X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Point I Fell Asleep: 1:15 out of 1:47 (70%)
Location: Home
Time I Started Movie: Primetime
IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0458525/

Leg 2 of my "terrible movies I need to catch up on." I was expecting this one to suck as bad as "Fast and Furious" since that's what Peter had told me. However, it really wasn't THAT aweful. I guess the key is to have really really low expectations. Some things that went through my head when I was watching the movie:
  • What is Ryan Reynolds doing in this movie? He's such a stud. However, he's not as ripped as he was in "Blade Trinity."
  • Why is Will.i.am in this movie? What? Was Tyrese busy?
  • Those "bone" claws look realistic. Isn't he supposed to have metal claws? [fast forward]. Ugh...those metal claws look too fake.
  • Holy shit! Hugh Jackman is RIPPED! I wonder if actors use steroids to bulk up like this for movies?
  • Which X-Men character is that?

So, I'd say the first half to even 3/4 of the movie was "decent." Then the shit hit the fan at the end. The ending was terrible and left a bad taste in my mouth. Rent the movie if you're really desperate, but pass if you have better things to do with your time. Next stop - "Chun Li the movie."
