Okay so first of all, the ending was NOT predictable!! I've heard that it was but for me, I did not see it coming that Yashida was alive! I totally thought he was dead and that Viper was trying to get Logan's healing powers to put into Mariko. But that may have just been me lol... I went with Adam (my younger brother) and he told me he say Yashida coming from the very beginning of the movie... But then again, he's like the worst boy ever because he didn't even want to go see the movie and I dragged him with me because none of my friends wanted to see it. They all think I'm nerdy for liking superhero movies lol.
I felt so bad for Logan throughout this movie. When he wasn't going through emotional pain (Jean's death), he was going through physical! I literally cringed when Yashida put that drill into Logan's claw stumps! And when he broke Logan's adamantium claws! Yikes. The worst was probably when he had to cut himself open and pull out Viper's parasite off his heart! I KNEW that Logan couldn't die but when he crushed the parasite and went limp, I gasped... as did the rest of the theater. Speaking of the Viper, the only thing I didn't like about this movie was her. I mean I think she could have been an amazing villain but I feel like she was all bark and no bite. She was only there to prevent the viewers from knowing about Yashida being alive although I did love the scene when she pulled off her skin!
Now onto Jean! I knew she was in this movie and I was looking forward to it because I totally believe that she and Wolverine BELONG together! Having said that, I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of Jean appearances in this movie!!! I thought she would only appear in the beginning of the movie in a dream but she was ALL OVER this movie! I liked how she appeared at all his most vulnerable moments and then in the end, he was able to move past her. I got all girly when he told her that he would always love her but he wants to stay alive.
So the relationship between Mariko and Logan seemed a little forced to me. I mean I like how she helped him move on from Jean but at the same time, she was so much younger than him. There was no chemistry between the two! It was also obvious that the two of them wouldn't have a real relationship because he needs to return to the US and she needs to stay in Japan as the head of the business. Until the point where Yukio died, I thought that Mariko would choose him in the end but guess not.
The post-credit scene was great too! I love the way it was set up and the way Logan is going to return to the X-Men. It made me excited to see X-Men: Days of Future Past. I feel like its funny though for Hugh Jackman. Practically his whole acting career in X-Men. As soon as he finishes one X-Men movie, he's onto another! He finishes X-Men 3 and goes onto Wolverine Origins. He finishes that one and is onto First Class. Finishes First Class and does The Wolverine and now Days of Future Past.
The action in this movie was amazing too. There was a perfect mix of action and storyline so no one is bored! Like I said in the beginning, definitely go check out this movie! You'll definitely love it! It's much more dark than Origins but it's always a new side to Wolverine that you will love! Over and out!
