Is this the most boring superhero movie or what?

I mean the most boring, not the worst.

When I watch *beep* like Superman IV and Batman & Robin, they are so bad I have a good time watching anyway by simply pointing out the laughable points.

But The Wolverine, it nearly got me to sleep halfway. That never ever happens to a superhero movie. Not Watchmen, not Punisher, not even Super.

I just can't get excited seeing this. Wolverine fights some samurais or ninjas, that's supposed to be awesome! But instead the action scenes are so mediocre and few there's not a single memorable fighting scene.

And there's the so-called romance. Wolverine knew these people for like 5 seconds and suddenly they're his responsibilities? None of these characters are properly introduced and I'm supposed to care about what happens to them?

This awkward relationship which takes half of screen time has no beginning nor end, it's like a joke, a revenge against the *beep* old man and her father. She's supposed to compensate for the loss of Jean?

Ang Lee's Hulk and The Dark Knight Rises are boring. This, however, is not.

I agree. I've enjoyed all of the X-men movies (well #3, was kind of bad, but at least it wasn't boring), except this one.
I was just wanting to get thru it because it wasn't interesting and it seemed so pointless.

This is not even a superhero movie, do you even know what x-men movies are about?

For boring superhero movies, I've got to say that the Supergirl movie from the 80's is really boring. I think I saw the 138 minute version. I don't remember any of it. I was shocked that I'd never heard of it, but then I watched it and realized why.

It might be the most boring movie I ever watched completely through. I think I did at least, I don't often shut movies off because they're boring.

I like this Wolverine movie. It had ninjas, a bear, a mutant snake lady, a cyborg samurai, and Hugh Jackman.

There is no objective reality... and that's Sucker Punch

very boring,
superman 4 has a soul, i liked it - it was not boring, and
this is one boring film. it's as if it was produced in a factory or laboratory, main ingredients were cliches and copying other movies.

Nah. The Dark Knight Rises takes it for most boring superhero movie.
