While I can't explain why young Wolvy was sickly I may have an explanation with regards to Supe's kid. A co-worker, who is fanatical about Superman, tells me that the pills the boy takes are made of the same elements as kryptonite. He says that if you look closely at the medicine, then compare it to the kryptonite plaque in the museum, that they are virtually identical. So this means Lois was intentionally dosing her son to keep his abilities from manifesting. It wasn't until he was kept away from his "medicine" that his power was unleased. Just in the nick of time of course.

Well, at least you recognize how thin and one-note the character is by nature.

Hey, hey! Careful there, I like Gambit! I think there is a lot of dimension to his character, but there was no context given here. A large part of what makes Gambit interesting is his relationship with Rogue and the mistrust others feel for him due to his thieving past. Well, and his sexy Cajun accent. They should have skipped Gambit rather than do it half-assed.

Zeek...........

I haven't seen it but if your review is that none of the X-men movies have sucked then we're just not seeing eye to eye. Did you see the third movie? It was a giant suckfest. It's like the writers had a challenge to find a way to make the next scene suck harder then the one before it. It was like exponential suck growth. Honestly I tried to rewatch it on cable just recently and I can't even have it on while I'm doing other things. It just sucks so much. OK I think I'm better now.

I'm with you on this one....X-3 Suxville, Suckington, KY population X-3. It got 36% on the Tomatometer - Rotten Tomatoes website. Not good by any measurement.

Late replying to this one . . . just saw it yesterday and that only because my son BEGGED me to take him. He thought it was awesome. Me? Not so much.

It was lacking something and I just can't seem to put my finger on it. The story was decent enough, the story was all right. Just no UMPH!

I just wonder how anyone could screw up a movie with Wolverine being the main character???
It wasn't horrible, but it's not remotely good.
For every good Marvel super hero movie, there are 3 more waiting to tarnish that image.

MEH!

If anything, though, I think it's Sony's fault. Aren't they the one's who currently hold the liscence on everything X-Men? Things released from the Marvel Studios have been outstanding. Sony . . . not so much.

Wow, I have to say I'm a bit shocked...I thought it was awful.

It's 100 mins of watching Hugh scream and then maneuver into position for one of the 1000 "money shot" images. I disliked what they did to Deadpool (who was a cool enough character in his own right...why did they need to make him crazy-knife-arm guy? Just make a new damned enemy...you don't ALways have to use a name from the comics). The action was decent, but Hugh's strength (and what makes him so good in the fairly weak X2 and X3) is ACTING...not screaming and riding motorcycles...

OH and the motorcycle thing just pissed me off. A barn, on a working farm, with virtually NOTHING in it but this SHINY MOTORCYCLE...just way too obvious for my tastes.

also, the adamantium bullet wiping memory...ok I can buy that, but the bad guys KNOWING it's going to wipe memory beforehand? How?

All in all I thought it was an incredibly weak film...by far the worst thing I've ever seen Jackman do. I'd say even the 3 X-Men films, with all their warts, were better.

Nope.

The only Marvel properties Sony controls are Spider-Man and Ghost Rider.

FOX controls X-Men and Wolverine, Fantastic 4, Daredevil and Elektra.
