There was sooooo much that was awesome about this movie I'll only mention my two problems with it:
Seriously, you MUST go see this if you are any sort of comic/action film fan.

I liked it in the same way I liked Iron Man: I know it's not the best movie of all-time or even this summer, but it was still awesome.

I love the Marvel Movies but I haven't seen this one yet but I'm definitely going to. The trailer just looked too good

Fun movie, but I wanted Wade Wilson as Deadpool, not whatever-poor-amalgam they had at the end and called "Deadpool." Not a gamebreaker, but it's too bad since Deadpool is a fun character.
Oh also the ending was very contrived. I fail to understand why adamantium bullets gave him amnesia when shot in the head (post ad.-skeleton), but normal bullets (pre ad.-skeleton, which could also pierce him) would not. Also X2 heavily implied (if not stated outright) that the experiment itself played the largest part in his amnesia.

I've only seen the first X-Men movie (and that was years ago), but this one looks great. Really want to see it.

It was moderately entertaining but fairly predictable...though as an action movie I guess that's not really what matters the most. I'm not sure it holds up to the other X-Men movies, but it was still pretty good for its genre, which I am typically not a fan of (though I did enjoy the Watchmen & the Dark Knight, and that was quite a surprise). I was for some reason expecting more screentime for gambit and cyclops, I guess because of the trailer, but it makes sense for them to get little since the movie isn't really about them. Still, as action movies go, it was pretty good, so if your an action/super hero movie fan, you'll probably love it. I personally think the super hero genre is getting a little worn out after so many sequels and remakes of the same relative character plots.

I saw it and thought it was pretty good. Made me want to see the other x-men movies again.
Supposedly, after the credits...

Haven't seen the movie yet, but the game is pretty dang good. If you like 3rd person slashers like God of War or Heavenly Sword, you'll love this one.

I think I might rent it this weekend. I dunno. I really want to play it, but time is an issue.

Saw the first one in the theater, and looked up the second ending online. Both were great post-credit clips.

I really liked this movie!

I think it's too bad we don't see more from the Team X, and Gambit. Also, epic storyline, really great, makes you recap the whole thing over and over again

Watched it and liked it.
I also didnt get why the Adamantium Buletts bring him Amnesia.
But i liked it because so he forgot that he killed his father.
Also i was surpised to see the Actor of deathpool (Weapon11) in this Movie.I know him out of an Comedy series.But he was cool.
The EndBatlle was great.The Movie was well done.
Wolverine rocks

To Maveritchell: I don't think that is what they were trying to say. I'm probably wrong, but I believe that they (or at least Striker) that the adamantium bullet would just kill him. But it was later that the other woman stated that it wouldnt kill him, so Striker just accepted that and decided to go for it, whether it killed him or not. Also, I don't think that they ever said that normal bullets wouldn't kill him. Again, please correct me if I'm wrong.
It wasn't about killing him or not killing him. We know Wolverine could survive normal gunshots to the head - he was in a number of wars as shown in the opening and not only did he survive, but he also faced up against at least one firing squad. The odds of not being hit by a bullet to the head are astronomical and in his case effectively impossible.
Stryker also made a comment (at the end) to the effect that Wolverine wouldn't remember any of this, implying that he knew his magic bullet would give Wolvie amnesia.

Perhaps they just forgot to mention what he coated the bullets with.

@ tsurugi13:
Actually he kinda pulled the bullets out of the case and said: "Adamantium Bullets....".
