Wolverine, fan favorite of the X-Men universe in both comic books and film, gets his own movie vehicle with X-Men Origins: Wolverine, a tale that reaches way, way back into the hairy mutant's story. Somewhere in the wilds of northwest Canada in the early 1800s, two boys grow up amid violence: half-brothers with very special powers. Eventually they will become the near-indestructible warriors (and victims of a super-secret government program) known as Wolverine and Sabretooth, played respectively by Hugh Jackman (returning to his role) and Liev Schreiber (new to the scene). It helps enormously to have Schreiber, an actor of brawny skills, as the showiest villain; the guy can put genuine menace into a vocal inflection or a shift of the eyes. Danny Huston is the sinister government operative whose experiments keep pullin' Wolverine back in, Lynn Collins is the woman who shares a peaceful Canadian co-existence with our hero when he tries to drop out of the program, and Ryan Reynolds adds needed humor, at least for a while. The fast-paced early reels give an entertaining kick-off to the Wolverine saga, only to slow down when a proper plot must be put together--but isn't that perpetually the problem with origin stories? And despite a cool setting, the grand finale is a little hemmed in by certain plot essentials that must be in place for the sequels, which may be why characters do nonsensical things. So, this one is fun while it lasts, if you're not looking for a masterpiece, or an explanation for Wolverine's facial grooming. --Robert Horton

2 out of 5 stars Enjoy your One Viewing.   July 28, 2010
John B. Ludwick (Indianapolis, IN United States)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The first act and opening credits of Wolverine are very strong, except for an uncomfortable, almost comical bit where a little boy runs around with claws. The Logan character, as played by Hugh Jackman is very well realized and easy to like - but the overblown plot around him is not going to make this movie watchable for generations. Hats off to Hugh Jackman for the performance - I paid to see the movie just his artistry more or less.

Just eat your popcorn and enjoy the ride since it's not one you're likely to revisit.

SPOILER: The Uncanny Valley is breached in the final scene when Professor Xavier (represented by the lost digital rights of Patrick Stewart) shows up looking like a broken Disney Animatronic. It's horrible. They should have cut that!


2 out of 5 stars Has nothing to do with comic book accuracy   July 20, 2010

If you're looking for a movie adaptation of the origins and overall tragedy that is Wolverine then you have to wait until they make that movie. This movie is very,very,very inaccurate of Wolverine's history. I would say they got 10% right and the other 90% they made up on the spot... I suppose if you have no knowledge of wolverines history then this film might be acceptable to you. But fans of the comics know this is not wolverine. First of all if you want to make a wolverine movie then you have to accept that it's going to be bloody and then you have to rate the movie "R". I don't think I saw a single drop of blood even when wolverine was slashing people left and right. What I don't get, is they could have stayed true to wolverines' actual history and strife and still have a better movie than this. The laymen's would have been happy as well as the hardcore fans. I hope they don't mess up the upcoming Deadpool movie like this fiasco, god help marvel if they do.


4 out of 5 stars The wolf in man incarnation fascinates and scares us   July 17, 2010
C. B Collins Jr. (Atlanta, GA United States)
Hugh Jackman is an outstanding actor and in this film, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, he demonstrates that he can command almost every scene in a full length film. The viewer never tires of watching him overcome one conflict after another. He commands empathy from the viewer and is in virtual control of the entire film from start to finish. Playing his brother, Liev Schreiber, also demonstrates his considerable skills playing a highly threatening, violent man-beast. We do learn the origin of Wolverine as young Jimmie Logan and his brother discover the gift of an animal nature within both of them and they exercise this violent side in the US Civil War, World War I and II, and the Vietnam conflict. The special effects were outstanding. The other members of the cast were totally superior, including wise cracking Ryan Reynolds and darkly beautiful Lynn Collins. The script was a bit too predictable. However, underneath all the millions of dollars of production and talent, there is a fascinating theme embodied in Wolverine, which is the struggle between the human and savage animal nature of mankind. Wolverine struggles with this duality but part of the fascination in watching Jackman is that at some level every viewer recognizes that we are all like Wolverine, constantly struggling to maintain our higher nature and control our most violent impulses. In this story, we see Jimmie Logan maintain control and seek serenity while his brother allows every violent animalistic impulse to rise to the surface and control his actions. But it is not just his brother who demonstrates a homicidal ruthless nature. Danny Huston plays a project director who will stop at nothing to control the gifts that have been given to the mutants. This is an entertaining film. It is not full of subtle nuance and is rather straight forward story-telling. Jackman and the rest of the cast make it special.


5 out of 5 stars Best X-Men Movie by far.   July 15, 2010
J. Galbraith (Florida)

I am a huge comic book fan (read: dork) with literally thousands of X-Men Comics (everything from 1979 on basically), and I loved this movie. I liked all the X-Men movies, but this one was the best in my opinion. It was a far more personal story (obviously) and all of the actors were great. I especially liked Gambit in this movie. I thought he was portrayed wonderfully, and I really hope after the Deadpool movie, Gambit gets his own movie with the same actor, as he was AWESOME. This was the X-Men movie I have been waiting to see for 20 years, and I was not disappointed. I can only hope more of the X-Men movies are like this one!


1 out of 5 stars Predictable   July 7, 2010

For this movie to have been any more predictable, they'd have to have included the script with the DVD. Seriously, this movie was a major letdown. It got to the point where I, having never seen the movie, could point out when a character was about to die. I personally wasn't a fan of the fact that pretty much every character in this movie who isn't in one of the other 3 X-Men movies dies before the end. The story was linear, the characters static and unrealistic, and the movie was filled with gratuitous action scenes that seemed to only be in the movie to make Wolverine look cool. If you want to see a bunch of mindless violence without meaning or purpose, and that won't even make you cheer, then this is the movie for you(although if this is what you're looking for, I recommend something like a Resident Evil video game....at least those have interesting stories attached to the mindless violence). However, if you want a movie that has any sort of a satisfying plot, or interesting characters, then this is not the movie for you.
