Wolverine (12A)

This film is great if you love unbelieveable stunts and special effects. You know, just like your average, jumping into a helicopter from a car really. Of course, everyone can do that.

Obviously, Wolverine isn't just anyone. In this movie, you get to see how he becomes so strong. He begins as James Logan, a mutant who joins a team of other gifted beings. His decision to leave the group is not taken lightly. Six years later, the leader of the gang, Stryker, comes to tell Logan that someone is killing members of the team. Then his wife is killed by his mutant brother, Victor, and Logan seeks revenge. Sryker puts Loganthrough the Weapon X program, turning him into an unstoppable machine. His skeleton is transformed into a virtually indestructable metal. He is now Wolverine. However, all is not what is seems and Wolverine decides to track down the island where Stryker is experimenting on mutants and stop them. Let the action begin.

This is action film and it doesn't disappoint. If you are after lots of fighting, special effects and explosions, then you've picked the right film. It is enjoyable and the plot isn't that hard to follow either. There are a few plot holes that are noticeable and some parts are unbelievable. Such as, when a falling wall is coming down on Wolverine, another mutant, Gambit, just happens to be there at that exact moment. You just have to go with it rather than be realistic. Overall, I liked this film so I'll give it a 8/10
