I'm not the biggest Trekkie but Star Trek blows Wolverine out of the water. They PG'd his harater to death. They made Sabretooth his brother for no reason. It's bad a enough he's such a sap with Jean Gray they have to give him another stupid girl to pine over. Having adamantium bullets make him lose his memory was almost as stupid as being able to predict that adamantium bullets would make him lose his memory. The whole film was suxh a mess. Most Marvel films are though. Punisher Warzone was great though. It didn't attempt to be anything more than it was and God bless them for it.

I'm neither a Trekkie or Marvel fantast
(I used to read the comics as a kid,but don't remember details like sabretooth story and what not).
I'm a outsider and judge them from that standpoint. ;)
The Marvel movies for the most part is targeted at kids,so they lack the edge.
But Wolverine got the edge I was missing,so.....

I saw no edge. I may be a comic fan but I'm not one of those fans that needs the film to follow the book. My main complaint with Iron Man was it stayed to true too the book in some parts. Wolverine was simply a bad movie. You want Edge? Watch Punisher Warzone.
I don't care that Sabretooth was his brother. Shit he was originally intended to be his father. I just don't see why you'd want to kill your brother for pretending to kill your girlfriend. A lot of shit was just stupid in that film.

I downloaded it as a torrent.
I really don't know why it was so panned. I guess people got so used to stupid kiddie Marvel films trying to be more than they are and attempting complex themes like equating the muntant gene with homosexuality and stupid shit like that.Punisher is a story about an ex soldier to takes revenge for his murdered family by killing every fucking low life he gets his hands on. he's Batman with a set of balls. Nothing more than that.
Besides that, I just love the way it's shot and the tone it sets. It's a little weird, but very dark tone that really makes the movie look different. It's not winning any Oscars, but what makes it so great is that it doesn't pretend to think it should win any Oscars, which is what kills most of Marvels films for me.

It was okay. Not bad for a summer movie.

I lost interest half way through the film. good action but nothing that will make me want to see this movie again like the other terminator flicks. T2>T1>>T3>>>>>T4
big fail, hopefully McG retires. like some have said this feels like what batman and robin (T4) were to Darknight (T2, T1)

...you call this cheesy but then you say T3 is better?
sorry, cant take that seriously.
