Somewhere in the wilds of northwest Canada in the early 1800s, Logan and Victor, two half-brothers with special powers grow up amid violence. Eventually they will become the near-indestructible warriors known as Wolverine and Sabretooth. William Stryker is a sinister government operative whose Weapon X program experiments keep pulling Wolverine back in. Kayla Silverfox shares a peaceful Canadian co-existence with Wolverine as he tries to drop out of the program. Along the way, Wolverine encounters many mutants, both familiar and new.

Wolverine.

The first of the X Men origin or prequel movies tells the story of everyone's favorite X Man, Wolverine, before he joined Xavier's band. The film begins in the 19th century when Wolverine, formerly known as Logan, learned what made him different. Logan and his half-brother (who becomes known as Badger) fight in numerous wars, including the American Civil War and Vietnam, although the two are Canadian. In one scene, a US military recruiter tries to get Wolverine to join the latest military campaign my stating "your country needs you!" Wolverine replies, "I'm Canadian."
The story also shows how Wolverine obtained his name, lost his memory and gained steel claws.
The movie is well worth watching, although the ending still leaves many questions about Wolverine's past.
As this movie is about a character named for Michigan's state animal, Michigan residents in general and U of M students in particular should watch it.
