      Well folks...I saw the movie. (Won't disclose details how. Come and arrest me if you want. I broke no laws. LOL)
      I think it had a serious adventure impact but the ending was a major let down. That is all I am going to offer.
      If you like adventurous/action filled movies with "let downs" in the end. This movie is all for you then.

      Thank you...drive through

        It isn't a cannon piece and not even that tied into the prior 3 ( Cylops didn't seem to know Logan in the prior series unless I missed something) I saw the complete working copy on line ( not all effects were complete you can find it if you want to) and I really liked it story gave me some twists (which the x men series didn't do) and could be watched by someone who wasn't well versed in Xmen history ( where as x3 seemed to need a cross referenced bibliography to follow the plot) over ALL 3.75 OUT OF 5.

        that being said I am still Gonna pay to see it with my Bro now that I do know since it is still a solid action movie

            I will explain that Cyclops/Wolverine acknowledgement part.

            Major spoiler below...


            scroll down...
























































            That part is jacked up! Cyclops loses his glasses and is forced to wear this giant metal blind fold to prevent from unleashing his powers. This giant metal blindfold makes him literally blinded and he has to be guided around by Emma Frost who is one of the mutants on this island. Then Wolverine comes and saves the day and helps Cyke and a bunch of mutants escape Striker's island of mutants that are "getting tortured and experimented on".
            Later on, Wolverine gets an adamantium bullet in the skull and he loses his memory in the end of the movie....so that is why Cyclops and Wolverine technically don't know each other in the X-men first movie.

                I think anyone with the average IQ and knows his or her way around the isohunt world has seen Wolverine by now. I didn't even purposely want to see it. One of my friends downloaded it, burned it to a DVD and gave it to me. I feel bad for Hugh Jackman. His movie is going to tank because everyone has already seen it and nobody is going to want to go see it in the over priced theatres.

                I read somewhere where they are going to be adding "alternate surprise" endings and twists so you want to get off your *** and go to the theatre to see it. A last minute attempt to save the movie.

                Sorry, not worth the eight bucks for some people. I will buy it on DVD when it does officially come out. Sorry Hugh, **** happens.

                  I have NEVER taken any review from that website very seriously. All of those people act like a momma's boy who never got out of their parents home before the age of 40 (if even then). I'll go see the film and decide for myself.

                      I'd argue the other way that the first three X-Men movies were actually Wolverine movies guest starring the X-Men, particularly the second 2.

                      While I liked X-3 better than most, they basically killed Cyclops — the long-time love interest of Jean Grey — to put Wolverine in the climax of the Dark Phoenix story rather than Cyclops.

                      If I were making the movie, I would have done the same thing. Wolverine is the most popular character and Jackman is a star but those movies are more like Wolverine and the X-Men than The X-Men.

                      I hope the movie does well mainly so they will make the Magneto movie and maybe the Young X-Men movie which would have Cyclops, Jean and Beast.

                      The Magneto movie could show how he and Xavier got together to build the school and then split over divergent philosophies. It could lead right into Young X-Men.

                        I think you may be wrong about this.

                        People who "go to see movies" will go see it regardless of if it was available
                        online. The thing that will STOP them from doing so is if they watch it online
                        and don't like it all that much OR if they DON'T watch it from online and just
                        hear it wasn't all that great.

                        If this is a real good movie it'll succeed regardless.

                        Online malarkey has affected the movie business but not "that" much from
                        what I see/hear.

                        Alternative endings are intended more for garnering "multiple LIVE viewings"
                        as well as overall publicity/word of mouth for the movie.
                        "No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris Mannix

                          I didn't pick that up the first time I watched it ( disadvantage of a 19 inch old monitor) thanks for the explanation
