The new summer hit is without a doubt the newest installment of X-Men. The newest X-Men film is a prequel to the beginning of Wolverine. It goes into an in depth of Wolverine and how he became Wolverine. The movie opened at #1, opening weekend and insured everyone that this was the best action film of the year. And this summer film is sure to keep audiences on their feet. There are many scenes that make you cringe, and makes you want more. The ending is sure to make you like the movie and you will agree that it is worth seeing. During, the movie you will also, learn secrets to the Wolverine name. You learn secrets like he has a brother, who makes a small role and keeps you wondering what other questions you will have.

A part of the movie that viewers may be disappointed with, is the other differences that come with the new movie. The movie has many differences from the original X-Men Franchise, since the original featured no brother to Wolverine. The lead role is done by Hugh Jackman, and does a fairly good adaptation as the super hero that we know and love. The other actors' parts are all small and done by several of the superheros that we know. Although the people that were most praised for the roles in the X-Men movies like Halle Berry are unfortunately not in the movie and this will disappoint. The movie was about Wolverine, and did feature all parts on him and his up-bringing and life before becoming part of the posse known as X-Men. The film has many great special effects and you really learn that the actor really had to get into the role once again to get the job done.

I enjoyed the film, not being a fan of the franchise, although many viewers who are huge fans did not fill the movie wowed. And they didn't feel the movie lived up to the high expectations and the story of the beginning; and the way the comic states it. I feel this movie will however score for weeks to come; because of the large majority of people that enjoy the franchise and comic. And if you do decide to watch, make sure that you are not expecting the comic; make sure you are ready for surprises and a few hours of hardcore excitement
