...alien-robot knowledge - making him, once again, the Decepticons' main quarry. And once again, it takes director Michael Bay 144 minutes and a tremendous amount of firepower and heaving bosoms to re-vanquish the Decepticons. Even then, it still seems highly likely that the worst of them, a black hulk bearing an uncanny resemblance to Mont Saint-Michel (yes, the French island town) will live to see a third movie...

...less to do with the director's stewardship than with Tom Cruise's waning star power. On his Enterprise enterprise Abrams summoned Leonard Nimoy out of a black hole to play an elder Mr. Spock, and Eric Bana, star of the lambasted Ang Lee version of The Hulk, for the bad-guy role of Nero. But Chris Pine (young Kirk) and Zachary Quinto (young Spock) are actors not previously seen on a movie marquee; they might not even be in FaceBook.

Spider-Man emits goo from his fingers, and he can fly. The Hulk gets mad and becomes bigger and stronger. Wolverine's Dragon Lady fingernails make him the toughest guy on the block. It's the outsider's ultimate dream. Use what's different, the Marvel gurus teach their readers, and you could get your own comic-book franchise...

...What holds it together is Jackman, an actor who suggests the decency that is meant to be at the core of his character. As Logan struggles to tame his Hulk-like temper, so Jackman works to fit his friendly, temperate persona into the action-film superhero mold. The Australian star, who first came to prominence in a London revival of Oklahoma, just is not a natural glowerer. His benign showmanship hints that what Wolverine is likely to explode into at any moment is not a homicidal rage but a rendition of "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin...
