing/cgi problems, and that I didn't notice major flaws - this movie was still just alright. Marvel just decided to cash a check this time - The... Full review

Watching Hugh Jackman play Wolverine again is like watching Anthony Hopkins play Hannibal again; no matter how bad the movie is, it's still great to watch them play their iconic, and #1 career roles. 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' unfortunately starts off slow,... Full review

This film was slated to be a blockbuster film, and it really is. This is the type of movie that is made to eat popcorn to and watch the flashy graphics. With that in mind, the movie delivers, perhaps not as... Full review

Not to say that Wolverine is a good film -....Along with the excellent picture and sound on Blu-Ray, it also comes with a copy on DVD and a digital copy for your ipod -....Shame, as Liev Schreiber is a decent character actor....Dominic Monaghan is great but all too brief in his Electro-like appearance..... ...

Wolverine is at least fun, if deeply flawed....From the faintest ambient noise to the implosion of a nuclear reactor, Wolverine's lossless audio never disappoints.....is not the strongest mutant film available....The infamous young Storm scene shown in advertisements and the Japanese bar scene alternate ending are two of four scenes included.....it is a fair amount of fun with Hugh Jackman playing the role of the animalistic mutant with a burdensome conscious to perfection..... ...

Overall, it's not a great film....Disregard the online fanboy rants that will tell you X-Men Origins....the special effects and the film's finale leave a little to be desired, for the most part Wolverine is actually quite fun.....is some kind of awful piece of cinema.....Luckily, the characters are fun.... ...
