X-Men Origins: Wolverine
X-Men Origins: Wolverine is one of the first flashy movies of the summer. Did it open up and achieve the greatness that everyone expects it to be. As far as some movie goers go some may have liked it, But did the comic fans like it? Did the movie contradict itself like many expected it to? Would the movie follow the other movies, considering this movie is set on the time of wolverine and his prime was before he joined Professor Xavier and his elite crew of mutants.The Movie starts off with Wolverine (Logan) extremely Ill at his house. As he lay’s in bed, His dad checks on him as Sabretooth (Victor) Sits and watches. There dad checks on him and as that is happening someone calls for the His dad. As he steps down Wolverine hears a gunshot so he rushes down stairs and finds his dad dead. So he goes crazy and his claws come out (Wolverine not knowing he has this ability) and kills the man, and the man’s last words were, “He wasn’t your real father, I was” WOLVERINE KILLS HIS DAD!!
As the Movie goes along they show some Clips of Wolverine and his brother Sabretooth raising hell in the Wars, from the Civil War, WWI, WWII, Vietnam etc… and that leaves them to Striker. In present time the mad meets Striker (Striker was the man from X-2 with the son with the same powers as the professor). So apparently Striker has this group that is made for the service of the United States, some super group of mutants (John Wraith, The Blob, Bolt, Agent Zero, Deadpool) and Spriker wants Sabretooth and Wolverine to join this group, so they do.
This leads Wolverine to leave, just because he didn’t want to fight no more and he thought what they were doing was wrong. So he leaves and moves to Canada, Were he now has a cabin, he is a lumberjack and on top of that he has a girl friend named Kayla. Kayla is the one who sets his name Wolverine. Reason being is she tells him this story, about how the moon is lonely and the reason why is… well some stupid reason some spirit falls for the moon and some other spirit tells the other spirit to go down to earth to get some flowers for the moon and so the spirit that loves the moon goes to get the flowers and he dies, the spirit that was stupid enough to go get the flowers his name was Wolverine translated. And that is the Origins of the name Wolverine.
Since Wolverine Was gone Sabretooth went on a blood hunt for wolverine. Striker tried to get Wolverine back to defeat Sabretooth, but Wolverine said he wasn’t interested. Next thing you know Sabretooth Kill’s his wife… The bait worked and Wolverine went looking for Sabretooth. As they meet Wolverine fights him and at the end he loses his bone claws. Then Striker says hey I can make you better and I can fix you, just come with me. Well he does and that is how he gets his metal claws over those stupid bone claws.
After the surgery was a success, they tell them to erase his memory and wolverine hears and he freaks out and goes on a rampage. As he escapes he meets up with these people who give him food and shelter, and that cool leather jacket he wears. As he gets comfortable he stays there and as he is there Agent Zero kills the old people and then the barn blows up. When it does Wolverine takes off in his Cycle that the old man gave him. Then the helicopter battle begins. In the end wolverine blows up the helicopter, killing agent zero.
Once Wolverine demolished everything he goes to meet up with some old members of the team. He meets up with The Blob and John Wraith. John Wraith explains how Sabretooth lost his mind and went crazy and got blood thirsty. John Wraith tells Wolverine to talk to The Blob for more information. The Blob knows what is going on, were Victor is. But he doesn’t want to tell him anything. So they begin to fight in the ring. Well as you figure The Blob Wins… Kidding Wolverine smashes him because wolverine is made of steel metal now. So The Blob tells Wolverine were victor is, and how Sabretooth and Striker are on a team and they are killing all the mutants. And how they put all the mutants on an island, The Blob leads him to Gambit, due to he is the only person who has ever escaped the island and truly knows what happens on the island. Wolverine feels betrayed due to the fact that Striker said that Wolverine and himself will hunt down Sabretooth. So Wolverine leaves and John Wraith insists to follow.
Scene change: Sabretooth captures Cyclops. And Striker takes him in. Sabretooth stays. Gambit ends up attacking Wolverine because Wolverine says the name Striker. Then Wolverine meets Sabretooth in the ally. And you end up finding out that Sabretooth killed John Wraith, and his wife. While they are fighting, Gambit comes out and starts to attack Wolverine. So Sabretooth leaves.
After all that Gambit stops and then Wolverine talks to him about his situation. Gambit tells him he can take him to the island. Then end up talking about why Striker hates mutants so much. Reason being is the fact that his son killed Strikers wife. His son was a mutant hence on X-Men 2. So Gambit takes him to the island and Wolverine jumps in the water.
Mess UP!
Wolverine when he dove in the water he comes out of the water with no water drops on him and he isn’t even wet. Also if Wolverine were to jump in the water he would have sunk. Considering he is made of metal.Last Thoughts
It was a good movie, Funny, Action packed and we got these sweet comics. Hugh Jackman did a great job and so did the other cast men, But I did find that it was to full with like starts, and some didn’t really fit the part to well.So what happens to Wolverine, And all the other mutants? How about Cyclops, Why does Wolverine hate him In the original X-Men?
Okay well That is all I’m going to tell you my good friend. Enjoy It! The rest you must see on your own!!!
