This is a strictly by-the-numbers assemblage of action movie clichés. It's big yet never spectacular. While the individual set pieces can be fun, put together they don't add up to much at all. There are some talented performers here playing characters that are potentially quite interesting (and in whom many in the audience are already invested) but the script never treats them as much more than plot devices or gives us a reason to care about them. Throw in a finale that's pretty much lifted from (and done better in) "X2" and I can't think of much reason to recommend this. Wolverine deserves better. So does the audience.
