Wolverine's Big Surprises: Some Revealed
Some guy at Fox News said that Wolverine was online illegally and he made some comments about the movie.

I am, in fact, amazed about how great "Wolverine" turned out. It exceeds expectations at every turn. I was completely riveted to my desk chair in front of my computer.

Directed by Gavin Hood, the film is as cutting edge as it is old fashioned. This may be the big blockbuster film of 2009, and one we really need right now. It’s miles easier to understand than "The Dark Knight," and tremendously more emotional. Hood simply did an excellent job bringing Wolverine’s early life to the screen. Sounds like my cup of tea.

Hugh Jackman is Wolverine, of course, and he is more a movie star in this movie than ever before. It doesn’t hurt that he’s spent every waking minute in the gym. Hood doesn’t hide that. Jackman fans will get their fill of their hero. He’s joined by a phenomenal cast, too — Liev Schreiber as his evil but equally clawed brother, Victor, aka Sabretooth; Ryan Reynolds (he gets a lot of work, that’s for sure) as Deadpool; Dominic Monagan as Beak; Kevin Durand as the Blob; and the sensational sort of Han Solo-ish Taylor Kitsch as Gambit. There’s also sultry Lynn Collins as Wolverine’s love interest, and Danny Huston as the villainous Colonel Stryker.
Quote:
I do think the film works so beautifully because the screenplay is so streamlined. David Benioff (whose real name, I read, is David Friedman — he’s married to Amanda Peet) carefully delineated these characters and did a smashing job. I had less trouble following this story than the one in "Fireflies in the Garden." He’s made "Wolverine" just the right kind of summer entertainment — a thrill ride with lots of emotional investment and a hero simply bigger than life. That’s all you can ask for.
Interesting huh?
