The story of Wolverine 2 takes place after X-Men 3: The Last Stand. At the end of that one, Wolverine reluctantly kills the uncontrolled Jyn to return the world to peace again, but he himself is troubled. The X-Men seemed to have nothing to do with it, and they broke up. Although Wolverine and Storm took up the responsibility of the academy before the war in that movie, and promised to continue to run the mutant academy, after this battle, the team prospects are dimmed again. Magneto's ability to recover and Professor X's resurrection seem to have some hope, but before the team regroups and fights against the same enemy again, let's interject a piece of Uncle Wolf's abject and constantly abused life. This is the story of Wolverine 2.
In order to escape the pain caused by Qin's death, Logan went into seclusion in the old forest in the deep mountains, accompanied by the brown bear, but had nightmares all night, leaving painful claw marks in the dense forest. Finally, one day, he stumbles upon Yukio, a Japanese woman who can predict the death of a person. It took her a long time to find Wolverine in order to take him back to Tokyo and say goodbye to the Yashida.
It was in the late World War II. Wolverine and his brother Saber-toothed tiger temporarily separated, and he was alone in Nagasaki, Japan, when he encountered an atomic bomb dropped by the United States. It was also there that he saw a kind-hearted Japanese soldier. The soldier saw the U.S. military plane and did not flee by himself. Instead, he opened the door of the prison, released all the prisoners, and risked being hit by the sentry to keep them from opening. Gun, and let him run after finding Wolverine at the bottom of the well. He looked at the mushroom cloud rising after the atomic bomb landed in the distance, and looked at several superiors who had already cut their abdomens. Just as he was about to kill himself, Wolverine rescued him, and they leaped into the well, which seemed to be the only safe place. Wolverine protected Yashida with his own body, and he was covered in bruises and blood, but it only took him a few seconds to recover, as if nothing had happened. Yashida was shocked, but with great gratitude, he was willing to give away his samurai sword, but the other party told him to keep it for himself first, and he would come back to get it one day.
In this way, he returned to his homeland, struggled step by step, kept getting hurt and stood up again, just like the former "wolverine". Finally, he spent most of his life and established the family business of Yazhitian Company, the largest giant in Asia. But he will also grow old, he still does not have a suitable heir, his son is too greedy, his granddaughter is too young, there are still dangers within his family, and he needs more time to complete all this. Finally, he thought of the "wolverine".
Wolverine came to Tokyo with Xue Xu in this way. He saw the old Yashida. He wanted to just say goodbye, maybe take the samurai sword from many years ago, but what he heard was that the other party wanted to say goodbye. Help him end the pain. He lives alone in this world, caring and loving others like a normal person, but inside him, there is a secret of immortality sealed away, and he can only watch generations of people come and go, each one he cares about. People grow old and leave, but he remains the same, enduring a unique pain alone. Generations pass, and generations come, but the earth remains forever. The sun rises, the sun sets, and we rush back to where we came from. The wind blew southwards, turned northwards, swirled constantly, and returned to the original path. The rivers flow into the sea, but the sea is not satisfied; wherever the rivers flow from, they still return. -- "Bible. Old Testament. Ecclesiastes"
He still refused the request, and in the evening, Yoshida died. At the same time, he was harassed by Jyn again and was murdered by someone.
At the funeral the next day, he discovered something suspicious in time, fought with the gang, and protected Yashida's granddaughter Mariko. During this process, he only felt dazed and powerless. He could only rely on his thoughts to support him. With the help of the archer, he finally boarded the train bound for the south with his granddaughter. In the bathroom of the car, he was horrified to find that he could not heal himself. He fought with the gang again and again, and the wounds all over his body were painful like never before. Finally, they fled to the south, and he seemed to emerge from Jean's shadow to fall in love with Mariko. But the next day, he found that Mariko was kidnapped again, and he was powerless. He wanted to rescue him, go back there, and prepare to take out the toxins from his body, but was told that it was his own death. After successfully taking it out, he met the real ronin again. He was hit by poison arrows, covered with scars, and finally fell helplessly on the road.
In the end, he faced the huge machine, two steel claws were cut off by the hot alloy, and the alloy in his body was sucked out in pain. He is getting old and getting old, and the opponent he faces is the old friend who has already changed beyond recognition. Fortunately, Yazhitian's greedy face was torn apart by his granddaughter. He finally wanted to say goodbye to everything in this world.
