X-Men Genesis: Wolverine – opening sequence and Deadpool scene

It is probably the worst Wolverine movie in the history of all X-Men cinematography. The idea sounds pretty good: show Wolverine's origins, make him a lonely superhero, finally separate him from the rest of the X-Men group. However, the creators quickly got lost inside this textbook example of "style over substance." However, there are two interesting moments worth considering for a moment.

The first shows Wolverine along with his old friend Victor Creed (also known as Sabretooth) in an extremely interesting war sequence. They make their way through the battlefields of the Civil War, the First and Second World Wars, and the conflict in Vietnam. It's pretty and spectacular, and at the same time it's an interesting visualization of how the time passes for the immortal two heroes (which often discussed in the comic books).

The second is a shorter scene, also from the beginning of the movie, thanks to which Ryan Reynolds probably secured a role in the next two Deadpool games. Before the creators completely spoiled his character in the second half of Genesis (where Deadpool has no mouth, so the film takes away his most important feature, i.e. the sense of humor), they gave this hero some freedom and a decent amount of screen time.

In this excerpt, the character of Reynolds fully shows his skills, but before that happens, the movie skillfully builds up the tension in the scene of waiting in the elevator. There's some great situational humor here (even more emphasized in later films). There's at least that to sweeten the otherwise unsuccessful Wolverine.
