X-Men Origins

Submitted by rocco on May 21, 2009 – 10:20 am4 Comments

X Men Origins Director: Gavin Hood

Producer: Hugh Jackman, Lauren Shuler Donner, Ralph Winter, John Palermo

Screenwriter: David Benioff, Skip Woods

Stars: Hugh Jackman, Liev Schreiber, Danny Huston, will.i.am, Ryan Reynolds, Taylor Kitsch

Rating: 2.5 / 5



Does justice as an action movie, but nothing spectacular or worth remembering, doesn’t compare with the release of the first X-Men movie series.

Sorry Wolverine put your claws back in the closet, the plot just gets watered down and isn’t engaging enough to keep you interested.

“Good blockbuster fare. Origins lacks the magic of the previous films, but Hood does well with a franchise whose shelflife depends on which mutants are next.”

- Total Film

“While not a disaster, this isn’t the claws-out, rampaging adventure we hoped for. No-one cares where Wolverine found his jacket – a spin-off with him kicking ass in Japan would have been way more fun.”

- Empire Magazine

    Allover the film was good, but the was not as expected
    I was expecting some great action in the film but came out a bit depressed. Yes, Gavin Hood entertains you nicely with his direction but still somewhat nice action would have been a better entertainer!!!
