I wish the ratings descriptor had noted that the "partial nudity" was not for the hot brunette chick, but for gratuitous Hugh Jackman ass.

Frankly, the best part of this movie might have been the opening credits. At any rate, it was almost definitely within the first 20-30 minutes in my mind.

(BTW, did this film seem way short to anybody else?)

And for the first time in movie history, I actually wanted to see more Ryan Reynolds.

For my money the ranking goes like this:

1. X-2
2. X-Men
3. Origins (but not much behind the original)
4. X-3

Oh, PS, anybody else catch the Daniel Negreanu cameo?

There is an entire Deadpool movie with Reynolds in the works now, and a Wolvie sequel too. I agree with your order also. The best part of the Wolverine movie was IMO right after he escaped and he was with those two nice old people and then stuff immediately went to hell again. I was prepared for way more exposition than what they did there.
