Richard Roper’s X-Men Origins – Wolverine Review: 2/5 Stars

“Wolverine” might have been a more satisfying superhero escapist adventure if the bar hadn’t been raised in recent years by the Spidey franchise, “Iron Man,” “The Dark Knight” and even the Edward Norton “Hulk” movie, among others.

Now, it just seems uninspired and predictable. The CGI effects are pretty cool, Hugh Jackman’s a bona fide movie star and we get a couple of exciting fight scenes, but so what? This does not feel like a franchise film. The first two “X-Men” movies managed to give us more depth and character development even while painting on a much broader canvas. Now we’re focusing mainly on just the one X-Man in the making, yet the story seems thinner. We don’t know much more about Wolverine than we what already gleaned from the “X-Men” films.

Maybe the problem is Wolverine himself. Sure, he’s built like he spends half his time guzzling protein shakes and working out, and he’s got those slice ‘em and dice ‘em claws that shoot out of his forearms, but if he shows up at Superhero Convention and compares his powers to those of Superman or the Hulk or even most of the other X-Men (and X-Women), they’re likely to say, “Oooh, nice effect. Can you open my can of beer with those?”

Eminem – 3 A.M. Trailer

I am going to co-sign a commenter’s sentiments to this video: it must be nice to have big budgets to make over the top horror movie styled videos for very mediocre songs.
