THE WOLVERINE (Immortality, Guilt and Honour in Japan) EXPLORED
The trajectory of the X-Men franchise post-Brett Ratner's "X-Men: Last Stand" presented a clear challenge for Marvel and Fox in handling the series. Ratner's approach, characterized by a seemingly indiscriminate elimination of major characters, reduction of mutant powers, and a misuse of iconic storylines, significantly deviated from the universe initially crafted by Singer in the first two films.
This left Marvel and Fox in a predicament, necessitating a delve into the past of the franchise, first manifested in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," a film that failed in every conceivable way. I mean they literally decided to suture Deadpools lips, something Deadpool 2 hilariously rectified. However, a notable course correction was achieved with "X-Men: First Class," which successfully reimagined Professor X's team, offering a refreshing reboot to the series.
"The Wolverine" then brought the narrative back to the present, dealing with the fallout of the catastrophic events in "Last Stand" for the first time.
We see Logan, played with depth and nuance by Hugh Jackman, in a state of self-imposed exile, haunted by the specter of Famke Janssen’s Jean Grey, a painful symbol of love lost and difficult choices made.
Director James Mangold, along with writers Mark Bomback, Scott Frank, and Christopher McQuarrie, perfectly capture the character's ferocity, look, humour and spirit. Distinguished by its engaging storyline, exhilarating action, and another stellar performance from Jackman, the film marks a significant improvement and serves as a rejuvenating chapter in the franchise.
