Wolverine (X Men Origins) directed by Gavin Hood

Wolverine. Directed by Gavin Hood. Written by David Benioff and Skip Woods. Starring Hugh Jackman, Live Schrieber, Danny Huston, Will I Am, Lynn Collins, Kevin Durand, Dominic Monaghan, Ryan Reynolds, Danniel Henney

This is an example of a mediocre super hero movie. I like the fact that Hollywood likes to go back to the root of some comics, an as was the case with tracking back Wolverine’s story. A couple problems I had with this film were the fact that at times Hugh Jackman’s mannerisms just were a bit much for me, an also im not too sure about the supporting cast in this movie, and I was much more impressed ith Zack Snyder’s Watchmen from earlier this year than I was with this movie. Although im a big fan of the Gambit character, and it was cool to see his role playing a big part in the film, although again, I thought the casting choices were definetely flawed. This was not bad from an entertainment perspective and had some bright spots, including a solid score, decent visual effects and cinematography and the writing/directing, although not superb or anything, was decent. 6/10
