more experienced directors.   Despite many well known names (such as Ian Mckellen)  appearing in X-Men all the actors fail to make this film exciting. Hugh Jackman, who has recently starred in the film 'Australia', returns as Wolverine again. Compared to his performance in Australia, X-Men was pretty rubbish. However in my opinion I think Hugh Jackman puts 101% effort into this role. He brings emotion to the character and makes it believable. Especially towards the end of the film when he is faced

Medical dramas throughout the world portray their version of what they think the medical system is really like, but also what it should be like. This is evidenced through multiple different medical dramas from this country alone.

revolution providing brash intellectual commentary and volumes and volumes of naked playmates”, Hugh Heffner started this iconic magazine who’s Bunny head logo is now recognizable in a large portion of the world, and has become recognizable on such a level thanks to the “revolution” it started. The 1950s was the time period where the company would take off but later on with the woman’s rights movement in the 1960s there were some mild but still obvious speed bumps in the way.
