It's packed with nonstop action, has cutting-edge special effects and stunt work, terrific cinematography (by Donald McAlpine) and beautiful locations, and is tautly directed by Gavin Hood. A super-buff Jackman gets to explore the character in more depth than previously and Liev Schreiber, as his brother, makes a dandy bad guy.

Wolverine is well-acted, with spectacular action and witty one-liners. The special effects are top-notch. -

If there's one criticism it's that Hugh Jackman still isn't given enough emotional range to play, so he's generally hitting the same note all the time. Otherwise, let's have some more sections of Tangerine...

X-Men Origins: Wolverine: Hugh Jackman and Gavin Hood interview
- 29 Apr 2009
The last time we caught up with Hugh Jackman he had just been named People magazine’s Sexiest Man of 2008. And while Hugh has no problem with stuntwork – before we spoke he made abseiling for charity look effortless (pictured) – it seems he’s still getting used to the idea of his sex appeal - a source of much amusement for Gavin Hood, Hugh’s director on X-Men Origins: Wolverine. We talked to them both about working with Liev Schreiber, and how they felt when the... Read more
