Ok so I saw this movie Midnight on Thursday,
It starts ok... and it stays along the premise that Striker gave Wolverine his claws...
This movie introduces the Team X
Deadpool (Wade) Excerpt from Wiki page: "Nicknamed the "Merc with a Mouth", Deadpool is a high-tech mercenary known for his wisecracks, black comedy, and satirical pop-culture references. Like the X-Men's Wolverine, Deadpool is the product of the Canadian government's paramilitary Weapon X program, although his place of birth is unknown. After Weapon X cured his terminal cancer by implementing a regenerative "healing factor" extracted from Wolverine, Deadpool is left disfigured and mentally unstable."
John Wraith/Krestel Phasing Can phase in and out
Wolverine
Sabertooth/Vykter
Agent Zero God with a gun
Silver Fox? Not really there however kayla is somehow a reference to her
Blob BIG FAT MAN with tremendous power and industructable in many ways (not part of Weapon X ever)
If you have never read a single XMen comic this movie is entertaining and full of great fight scenes and a lot of sly quips.
What is doesn't do right is too long to list all but the only thing that really matters is they messed up my favorite GAMBIT!
Gambit (Remy Etienne LeBeau)Taken from WIKI:
"As a mutant, Gambit possesses the ability to manipulate kinetic energy, as well as a hypnotic charm. He is also skilled in card throwing, hand-to-hand combat, and the use of a staff.
Originally a professional thief, few X-Men trusted Gambit when he first joined the group, a source of stress between him and his longtime on-again, off-again love interest Rogue. This was exacerbated when his connections to villain Mister Sinister were revealed, although some of his team members accept that Gambit honestly seeks redemption.
As the X-Men's self-described ladies man, Gambit has shown a more vulnerable side of himself over the years, especially when it comes to Rogue. Gambit remains fiercely proud of his Louisiana heritage, and speaks in a very thick, Creole accent."
Now the guy in the movie starts with some Accent unknown to me and looses it along the way, they also make him a gambler... They just miss the mark completely.
However again if you never never knew any of this the movie is very entertaining...
I give it a B- for at least a good Super Hero movie somewhat based on the XMEN comics and Marvel Characters.
