The long awaited Woverine pre-quel finally hit theatres. Here is my bullet-point review:
Why didn't the Director take more time to delve into the family dynamic? Someone uttering "my son" with bone claws in his gut doesn't exactly explain a lot of things.
- Loved the show of 'brotherhood', fighting side by side, war after war. Always have each other's back. But did they have to say "back to back' all the time? After all these years you'd think they'd know it?
- Where was Wolverine's berserker rage? He was too calm and collected most of the time.
- Somehow I thought that bonding an indestructible metal to your bones would have been alot more painful. He seemed to handle it ok. Did anyone believe for a second he'd actually die? C'mon man. You have to better than that dude.
- Cool claws. (ooooo shiny)
- Liev Schreiber was very convincing as Sabretooth. This guy needs his own movie.
- Ryan Reynolds was absolutely superb as Wade Wilson. As I knew he would be.
- The Director screwed up the Deadpool character though. He was not a genepool of stolen mutant abilities. He was an assassin of the highest order coupled with a healing factor and 'deadpan' humour. He earned his name by surviving a prison stay where the inmates ran a deadpool on who would be the next to die.
- The Professor X appearance was weak. Not even a hint of suspense. Corny if you ask me.
- Very forgetable. Fit for TMN. Not the big screen
