Don't get me wrong. The actual movie is great. Once again, Hugh Jackman's portrayal of Wolverine is top-notch and there are a lot more awesome battle scenes than the original, so really my only complaint is the convulsive, hard-to-follow plot. It was pretty easy to understand in the first half hour, but after that it's nothing but a mind-puzzle that's pretty much impossible to solve. The whole cerebrum part made no sense to me, as well as a few other things. Definetly will have to watch again to understand the plot better, but other than that, the movie's not half bad. Would seriously recommend it to a Marvel fan, especially an X- Men fan. Would have given it 5 stars if I understood the plot.

This was, I think, the best of the original trilogy, but that's not exactly saying much. What was the point of having Sabertooth and Toad in the first one; we barely see them. In this one the storyline is a bit stronger, but it's stretched much too long. Would have been just as good - perhaps even better - if it were just under 2hrs.

Not as good as the first, much better than the third. I would have preferred a story that followed the comics better; nothing a solid reboot can't fix.
