X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)

This is a good blockbuster but some of the story felt weird. The thing that killed this movie was Deadpool. If you wanted a Weapon XI character as the final boss…fine! But don’t do Deadpool dirty like that. You pulled a Galactus and made it have semblance to the comic character but F**K. That was an abomination and should not have had a deadpool twist. I liked the rest though. Just screw Deadpool in this movie and your BS teaser that he is alive. Logan is great though. His brother is interesting and fleshed out while raising some continuity issues. It had potential thanks to Jackman giving it his all as usual. It just needed to build up to something better.
