Yeah, this is what I expected it would be: a mediocre action movie with some cool superheroes in it. The action is interesting enough, and Jackman is pretty good.
However, it doesn't follow the proper storyline, and Deadpool is ruined, depending on what they do with him in the forthcoming Deadpool movie, so comic book fans will definitely be disappointed. Even myself, not knowing what Wolverine's story was, felt it was a missed opportunity, and that some things just made no sense (ex. "Let's spend a billion dollars making him invincible. Okay, now, let's kill him."). In addition, every actor other than Jackman was just Ok.
Hopefully the sequel will be better (*sigh*).

An entertaining action movie with a good performance by Jackman, but it's mediocre in every way and forgettable.
