They went off book with the Viper = mutant part and Silver Samurai = not mutant unfortunately but at least they were trying after the disaster Wolverine: Origins turned out to be.

First off, I thought you meant the first Wolverine movie, so my bad. Second, while The Wolverine was better, that's like saying muddy water tasted better than urine. They took fantastic source material (the original Wolverine miniseries where he meets Yukio and also falls in love with Mariko) and went so far off track that they almost ruined a great story. While I agree it was infinitely more watchable, the best scene was during the credits, but it doesn't even fit in canonically now.
