I don’t know if it’s the same for you, but I feel like the more footage they show from THE WOLVERINE the better I start to feel. Let’s clarify– I didn’t feel awful going into it, after all it is Wolverine. However, ORIGINS left a bad taste in my mouth for several reasons. Logan seems to do well in the X-MEN films but hasn’t had much luck out there on his own. I have hopes that THE WOLVERINE will change that, or at the very least will serve as a palette cleanser.
A new and spoilery featurette titled “A Ronin’s Story” gives more insight into the plot of the film. There’s a good bit of new footage here. Not to mention that we figure out more about the Silver Samurai-robot confusion. The overall theme here is Logan’s state of mind and facing the possibility that he can be killed.
Synopsis: Based on the celebrated comic book arc, this epic action-adventure takes Wolverine, the most iconic character of the X-Men universe, to modern day Japan. Out of his depth in an unknown world he faces his ultimate nemesis in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality, emerging more powerful than we have ever seen him before. THE WOLVERINE hits theaters this month on the 26th.
