Also, your mileage may vary, but I’m a huge fan of Liev Schreiber’s Sabertooth—in the original X-Men film, Tyler Mane did a great job of capturing the character’s hulking menace, but he mostly came across as a mindless monster. But Sabertooth’s best comic stories have been the ones that reveal the depths of this serial killer’s rage and hatred.
Schreiber brings that to light while also helping create a modern mythology where Sabertooth and Logan are immortal brothers who once fought alongside each other but have not turned into bitter enemies.
On top of that, it’s just as convoluted as the comics that came before it, but X-Men Origins: Wolverine provides a serviceable origin story for Wolverine’s past, including how he came to be laced with an adamantium skeleton. From the very beginning, his character has been portrayed as the ultimate mystery man, someone whose past is a secret even to him.
The explanations (like the movie itself) are imperfect, but they do provide interesting answers to questions film fans have been asking since that first film came out in 2000.
