"You don't want what I got!" Logan/Wolverine
Not only does this film entirely forget its own canon, it completely messes with its pace by inserting fight scenes every time the plot gets mildly interesting and a wildly inappropriate and downright disturbing romance. Let's start from the beginning. Wolverine has his bone claws when he's in the bomb shelter, and it's obvious that he remembers these events. However, we already know that he has no memory of things that happened in his life before being pumped full of adamantium and shot in the head. Hello plot hole! Also, where are all the mutants?! This film takes place in Japan, the 10th most populated country on the planet, and you expect us to believe that only two mutants are involved (not counting Wolverine, he's not Japanese)? Add to that the fact that there is a fight scene or chase inserted whenever the audience may be intrigued enough to think about the plot enough to predict the rest of the film. Lastly, more shitty 3-D effects! The concept of a train-top chase is pretty interesting. but did it really need to take place in the foot between the top of the train and a series of metal beams? My favorite things about this film are purely things that set up upcoming films in this universe. I love that Wolverine gets his bone claws back. That is awesome! Also, the after credit sequence made me giddy for future installments.
