Hello ! I just wanted to point out this looks awfully lot like feuille_verte's review. Anyway... Here's my comments:

Logan: He was almost perfect, but I, like many others expected him to be more animal-like, because, let's face it, he's supposed to be like that. About him being 'in love when he needed to be', I would have agreed, but Silver Fox' character was too weak, and the chemistry between Hugh and Lynn was terrible... And about his memories, yeah, it's nice to see him as a guy with a past, but the solution to wipe his memories was stupid.

Victor: Sabretooth always had a lesser version of what Rogue's powers would be, at least the super-human strength part anyway, so I'm not at all surprised that he could kick Logan's ass, much of the time. Rogue would be even stronger than Sabretooth, but they'd be similar, and it was interesting to watch. <--- Ok, this was wierd. Yeah, Marie has superstrength she got from Carol Danvers, but Sabretooth is real strong guy too. And he'd have to be real strong, or Logan would have gotten rid of him ages ( ... )

I did like the look he gave her when he sitting in the back of the truck when he was off to work. But Hugh just looked uncomfortable instead of turned on when Lynn was astride him during their big 'love scene'.

Hugh's chemistry track record with any actress who isn't Anna Paquin remains unblemished. :)

About the 'big love scene', yeah he must have been. He'd have been more comfortable if it had been Anna. XD (Or his wife, LOL!) And well, the subtle signs of L/M in X1 and X2 are somehow more beautiful and meaningful than having 'his girl' all over him.

You're so right, silma ! XD

I love your review! =] I agree with everything you said and I did a little fangirly squee when I saw Gambit for the first time. =D

I just wanted to ask, did you stay until after the credits in the cinema? Because there were 2 additional scenes and they changed depending on what cinema you saw it in so I was wondering which scene you saw?

paradisekendra May 5 2009, 18:39:11 UTC

Oh no! No, I didn't know there were two additional scenes! When I go back and see it again, I'll know to stay. Thanks for that!

firstflier May 5 2009, 23:08:19 UTC

=D Not a problem. I hope you enjoy whichever one you get to see. I forced my friends to sit and wait because I thought there might be more coming and we were the last 4 people left in the cinema. It was really embarrassing until I was proved right. Lol!

feuille_verte May 5 2009, 21:39:29 UTC

I got the one I wanted. XD
