Default X-Men Origins: Wolverine on RT (Update: 38% now)

Maybe that would shut up all of you naysayers.

LOL I doubt this really means anything, just like the 100% for ST doesn't mean anything. Going to see it either way, just not sure when.

I hardly think 5 reviews is enough to judge the movie. Let's wait until Wednesday/Thursday when most critics have weighed in to judge the film. I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just saying it's too soon based on a small sample size.

Not saying this will be a bad movie but RT, thats how many gave it a positive review. if you look at their average, they say 7.2. As another person said, its still too early to tell. Will be going to see it though.

If this manages to stay at 85% or above, I'll be impressed and shut up for you. I have yet to see the leaked version, so I am going into this thing with an open mind. We shall see how well I like it.

Anything above 70% on RT (for a comic book movie) is outstanding. Just doing my share to create some positive buzz .

lol.. ok.. 5 reviews and 2 of them are from guys that live or work for australian newspapers/websites. I want to see this and will, but 100% based on 5 reviews is hardly anything to get excited about.

More than once I have read that Wolverine "is better than X-men 3, but not as good as the first 2 X flicks" I'm more inclined to believe that's gonna be the actual case more often than not.

I don't think you can jusge a film untill you've seen it with its score, and for this kind of film the completed visual effects are a must. Without that all the flaw become all to apparent (imaging watching Indiana Jones 2 without the complete fx shots and the planet of the apes score). It wouldn't work to well now would it. That bieng said I don't think this film will impress me.

yeah, the % is not the important number. I always look at the overall rating.

7.2/10 so far, which is not very good, considering there are only a smattering of reviews posted so far. When the floodgates open, that number is bound to decrease.

but all that is irrelevant, of course. The only opinion that matters is your own, right?

RT? A review site?
I tend to take *ANY* review with a grain of salt. YMMV.
