...and it really wasn't that good. There was a lot of stunning work with animation, wires and the film itself, but the story wasn't that great. I love movies that are based on comics...lately they are about the freshest concept in the movies, and for a good one I'm prepared to sit for up to three hours, which this film could have easily done, but they crammed too much stuff into just an hour forty five. For example: Jackman spends just about 7-10 minutes on screen with the other mutants in the movie when they are on their task force and later they show up and act like they've been friends for 20 years and you got no character development behind them at all. A serious backstory involving Gambit is allured to, but never revealed. There's like 3 dozen other serious name mutants in the movie that are never formally presented. This wasn't a great story of Wolverine's past...it was more about an event that he was trying to stop. Let's put it this way...I would compare it to Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. All it's really good for is tying a couple of loose ends and some cool visuals.
