X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)

A look at Wolverine's early life, in particular his time with the government squad Team X and the impact it will have on his later years.

Fast-paced and action-packed, very professionaly produced, but without much of a suspenseful plot.

Maltin**1/2: "Slick but heavy-handed and formulaic, this film lacks the sense of wonder and discovery that marks the first two X-MEN movies, and focuses instead on Wolverine and his adversaries beating the living daylights out of each other. Jackman gives it his best."
