I have been a long time - Comic Book fan
Long Time X-men fan
Long Time Wolverine fan
When all of the X-men movies were coming out it was everything I wanted to see on the silver screen, coming to life since I was 8 years old. No longer did I have to settle for shitty animation and amazing theme music

The first two X-men movies were amazing, everything you could ask for and more, the third was lackluster and rushed, not holding true to the comic book roots and pushed out for money purposes.
All of these Comic book movies coming out starting with spiderman run a fine line of holding true to the true story line and capturing all of the geek's praise (who would probably see the movie anyway) and making the movie more diverse for the entire population to see (ex. take your girlfriend to the movie and she can follow it instead of fall asleep)
Well that is the deal with the Wolverine movie - it gives you some great action scenes and shows you a movie about Wolverine, you wanted more wolverine, well now you got him. Be grateful for that and support the cause, because the rest of the story isn't exactly accurate to the old comic book story line. I do not want to spoil the move for anyone.
What I am saying is the movie was made for the non comic book fan to be able to watch and follow and adapted from its original version because the comic book geeks would see it anyway, however now theses geeks will not hold it in as high regard as we do with the first couple of x-men movie or first two spider man movies.
You want to see a good action movie, that if you didn't have any ties to the story previously you would thoroughly enjoy it, then I recommend Wolverine, good action, good fights, good plot....historically inaccurate.
