It's been a while since I've slayed a movie, and honestly I really, really wanted to love this one. For a couple of hours I thought I did, but I guess it was just the company more than anything. Left to my own devices I started thinking about it and decided it's off with the critter. The following is spoilerrific, just to prove that I can kill this 2 hours of entertainment in 15 short points or less...
- Hi, I'm Jimmy, future Logan and this is my brother Victor. I went all crazy and killed my dad...run guys, run, run through the opening credits (which are quite cool to be honest, perhaps the best thing about it all... someone watched the Watchmen, I guess)
- These are our friends, their names are not important. Pay attention to Ryan Reynolds, he is the funny one with a bit of dialogue.
- It's me Jimmy again. I just gave up this army business, changed my name to Logan and became an axe man. yes and axe man... the one nerd in the audience laughed, because it sort of sound like X-man.
- I'm in love with a girl that might or might not love me, but it's OK, Victor killed her and now I'm all pissed and want adamantium infused bones.
- Running naked through the woods, yes I'm running and naked until I find Superman's parents, farm and all and they give me a bike and a leather jacket.
- Trying to get to Vic I meet Gambit in New Orleans which is the second coolest scene in this movie after the opening credits. gambit fangirls/boys rejoice.
- I get to the place I need to find ,free the captives, fall out of love, fight Ryan Reynolds, get close with Vic. Kill Ryan Reynolds.
- Now I hate Vic again, but for a little while because, bang I've lost my memory. I don't remember meeting a teenage cyclops nor did he really got to see me, so it's alright we'll hate each others guts in the future.
- Where am I, what the heck, did I just forget it all ... I guess I did. Heigh- Ho off to Canadian Wilderness we go...
Nine bullets, darn that is a record. The intent was there and Jackman played it with his heart. Liev Schreiber was really good too, but Fox dropped the ball once again. This time the culprit is the dialogue and that need to make it rain mutants everywhere. There is no need for a cast of thousands, specially when you will say absolutely nothing about it. They gave the impression that this one would be of epic scale and it was so condensed, it bordered on choppy editing. I can only wait this thing is reverted to Marvel ... but one can only wish.
The quote: "No one kills you but ME!!!!"- Victor to Logan in the weirdest expression of brotherly love, ever.
