Wolverine

Well, it was OK. Not as good as the original X-men films of course, but OK.

The problem is that the origin story of Wolverine isn't really about Wolverine; it's about Colonel Stryker - and what he did to Wolverine. In making this prequel, the film makers obliged themselves to cast a younger actor (Danny Huston) for the part of Stryker and set themselves (and poor Mr Huston) an impossible task; matching up to Brian Cox's magnificent performance as Stryker in X-men 2.

Huston makes a decent fist of the role - but sometimes, the bar is just set too high.
