X-men Origins: Wolverine - Blu-ray
AndyO review: * * *
I'm a sucker for the X-men movies. Compared to The Fantastic Four, X-men films seem like they should be Oscar winners. Recently, I watched the first three X-men films with my son Cameron, and thought they held up pretty well.
While I expected Wolverine to be sub-par, based on the reviews I saw, I actually found it pretty interesting. Especially interesting was the beginning, which showed that Wolverine already had a special gift (as did his brother) before he got the metal claws. He could heal spontaneously; he was immortal. We watch scenes of both brothers fighting in practically every war since they existed.
We also see what drove Wolverine to go from mere immortal to a certified killing machine.
Definitely worth seeing if you like comic book films or Hugh Jackman.
