It wasn't as bad as I thought it is. Initially thought it was
gonna be really long and draggy. Well ok, it was kinda long since it's a 2
hour-long movie.
Check out the trailer in case you haven't
watch it yet:
Directed by James Mangold (who also
directed Knight and Day, starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz) , The Wolverine
is an action movie about wolverine from Xmen (duh! *rolls eyes*), where he got
"invited" by someone he saved last time back in Japan to see him
before he pass away, but things wasn't as simple as he thought. A trip to Japan
which almost cost him his life.
Starring Hugh Jackman as Logan aka the
wolverine, Rila Fukushima as Yukio (the red hair chick with bangs), Tao Okamoto
as Mariko, Will Yun Lee as Harada.
The whole film takes place at different
places around Japan, except at the beginning of it, where Yukio found Logan and
managed to convince him to follow her back to Japan.
Like most action movies, expect it to be full of actions, explosions,
shootings. The parts I like are the fights on top of the bullet train and the
final fight towards the end. I jumped a bit during the last part because it
wasn’t something I’m expecting.
Another part which I've noticed, is when Logan and Yukio was on the plane, on the way to Japan, they are sitting at the opposite direction of each other, showing that they are not in the same "group". What I'm trying to say is, they have different objective at that time. At the end of the film, they are sitting facing the same direction together, showing that they are now on par with each other and they both have the same objective now.

There’s one part which I don’t really like though, which is the
part where Yashida (the old man who wanted to see Logan before he dies) who was
lying on this bed, and it will automatically go up and down tracing the body
movement of Yashida to help him get up. It looked really really fake, and yes
of course I know it’s CGI, but it’s kinda too obvious.
Overall, it was a not bad film for me. I’ll give it a 6.5/10.
