X-Men Origins: Wolverine ROUGH CUT

This review is based on the rough cut of the film. The Production team still has until late April to fix this film. This is not a review on the final product! This is a review of the film in its unpolished form.

PROS: Hugh Jackman's performance which carry's the entire movie. The fight scenes between Wolverine and Sabretooth are brutal. The fight scene between Wade/Deadpool/Weapon XI, is actually better then the fights between Sabretooth and Wolverine. It's an X-men movie and it's better than the X-Men the Last Stand (the 3rd X-men movie) It's worth checking out if you've got nothing else to do.

CONS: Does not have an Epic feel at all. I mentioned that the fight scenes between Sabretooth and Wolverine are brutal, but some people may find them too one sided at times. Either Sabretooth just demolishes Wolverine, or Wolverine just destroys Sabretooth. Other Actor's performances are bland. Clunky editing, and terrible pacing. Camera direction for dramatic sequences feels like bad TV, like a bad episode of Grey's Anatomy. Victor's reason for betraying Jim is incredibly dull, not thought out well, and in the end really pathetic and dumb. Without a good reason we cannot care about the story... The film is supposed to take place over a hundred years, and through vast amounts of countries and states, yet the scope feels very small and dull despite all this.
More CONS
SPOILER!: We don't get enough time with Jim and Kayla, when she dies, we feel bad for Jim, but not as much as we should. Other Mutant characters feel very shallow, and unpronounced, we get to see Gambit and Cyclops but their moments are forgotten quickly. I know this is supposed to be Wolverine's movie, but if he meets these other mutants, then it should be meaningful, not just filler.
SPOILER!:
Why does Logan in the X-Men movie; which takes place after Origins, why does he not have memories of finding Kayla's body, and of Gambit helping him off the 3 Mile Island? In X-Men he only has flashes of escaping 3-Mile Island after his adamention procedure. He should still have memories of Kayla's body and Gambit...

Overall/Final Notes: It's decent, not great (like it should have been), I am not basing my opinion off of the trailers, I do not like buying into hype so that way I don't create a biased review. This movie is good, it is not great. Considering how much money, time, and effort that has been put in this movie, I would expect it to be better. The Production team still has a few weeks to fix many problematic sequences in this film, so it is VERY LIKELY!!! That the final product would be better than what has been seen thus far. Hugh Jackman does however portray Wolverine in a very charismatic and heroic manner, and despite his charisma he still ends up becoming the "everyman" by conveying the mentality of someone who has lost everything and seeks revenge, which makes him highly relatable and a lot fun to watch when he's kicking ass.

In the end: I would go see this film once it is released.
