‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’

The “X-Men” movies took a sharp turn between “The Last Stand” and “Origins: Wolverine.” Suddenly, the series went from biting political commentary to overblown action nonsense, and it was jarring to audiences at the time. Now, it’s easier to accept that “Origins” is literally a cartoon (see as proof Jackman’s hilarious CGI claws), and the movie can be enjoyed as a piece of silly fluff – especially as we eventually got a serious Wolverine film in the form of “Logan.”
