X-Men Origins: Wolverine

by on May.09, 2009, under Movies

It was a last minute decision to watch the X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie.  We watched it at a Eng Wah cinema. I like the cinema because I was not forced to watch 20 minutes of advertisements. In fact, I think there was none before this movie started.

Before this, I do know know that Wolverine had his claws since young. Or that Sabertooth were his brother (Just found out this is a movie plot and not following the comic).  There was not alot of actions for this movie. There was a part when Gambit was hit to the ground by Wolverine. Then for no apparent reason, he came running and jumping from a tall building before attacking Wolverine. I think there was a serious mistake in here.

Read that his girlfriend is called Silverfox. I do not know much about this character but too little screen time is given for her. Nothing was said of how they met, and how come Wolverine did not know about her powers.  I thought it would be good to see the powers of the other mutants. Well, I think there was no more budget after introducing the polished claws.

Overall, I think the show served its entertainment purpose, but it did not awe me with any effects or plot.
