8 Reasons Why X-Men Origins: Wolverine Is Underrated
3. Wolverine Vs Helicopter
The glimpse of Wolverine clinging to a helicopter for dear life was one of the biggest "hell yeah!" moments from the trailer, and the full sequence within the film didn't disappoint it either. Although prefaced by some fairly shoddy CGI, when Agent Zero takes out the Hudson's with a sniper rifle and the camera zooms half an acre away... yeah, that was some fairly bad special effects work. But everything that comes after, like Wolverine smashing up a humvee whilst riding a motorbike, coming to a skid whilst still on said motorbike by jamming his claws into the cement, to taking down that helicopter using only his claws and a lot of cojones... it's all gold, and arguably worth having a sub-standard Wolverine movie for.
