Missed the opening scene of Wolverine because Dad and I ran a little late getting there. Also, the theater was PAAAAAAACKED. Which you might think a little strange for a Monday night, but, Mondays are 5 dollah movie day @ Shaker Square so...
Dad and I had to sit front row. @_@ I imagine the movie's a little more.... manageable from a distance.
Good opening sequence with the wars! Done very well! And then with the team moving through the building and killing people. I enjoy looking at Ryan Reynolds, even when his characters piss. me off. Deadpool was JUST the right amount of 'fuck you very much' and 'oh well THIS is funny'. At least, I think so.
As much as I liked the LOOK of 'Agent Zero', I seem to remember him being done differently (and, uh, better) in the comics. IDK, I'll have to wiki it later. It's been a while. (Damn Marvel for shutting down s_d)
Now, after all the opening is done, I will tell you what makes this movie.
a) Half naked Hugh Jackman breathing in the cold Canadian air
b) Lumberjack Hugh Jackman
c) Naked Hugh Jackman snuggle times
...or at least, that's what makes the movie up until Victor/Sabretooth shows up and kicks Wolverine's ass. Stryker shows up, blah blah blah, adamantium, blah blah blah, Stryker is a royal jerk off, blah blah blah... Wolverine kills people. :D A... lot of people. And kind of fucks up and explodes a helicopter WHICH was fun.
And then goes to see his old friends, fights the Blob (who, well, yeah, it's the Blob) TRACKS DOWN GAMBIT (who. UNF.) who fights him with a pimp cane (no shit people).
We have, somewhere in there, a scene of Scott getting kidnapped (uuuuuuuuunf, god, I have such a fetish.)
And I spent the rest of the movie trying to figure out if anyone would write me a Logan/Gambit/Scott threesome.
...not li-. Well, yes. I did.
Anyway.
Wolverine kicks ass, Deadpo- 'scuse me, Wade Wilson ends up dead. (Well, his head is cut off, but I'm pretty sure that Wade can get better.) Logan gets shot in the head and loses his memory. (Still not sure how that one works.) Oh, and Scott goes off to live with Professor X. :D Happy endings.
There were a few things I'm nitpicky about. The level of technology they showed us was... far too advanced. Far too advanced. Granted, someone could go 'NUH UH SEE THEY HAD THIS STU-' but. Honestly. Things just looked too hightech for the time period.
The clothing SEEMED about right, but considering that a) Wolverine was naked, b) the guys were in fatigues, c) or were lunberjacks, d) or wore black. I'd say the clothing seemed time wise appropriate, but we didn't see a lot of civilians. And heroes clothing NEVER goes out of style. (Black and yellow spandex aside.) As much as I enjoyed Scott and Remy appearing, they were a bit of a non sequitur in this Logan-centric movie. If they'd had more screen time, maybe it would have made more sense, but... Although Scott did lead the other mutants to safety, but we didn't need to see him getting kidnapped for that scene to make sense.
All in all, good movie, great summer blockbuster. Lots of hot men, lots of naked Hugh Jackman.
