I also liked the cast a lot more here and, like everyone says, the inclusion of Deadpool was a great thing that gave great comedic relief throughout the film. The animation is also better as, although it is the same US-TV style, there is more blood and more shading than in the Thor film. It helps that this film also has real action with violence, thrills and urgency. The story here is better and the setting of the military industrial complex as the background is a lot less silly. I am sure there are people who do not like Wolverine as a character but I am yet to meet them and this film reflects the style of the character that I have come to know through the odd comic book and the films. I guess this is very much personal taste and some will love it but for me the saving grace of the DVD was the second film. The action sequences are simple enough but the plot didn't engage me and just seemed to be noisy and pointless stuff. The Thor film is pretty weak as it is based heavily in this world and filled with lots of "thee" and "thou" dialogue that just seems silly. Thor never worked for me as a character and I never liked the world of Nordic Gods or Thor as a character – not helped either by how colourful and clean he is. This therefore makes it more a matter of whether or not you like the two characters. This is the case here again as, although he is the title character, both of the films really belong to the other characters. It will be a matter of personal taste but for my money hulk is a pretty weak character that the last two film version have shown to be difficult to do much with other than produce big noisy effect sequences. Personally my preference is for darker, more adult stuff from my comic books but I can enjoy this sort of thing to as long as it is well done.

I'm not a massive fan of Marvel characters generally but a friend sent me this DVD thinking I would like it so I figured I should be polite and accept the gift. In the second story Wolverine is called in by the military to deal with an out of control Hulk, only to find he has more familiar problems to face. In the first film Thor is targeted by the evil Loki, who harnesses the power of Hulk to destroy Thor, only to find that the beast is harder to control than first though. In two stories Hulk's power is pitted against two other Marvel superheroes.
