X-Men Origins: Wolverine is a 2009 superhero film based on the Marvel Comics' fictional character Wolverine. The film is directed by Gavin Hood and stars Hugh Jackman as the title character, along with Liev Schreiber, Danny Huston, will.i.am, Lynn Collins, Taylor Kitsch and Ryan Reynolds. It is the fourth installment of the X-Men film series, and serves as a prequel to the previous installments, being primarily set roughly ten to seventeen years before the film X-Men. The film focuses on the violent past of the mutant Wolverine.
It tells the story of Wolverine's epically violent and romantic past and about his complex relationship with his half-brother Victor Creed. The plot also details Wolverine's early encounters with Colonel William Stryker, his time with Team X and the bonding of Wolverine's skeleton with the indestructible metal, adamantium, during the Weapon X program. Along the way, Wolverine encounters many mutants, both familiar and new, including surprise appearances by several legends of the X-Men universe whose appearances in the film series have long been anticipated.
To be honest, this movie surprised me. I didn't think it would be so good. The action scenes are amazing and the plot is well structured. Basically, any questions you have about Wolverine will be answered by this movie. But, I suggest watching the other films before this one - It'll then be easier to follow.
