I think I agree with everything posted here besides for liking Will.i.am as I thought he was hilariously out of place in every single scene. I don't think i've been that disappointed by a film in a long time. One thing which especially pissed me off was how they faked Wolverine's wfie's death. In the flash back, is says they just used some kind of chemical and then Sabretooth is shown basically spraying her with blood. Now, Wolverine has been in fucking wars and has all his animal sense and yet he doesn't even detect the blood is fake and there isn't a single wound on her body? It makes Logan seem like the stupidest person ever.

"This will be presented in bullet form, and hopefully I can keep things short and concise:

• Awesome trailer for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
• Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool

That's about it.  Now, in all seriousness, another set of bulleted stuff to point out why this movie is not only a travesty, but it's a fucking injustice!

• Wolverine and Sabretooth are brothers.  This is absolute horseshit.  Even then...the way they go about this at the beginning of the movie is an even bigger load of horseshit.
• Silver Fox's role in things:  completely overplayed and overdone.
• Deadpool:  Ryan Reynolds was perfect for the role...and he's only in the movie for a total of 5-7 fucking minutes!!!  It's a goddamn shame!!!  Well, take that back - he happens to be Weapon XI, who is the big fight sequence at the end.
• Weapon XI:  Deadpool should NOT be Weapon XI!!!  NO!!!  Since they cut out all of Wolverine's Japan origins (but see the Easter Egg endings bullet for a little tip), he never had a wife and son apparently.  His son, Daken, is turned into Weapon XI.  To top it off...there was no Muramasa blade mentioned (which is the only blade that can decapitate and "kill" Wolverine).  Instead, they just lead you to believe that adamantium can go through adamantium.
• Wolverine has his memories erased by being shot twice in the head with adamantium bullets.
• Gambit:  *ugh*  While my friend was going ga-ga over him, I couldn't help but sit there and say "why does he sound like a retard trying to do a southern accent?".  That's when I realized that it was a lame attempt at a Cajun accent.  My friend then got thoroughly pissed by the end of the movie because he never said "au cher", his catch phrase.  She threatened to burn the theatre to the ground because of it.  This is on top of the fact that the movie makes it look like Wolverine and Gambit knew each other at least decently before he loses his memory.
• Weapon X Facility:  First off, no...it wasn't at Alkali Lake.  That really cheesed me off.  Here's what makes it worse:  this movie makes it out like Stryker had, at some point, captured most of the X-Men (Cyclops, Nightcrawler, Iceman, etc) when they were children to fuse all of their powers to Weapon XI.  That's not all, because it gets worse than that:  Professor X shows up after Emma Frost escorts them out of the base so he can take them all to the Academy.  *ugh*  What a headache...
• The Easter Egg endings:  The one that I saw was Stryker walking down the road after Silver Fox told him to walk until his feet bled...and then keep walking.  It was lame as shit.  The other ones include:  Weapon XI finding his decapitated head through the rubble and making a hushing sound at the audience, and Wolverine drinking in a bar in Japan.  Now, the first one was just dumb.  The second one...eh.  The third one leads me to believe that they are trying to acknowledge Wolverine's time in Japan...but regardless, they already fucked up the order of things.
• Spectre:  Will.I.Am was great in the role.  Problem is, they didn't offer much development for him.
• The Blob:  The dood that played him was hilarious and excellent for the part...but again, underdeveloped.
• I understand that this movie is called WOLVERINE...but don't underdevelop those two characters when they are shining.

Now that I'm done ripping apart only a handful of the massive inaccuracies that destroy the story - HOW WAS THE M-O-V-I-E?  Well, not much better.

• The CGI was HORRIBLE!  There's one part where Wolverine is in a bathroom with his claws, and they looked TERRIBLE!  They actually looked better in the FIRST movie!!!
• So many movie cliches, cheesy dialogue, and poor acting quality from most actors.  Given that Ryan Reynolds is no stranger to comic movies, as well as a proclaimed hardcore Deadpool fan, he did a great job of keeping the sarcasm and humor dry as Hell.  Great job, and it makes me hope they'll forego the bullshit with Weapon XI and just make a Deadpool movie.  Nonetheless, outside of the guy that played The Blob and Will.I.Am, everything was swirling down the drain.  I blame the script more than anything, because even Danny Huston...who is a SUPERB actor (see 30 Days of Night)...was just wretched in the role.
• The action sequences looked well-orchestrated and choreographed, but the editing was atrocious!!!  Too much quick cutting leading into unnecessary expositions leading into quick cutting nonsense.
• The dramatic scenes stunk to high Heaven with overacting.  I've seen better drama on General Hospital, and that's nothing BUT overacting!!!  At one point, Wolverine pulls out a roar while holding Silver Fox in his arms that you saw Brando do better in Streetcar.  It was horrific.  Simply horrific.
• The story - outside of all inaccuracies - could've worked well for the flick.  The problem is that things started off kind of smooth and moving along, but eventually, everything goes completely batshit nuts out the wazoo.  This eventually leads into too many plot twists at once, and in the earlier stages, characters being completely forgettable (I shit you not, I JUST remembered Dominic Monaghan being in the movie while I was writing this bullet out!).

