Wolverine And The X-Men: Deadly Enemies DVD Review–Bad Value, Great DVD

August 27th, 2009 in Action, Adventure, Animation, Movies, Reviews -

This is kind of a tough review to write, because it’s going to require that I contradict myself at just about every turn.  Today I’m talking Wolverine and the X-Men, fresh out from Lions Gate.

This gives us another five installments of the series from Nicktoons in one handy package, showing us a little more of what’s going on and continuing on from previous episodes.  It’s actually pretty entertaining, and I remember some of this stuff from the comics outright, so you know they actually managed to keep to the canon fairly closely.

But the problem is, despite the fact that this is five installments, there’s twenty six in the season.  Simple math shows it’s going to take likely five volumes to get through an entire season, making this one a profoundly low value.  If you’re just out to get caught up on the season, then it’ll make a good rental.  If you mean to buy it for archiving, wait for the first season to hit.

The Screenhead Ten Scale gives it a five out of ten, for being a success on one hand and a failure on the other.
