Spot on review. This is the best "movie game" that I have had the pleasure to play. I guess the extra year in development paid off. That should be a lesson for future projects for other studios. This game had a polish, but more importantly a fun factor regardless of the movie tie-in. I agree that the platformming and puzzle aspects did break the flow of the game and at first suspected that if it did not have these I would be complaining that it was too repetitive but the core gameplay stands on its own. I love the lunge ability and quick kills actually feel like there is power behind them. Seeing Wolverines flesh growing back after being torn off in a brutal battle is the touch that this icon deserves. Simply outstanding game.
