X2 > First Class > The Wolverine

Hugh Jackman owns this role, despite the obvious complaints about him (i.e. too tall, no hair, too 'pretty'). Yukio and Mariko worked IMO. Silver Samurai was only OK. Viper was meh (but I'd smash).

The story wasn't terrible, and I actually really liked the stuff with the A-bomb and Wolverine healing after being scorched. The film was basically a more raw version of the first Wolverine, that didn't manage to fuck up too much of Logan's story.

The stinger was pretty fantastic though, and that movie has the potential to be the best comic book movie of all time.
