The Wolverine (2013)
8/10
Better than I anticipated...

I'll admit it, I didn't care for the last solo Wolvie film (but I'm not alone in that one...I just can't forgive the treatment Deadpool got) but you can't really compare the two because this one is lightyears beyond that one.

I walked into the theater with minimum expectations--I wasn't expecting greatness but wasn't anticipating failure either--but this one blew me away.

Once again, Hugh Jackman proves that like how Downing is to Iron Man, he is to Wolverine but what I really liked is how the film takes Wolvie into a new direction and provides a character-driven story that sees Logan dealing with inner demons and new challenges that go beyond just slicing up as many people as possible with adamantium claws.

Then the action they toss in is just a delicious added treat! Just a really great X-title and comic book movie in general!
