This review is for the actual product, not the movie itself. You wouldn't know it by the outside packaging, but this item includes an updated iTunes Digital Copy, meaning the code "may not be valid" after June 24, 2015. I've used quotes there because I have successfully redeemed Digital Copies for other movies in the past after the alleged expiration date.
I had a little trouble transferring the Digital Copy at first. Instead of getting to the redeem page through the disc, first open up iTunes, go to the iTunes Store and click on the 'Redeem' link in the sidebar. Then insert your disc. It should re-direct you to the correct Digital Copy redeem page.
If you go the other route (clicking on the iTunes icon from within the disc pop-up window), you may be prompted to update iTunes even if you already have the latest version. When you cancel out of that prompt, the disc (for me anyway) stops spinning and iTunes shuts down. So you can try it this way if you want, but just know that there is another way to get it working if this way doesn't work for you.
One thing I didn't like is that sometimes Digital Copies get you the HD version in iTunes. Most of the time, however, you get the SD version. This copy gets you the SD version.

What's great about it: Includes iTunes Digital Copy
What's not so great: Transferring Digital Copy was a little tricky and you don't get the HD version.

I really don't understand the critics. This is not a movie for great thinkers and philosophers of our time. This is not a movie to explain to the world about the true origin of Wolverine. His character is supposed to be an enigma. You get to find out a bit more about him in this movie. Yes, much of the story line was basically 'recycled' from the various comic books previously published. But that, to me, didnot diminish the movie. Everyone should know by now. X Men movies are comic books in action/movie form. And to that end, X Men Origins was thoroughly entertaining to me. The movie was a good way to burn a couple of hours and relax.
What's great about it: Action and more action
What's not so great: Not suitable to people who are looking for more than just a good action movie

Wow! 5 of 5 stars for this X-men movie! Great story, great characters, extremely well created movie! Action, sci-fi, characters, scenses, wow! OK, I am a fan of the X-men series of movies (1 to 3). Now this installment gives the history of the key character Wolverine, from young kid just discovering his mutant skills to his time at war (from WWI to Viet Nam). This is a must watch movie; oh, Blu-Ray makes a big difference!! Alot of great behind the scenes material on the Blu-Ray including an interview wth Stan Lee and a deep-dive into each character.
This is now on my favorite movie list!
What's great about it: Story, characters, great Cinamatography

This movie was not as good as i thought it wouldbe. Like the person before me stated, it is lacking in areas such as graphics. The plot was ok, but not what i thought it would be. Over all not bad.

I was quite impressed by this movie, as I initially thought the movie would be nothing more than a ploy to make more money off the X-Men franchise. Seeing this movie on blu-ray was a real treat!
The sound and picture quality are just out of this world! Some of the special effects in the movie seemed far too fake/obvious, which was unfortunate given that the other X-Men movies had such well done graphics. The plot in this movie is solid, and you get to learn more about the troubled Wolverine character. Not the best movie ever, but if you're looking to be entertained for a couple hours, this movie will certainly deliver.

Verified Purchase:Yes
When I watched the first movie in the X-Men series, I did so very reluctantly. It was my husband's turn to pick the movie and that's what he decided on. I was extremely surprised because not only did I like the movie, but I really wanted to keep going in the series. This movie doesn't disappoint!
