When i first heard of this movie i thought it would be complete horrible shit. and as the movie was under production, more and more info was being released. at first i only knew the title and that Hugh jackman was obviously gonna be wolverine. wasn't very exiting. then i started to learn that deadpool (my fav. marvel character), the blob, and gambit were going to be in this. then i found out that ryan reynolds, one of my favorite actors, was playing deadpool , my favorite character. well, i just came all over myself by that point. i was so pumped for this movie. i found out it was online, and decided to watch it like almost every other fanboy. i was sorely disappointed, deadpool was in the movie for only ten minutes, i was furious. i kept watching for him to come back. like every other member of the secret task force in the beginning of the film. finally deadpool came back, which pissed me off even more. what they did to him was worse than having him in the movie for only ten minutes. i would have rather scene him for those ten glorious, beautiful minutes. than to have my favorite hero destroyed like that. I just wanted to get that out there. because whenever i talk to anyone about it they ask me who deadpool is.
Now to talk more about the movie, and not deadpool. the movie starts in 1840. with logan and victor as kids. there is some confusion with another man in their house. logan ends up stabbing the man who turns out to be his real father with his (bone) claws. him and victor than run away. then the opening credits start rolling which is kinda like watchmens opening, except this is scenes of them through all the war (civil war, world war I and II, and then Vietnam) they get booted from the army. than general stryker recruits them for his black ops team. Logan leaves because he hates the things they are doing.
Logan is now in Canada with his girlfriend, trying to live a normal life. But he's a mutant so hes not allowed to have a normal life. victor comes back and kills his girlfriend. Logan then swears that he will get his revenge. and that is what the rest of the movie is about.
the plot seams really basic, it is. don't go expecting a serious, dark drama. this is a summer blockbuster. meaning Action injected with a mixture of adrenaline and steroids. they are all great actors but it doesn't come across in this movie, their inst enough dialogue for it to. most of the big interactions consist of a few growls and snarls and then end in a giant fight.
i did enjoy this movie, because it was an action movie injected with the lethal mixture of roids. sometimes thats all that's necessary from a superhero movie. this movie is worth going to if you want to see an awesome ass kicking superhero movie. its kinda a disappointment to fanboys. well your gonna see it anyway if your a fanboy.
let me state again. this movie is just average. not good, but definitely not the worst movie ever. the plot is weak, and the acting is bad, but its good for an action movie. besides, there are much worse comic movies.
I havent played the game yet but, i hear that its pretty good.
P.S. i actually saw this in theaters as well as online, dont say any shit about me illegally watching it.
on second thought i would just watch the unrendered version online, save the eight dollars for something else.
