I had an xmen marathon the other night, starting with xmen first class, all the way to xmen 3. Without going into too much depth, here are my thoughts.
First class, I thought it was well done. I had heard about it being heavily influenced by the 007 films. You can definitely feel that vibe. Certain parts were kinda forced and didn't feel natural, but overall, it was good.
Origins Wolverine. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Not great, but not terrible either. The first half was real strong, but when he starts traveling all over the place looking for the guy that was looking for him...it was needless filler.
X1 and 2. Good films that lacked in action set pieces, but good films nonetheless.
And finally X3. Terrible. Just awful. I couldn't believe how bad it was. Like...what the hell. The fact I watched it last has left a bad taste in my mouth that will linger for a long time. I pray the sequel to wolverine will blow my mind.
Last but not least, Hugh Jackman IS wolverine. Like how many here consider Chris Reeve the definitive superman, Jackman is the definitive wolverine.
So, my fellow freaks, what say you?
