I just saw X-Men Origins: Wolverine and was thoroughly disappointed! I don't even know where to begin on how terrible this movie was, but I think I will begin with the special effects. One scene in particular that sticks out was when Wolverine was standing in the the mirror admiring his new claws. His claws looked like they had come from a cartoon. It was almost as if during editing they completely forgot to go back and fix them.
The writing was also not that great. I thought that they story was just OK. It was nothing special and I found some parts to be comical that weren't supposed to be. I did, however, think the acting was OK (except for Will i. am). Hugh Jackman did an awesome job once again playing Wolverine. He made his character very believable. I also thought that Liev Schreiber was a good Sabretooth. His character was very intense!
Overall, the movie was very lackluster! I suggest skipping this movie and renting it when it comes out!
I also commented on a professional blog. My comment can be seen here. I suggest that you all read the article I commented on; it was very interesting! It was about a class being offered at West Virginia State University focused on facebook.

Wow I can't believe it was a bomb! My boyfriend loves that movie and made me watch most of the original with him last week. I thought it was pretty good but don't really really get into that kind of movie. Haha, I like your word lackluster! Oh well, too bad, thanks for the review info!
ReplyDeleteOh man...mixed reviews...I was told by several people that this movie rocked. I don't get into that type of movie, but maybe I should go see it and find out for myself. Cause I hate it when one person says a movie was good and other says it was stinky. Oh I'm so torn...to see this movie or to not...that is the question.
ReplyDeleteMatt, I saw the movie yesterday as well and I don't know how I feel about it. I mean it was cool to get Wolverine's back story, but I agree that the writing and special effects were definitely bad. I don't regret seeing it though, it just made me want to watch the first three again, which I did today haha!
ReplyDeleteMatt.. They destroyed Deadpool! David Benioff is terrible! When I was like... five, Deadpool was my all time favorite character, haha, but... I've never seen a character as butchered as Deadpool. And they had Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool. Perfect. But guess what? They sealed his mouth shut. Argh. And what's worse, Benioff is writing Winter is Coming for HBO, based off one of my favorite books...
