The Wolverine

It's about time Wolverine got his own stand-alone movie (yeah were just going to ignore that other turd of a film). So anyone that likes Wolverine, the X-men, super heroes, or just awesome summer blockbusters will appreciate this film. The film had pretty good dialogue and interactions between the characters, the fight scenes were spectacular, and the special effects were great. 

Here's a brief synopsis if you're not already familiar: 
Taking place a few years after X-men: The Last Stand, Logan (a.k.a. Wolverine) is now living as a hermit, tormented every night by nightmares of him having to kill his love, Jean Grey. He feels that his life has no purpose and that he must suffer for an eternity. Until he is confronted by a katana-toting girl from Japan who tells Logan that her employer wants him to come see him. Her employer, a dying old man named Yoshida was once a Japanese soldier during World War II. Logan, being immortal happened to be in Japan when the bomb was dropped on Nagasaki and saved this soldier. Now Wolverine gets caught up in a war between the Japanese mob and ninja's protecting Yoshida's family.

I really enjoyed this movie. We finally got to see some well deserved justice brought to the Wolverine character on the big screen. Hugh Jackman always gets better, and better each time he reprises this role.
Although I really enjoyed this movie, there were a couple downfalls. I thought that this was probably one of the most violent superhero film's I've seen in a while. There is a decent amount of cursing as well. I would keep the younger viewers away from this film. Normally I would say a superhero rated PG-13 is okay for all viewers, but this one of the rare ones that I wouldn't recommend to anyone under the age of 13. However, this heavy rating did not weigh it down in the least bit:

Film Rating: 8.5/10