One day two years later, Wolverine went through another ordeal, and life seemed to return to peace. During a security check, the metal around him began to vibrate, and the familiar scene seemed to return. All things stand still, time seems to have been pressed for pause, Magneto and Professor X are back, and they are about to reunite to fight a new and deadly threat.
The Wolverine 2 story is indeed a bit far-fetched, and this episode doesn't seem to have had much of an impact on the main plot or the X-Men dispersal, other than a reflection of Logan's pain after Jyn's death. That adventure in Japan seems to be forced in for the story of "X-Men: Days of Future Past", so it's no wonder that some viewers will say that this movie "The first 120 minutes are all previews, and the last 2 minutes are only a preview. It's a feature film", admittedly, the previous story seems dispensable. To put it more profoundly, it seems to be a story of greed corrupting people's hearts, a story about capital of all evils. In layman's terms, this is just a story about an ordinary Japanese soldier who was rescued by Wolverine by chance. The film side's understanding of the Japanese character characteristics is still quite appropriate. It is polite and revenge for revenge, bullying the weak and forceful. It is obvious that they have done a lot of research on Japanese culture. This is indeed a movie with a somewhat strange theme, which has ruined some viewers' views. "The hero slept with the heroine, killed the heroine's father, killed the heroine's grandfather, and almost killed the heroine and her fiancé". The appearance of the female partner Xue Xu is different from the general aesthetics. The face shape is similar to an inverted triangle, and the lower part of the face shrinks too fast, which is out of the category of melon seed face. The specific beauty depends on personal taste. There are naturally a lot of bugs in the film, such as why Wolverine was not with his brother Victor during World War II (it is understood as leaving temporarily, some bean friends likened Nagasaki to a toilet, saying that Wolverine just went to the toilet by himself , just experienced a nuclear explosion, very innovative); Uncle Wolf's underwear can even prevent nuclear bombs, which is really better than Hulk's pants that can change size freely; I still can't understand the heroine's fiance, the archer and The relationship between the snake and the scorpion girl, I feel that some characters are superfluous or unnecessary; Wolverine just lost his steel claws, only bone claws, and finally turned to face Magneto and stretched out bone claws, but It can still be controlled by Magneto. My understanding is that Yashida has not completely absorbed the alloy in Wolverine's body and was stopped by Mariko's dagger. I am not sure whether it is the self-healing factor or the alloy, but it is indeed from the steel claws. Sucked from the cut. Anyway, what is certain is that my uncle wolf's steel claws are gone and only bone claws are left. The fight between Wolverine and the gangster on the train is still a standard Hollywood blockbuster. It is more relaxed and humorous when the two aunts take a bath and rub their bodies as rape and throw the heroine's fiancé downstairs into the swimming pool. The relationship between Wolverine and Mariko is really inexplicable. I have been having nightmares and being disturbed in front of me. I keep saying that you love Qin, don't you care, hello! The strength of Wolverine has been greatly weakened in the latter part, and the self-healing ability has obviously been restored, making the audience look forward to it. With a show of strength, it took a long time to fight a few wasteful people, and finally blew up the car to save the heroine and was shot into a hedgehog. After I grabbed it, I was still stuck in a chair and couldn't move, even my claws were locked, which was really shocking. I feel sorry for Uncle Wolf for a second. I also saw someone say that the high-concentration snake girl seems to be out of American pornography. I took a closer look. Whether it is true or not, she is really suitable for American pornography. Wanting to see her kissing Venom tongue is a bit heavy...
In short, this "Wolverine 2" is indeed the most independent of the three "Wolverine series". After all, the original name is "The Wolverine", and the other two are literally translated into "X-Men Prequel: Wolverine" , one is pure "Logan", also makes sense. This film and the third film are directed by the same director James Mangold. The big difference in ratings is mainly due to the script. Whether the script is good or not is whether it is solid or not. 20th Century Fox also boldly asked the director to continue filming King Kong. Wolf's curtain call, the director also directed the high-scoring horror genre "Deadly ID" and Belga's "Force King" starring Dummy. This "Wolverine 2" even after two X-Men prequels, 20th Century Fox, has nothing to do and must add one before reversing the future, so it forced to create this somewhat far-fetched "The Wolverine".