Overall, the movie...just...flat-out...sucks.  It's no good.  It's washed-up.  X-Men III: The Last Stand deserves a goddamn Oscar compared to this filth.  I've never been a fan of Wolverine personally (as I consider him one of the two worst superheroes ever, only being outdone by the legendary cop-out named Superman).  Nonetheless, I somehow feel bad for him right now.  Dare I say it?  Yeah, I think I need to:

Maybe Uwe Boll could've done a better job.

I agree with most of points you've made, but then again it's Hollywood so I was expecting fragments in the character development. Everything you ever knew about the marvel characters involved in this movie was destined to be turned upside down. It's a shame I know. Positives for me were some cool fight scenes and the beginning credits walktrhough.

I remember the Origin series.  I have them sitting on my bookshelf at home.

Sounds like a good review. My nephew just saw it yesterday and said. "Wait until it's free."

After seeing one of the trailers for this film a few weeks ago where it name-dropped a lot of the leading and side characters in it. I got the impression they really just thought "Ok, lets put as many well known Xmen / Mutant characters into this film as possible and not care about continuity or any form of logical progression".

The story seemed bad. Even as a film, ignoring the fact it is based on a mass of comic book lore, its story was not good. General feeling seemed to be as I mentioned above they wanted to include far too many well known characters but didn't know how to combine them all to the plot in a logical format. It just felt like a roller coaster as things went up and down and up and down again. Just as you thought it was picking up it would suddenly drop to even lower depths.

SPOILERS BELOW! SPOILERS BELOW!

"O . O  I hadn't heard about that ending yet.  Are you for reals?  I knew about the one where the head was on the ground and they break the fourth wall, which is typical of Deadpool comics.  However, the one you mention would mean that Weapon XI could've very well been either a clone or it could've been Stryker's son."

Well, I'm trying to hunt them down online, but from what I'm hearing, the Stryker thing is actually on the work print of the film...which means EVERYONE will see that.  The real ending, apparently...I missed.  You have to go ALL THE WAY through the credits for the secret ending (ala Iron Man).

The yelling at the sky is what did it for me. After the first incident I knew the movie would be atrocious, but I did like Liev Schreiber's portrayel of Sabretooth. I thought he got that part across fairly well....

You know...to be fully honest. The whole reason I DON'T want to see the movie is BECAUSE Ryan Renolds is Deadpool. Just can't picture it. Unless he has the mask on the entire time, which I doubt he even has a mask on in the first place. The thought still bugs me.

I also want a deadpool movie, cause he's my favorite comicbook guy.

Well, it was the same guy who did the extremely terrible and disappointing X-Men 3, so hearing that Wolverine is garbage is unsurprising.

I wish Fox could be banned from doing Marvel movies (scratch that: all comic book movies) and just hand all of those properties to Marvel Studios. They actually take care of their characters.

NOPE!  Brett Ratner wasn't even close to this one.  This was directed by Gavin Hood, who did the horrible film Rendition.

You seriously liked Ryan Reynolds? I thought Mary Kate Olsen would have made a funnier and much more badass Deadpool.

The guy at the snack bar was telling me about the endings tonight and I was like "what... the fuck?" Unfortunately, I only saw the Japan one, where he apparently speaks one word of Japanese while the waitress magically becomes bi-lingual.

The movie was fucking awesome and way better than the previous ones.

I can see why you said everything you said. But when do you just have to sit back, relax and not worry so much about the story and such in a movie? I think if you can't enjoy a comic book movie purely based on the action then... well i don't know where I'm going with that but all I'm saying is you really can't expect a whole lot more than a good time out of movies like this.

Uwe Boll? Ouch! I agree that the movie was horrible (a freaking katana blade comes out of his hand! where the hell did that come from?!), but Uwe Boll doesn't make movies; he makes crimes against humanity.
