most would agree that the character of wolverine be one of the most intriguing character in comic book history . i be no marvel expert and but i do grow up with the adventure of the x men and definitely approve of hugh jackman now widely know portrayal of the scruffy logan . i enjoy the first x men and find the sequel too heavy and messy and like the third one a comic book entertainment . all through the three movie and i probably enjoy jackman more than anything else . i figure the idea of make an origins movie about wolverine could very well end up be a good movie than all of the three x men movie . if we concentrate on one character and i figure there could be a movie that achieve what i find the second movie fail at be a fairly complex and character drive comic book adventure . the reason that the wolverine movie fails be not because the competition be tougher after the dark knight . it not even because of a plot development that be beyond obvious and rudimentary even though that certainly isn not good no and it because the movie doesn not even seem to try . to begin with and this do not qualify a good entertainment . there be something about the action in this movie that come off a so very and very automatic . with no great special effect or element of suspense and and when one event will make you predict the following five and it almost feel like an uwe boll movie and imitate an action or adventure movie concept that you have see a dozen time before . of course and nothing in this movie be a downright awful a a piece of bollst but when everybody talk clichés a if they be part of a chain of event that be so standard and you at least make the connection and that surely be bad enough . but there be an even big problem . even a generic action movie be a generic action movie and and by the way and that make you forgive a lot of plot hole and character stupidity . i think you find the most fundamental flaw in the very title . i mean and origin . really . what to the people behind this movie think about that title . what do they mean . you want to know the origin of wolverine . he grow up with his brother . they run away from home during dramatic circumstance . then they go off to war . all of them . the civil war and world war i and ii and vietnam too . why do they do this . still unknown . eventually and the brother ( sabertooth and play by liev shrieber ) become evil . how . you ask . i do not know and it be somewhere between omaha beach and hanoi . yeah and but why . you still ask . i just say i do not know . the movie doesn not explain . he evil alright . yeah and but . you know and origin . yeah and well that an origin . i mean and duh . anyway and eventually they end up with a super secret team of mutant elite soldier . something with the government and ho hum . wolvie get enough and leave his brother . for six year he a happy lumberjack with a loved one and who end up a little defenseless around the time sabretooth suddenly appear again . yeaaah . but . whyyyy . oh shut up . and wolvie decides to be a guinneapig for a bunch of evil scientist who make him a flesh cover metal war animal . he go after all the bad guy and they come after him and after all the fight he end up with his memory wipe and cue x men the first movie . there . that the origin . you can also find it on the back of the dvd cover . the actual movie would not tell you anything else . with no worthwhile scene of action and no good hero and villain or character in general ( line from my couch audience represent fat suit . token black guy . oh and i give you 200 in cash if that girl survive this movie . and that be suppose to be gambit . mmhm and yeah well . uh huh and right ) and not one line of memorable dialog and zero line to cover a t shirt with and add to that the common stupid thing that ruin the plausibility in general that you might usually forgive . well and that sound pretty much like a waste of time and right . fan will check this out and or have already . there no stopping that . but if you like the x men movie for no other reason than that they be well make and entertain see them again and do yourself no favor by try to look for origin where there be none .
