Our suggestions
In this exclusive longer version with more brutally intense action, Hugh Jackman returns as The Wolverine and faces his ultimate nemesis in a battle that takes him to modern day Japan. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his limits, Logan confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality; an epic fight that will leave him forever changed.
"This is the second solo Wolverine movie, taking place some time after 'X-Men: The Last Stand'. It's a definite rescue of the character after the failures of 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' and the last X-Men film. Directed by the capable James Mangold ('The Unforgiven'), the plot is loosely based on the 1980s comic book miniseries 'Wolverine: The Last Stand' written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by Frank Miller. Despite its last section relying on superhero movie clichés to wrap up the story, it's an interesting movie."
