If they could just dump Origins. Package the trilogy with either X2 or Days of Future Past.
X2, The Wolverine and Logan = Greatest CBM Trilogy of all-time?

Like most IMDB ratings, best to ignore it because of the ballot stuffing issues here.

The rating is a bit sht.

That's better and YES this was better than Deadpool.
"A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man."

Better than Deadpool, I agree.

Doing what? Getting knocked off a train? What are you talking about?

Are you freaking kidding me , did you see the bullet train sequence? these were ordinary human beings doing stuff that even a mutant would have a hard time doing

It was well thought out and impressive. Everything the Fantastic Four reboot wanted to be but failed at.
I accept your surrender.

I'm proud to have this film on my shelf and in my collection.

But a key set piece at that.

Wolverine was just a set piece in DOFP.

DOFP is a story telling masterpiece. This movie was a character masterpiece. Meaning, this IS Wolverine. He doesn't actually do much in DOFP.

Hugh should have been nominated for either Prisoners or this film.
He really should be proud that he got a script worthy of his talent here.

I could not agree with you more, bro
A complete masterpiece in every sense of the word; From Directing to performances and production to costumes and score and story ALL FLAWLESS! This film is my pic for Best Picture of 2013 (Next to 'Carrie' which was also just as well made) It sux it wasn't nominated though

Yep, this film was awesome and one of the best comic book adapted films to date.

The word masterpiece gets thrown around too easily these days but I honestly feel it does apply here.

Ang Lee deserves an "A" for effort but the final product just didn't work at all. I did like his "comix book" cuts trying to bring home the flavor of reading the books. It's just the story itself was a huge swing and a miss as was the lacking CGI.

I'm probably one of the only people I know that actually like Ang Lee's Hulk. The only part of the movie IMO that is lackluster is the final fight.
"No f@cking sh`t lady does it sound like I'm ordering a pizza!"

Who cares what it's rated here? Honestly, these numbers aren't indicative of true reaction.

It deserves much more than the meager 7.0 rating here. I love it's down to Earth tone and action. Don't get me wrong, I love massive action in a comic book film but Wolverine is a character that doesn't need ridiculous stuff like say Superman or The Avengers. Let him have the more fantastical action when he's with the X-Men.
Next to Nolans trilogy and Hulk (yes Hulk) this is one of the most character driven superhero films ever made. The Iron Man films have strong character arcs, but there is more symbolism and meaning under the surface of The Wolverine than most. The directing is strong and assured where the actual touch of the director is felt throughout.
I think some of the complaints against this film are overblown. Like how Viper feels out of place and the OTT third act. I just don't see it. The way people go on about it you would think Viper is some gaudy, scenery chewing uber Femme Fatale. This is far from the truth. She is the typical icy vixen. Nothing more. I actually felt she added some good personality to the film.
And the way people go on about the third act I envisioned this bombastic excess of explosions and fireworks. What I saw was a surprisingly restrained last battle with a respectfully small use of CGI.

I really can't imagine it being done any better.

A strong word but given the character and how this film was executed, it really does apply in this case. Anyone saying otherwise is just an irrational hater.

Masterpiece is a strong word but I applaud its use here.

Given the tone and the great writing, the character has never been better. Since Logan is a legend in the genre, how can that math not mean masterpiece?
