X-MEN Origins Wolverine a Smash!
I was fortunate enough last night to go to a viewing for the upcoming X-Men Origins Wolverine movie which is to be released in cinemas 1st May 2009. Well it was not a viewing like you may be thinking with movie stars and the red carpet, it was really like watching the pre-release director's version amongst friends. And I gotta say, "It rocked!"
Since I was a little boy Wolverine has been my favourite X-Men character. He was the one I would pretend I was. He was the one I felt more alike. He was the one I looked up to in awe and he was the one who is shrouded in mystery... at least he was...
I am an avid fan of The X-Men especially Wolverine, and because of that I am able to say that this movie delivered the punch Stan Lee and MARVEL intended providing the answers to many questions the majority of the world's population had.
X-Men Origins Wolverine movie is set in the past before there were any X-Men. The movie starts when Login (Wolverine) was just a little boy and continues through his life giving the background story to his character.
When the end of the movie came I was unprepared. I did not expect the movie to end when it did. I thought that there was more to tell, and there is, it's just not in this particular movie. Perhaps there is to be an X-Men Origins: Wolverine II in the future, because as I said, the story continues on.
Apparently the next scheduled release in the X-Men Origins series is to be on Magneto.

I give X-MEN Origins: Wolverine a 8 out of 10.
