THE WOLVERINE
June 21, 2014  | By David Bianculli

HBO, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

This 2013 movie continued to expand the Marvel Comics movie franchise, giving Hugh Jackman’s title character a chance to go off on his own again, after already successfully anchoring his own origin-story film in 2009. Here, he travels to Japan and gets caught up dealing with a whole new roster of villains, including one named Viper (pictured here, with Jackman’s Logan), played by Svetlana Khodchenkova. That last name wasn’t easy to spell – but I can’t tell you how happy I am that I didn’t have to try to pronounce it on the radio.
