As the impresario behind gravity-defying Russian blockbuster Night Watch, it's inevitable that Hollywood would come calling for Timur Bekmambetov. With a studio budget and an international cast, including two Oscar winners, Timur cooks up a Hong Kong-styled actioner bursting with fast cars and big guns. Our unlikely hero is mild-mannered Chicago accountant Wesley Gibson (Atonement's James McAvoy), whose father died when he was a tot. Wesley never learned to stand up for himself, and his girlfriend, boss, and best buddy all take advantage until the seductive Fox (Angelina Jolie) rescues him from a sharpshooter named Cross (The Pianist's Thomas Kretschmann). After which, she whisks him away to a mansion on the edge of town to meet the other members of the Fraternity, where leader Sloan (Morgan Freeman) informs Wesley that Cross, a rogue agent, executed his father. Sloan believes Wesley has the goods to take him out, so he undergoes the Fraternity's brutal training regimen (Marc Warren and Common dish up some of the abuse). When he's ready, Sloan sends him out to fulfill his duty, but matters become complicated when Wesley finds out someone isn't telling the truth, leading our former milquetoast to exact an elaborate revenge. For those who've been following McAvoy's career to date, Wanted will surely come as a surprise. In adapting Mark Millar's comic series, Timur offers buckets of blood and a smidgen of depth, but fans of The Matrix and Mr. and Mrs. Smith will want to give this one a look. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

- Way over the topI won't try to sum up the movie itself because by now you'll probably either already love or hate it, and if you don't, there are plenty of better reviews of the movie than anything I could write. Suffice to say it's way over the top, but full of some delightfully original ideas that it's able to embrace because it doesn't feel it has to stay in conventional storytelling or realism. Sit back and enjoy the ride.
What's more important to you here is how good the Blu-ray master is, and ... Read More

- I wanted more!`Wanted' was one of those action movies at the time of its release in theaters that people looked forward to. It looked promising and had a fine cast. The results were disappointing.
If it wasn't for Angelina Jolie, this movie would have gotten a 2 star review from my part. The whole plot was very silly and obviously the action sequences a little hard to believe. The movie does have its interested moments; Angelina walking out of a Jacuzzi butt naked and some action scenes that were ... Read More

- RidiculousIf you are one of those people that can tolerate even a little ridiculousness in your movies, this is still not for you. Between bullets knocking each other out of the air, flipping Dodge Vipers, and other assorted nonsense, this movie goes from action to impossible to ridiculous to silly to plain sad (the last three are unintended). There is escapism, and there is stupid: this movie is stupid.

- DisgustingThis was the biggest disappointment and a total waste of money. Foul language, sex, weird story line, I found it to be disgusting. The one plus I could give it would be that the graphics are fascinating.

- Mindless funBy the end of the movie I was wondering if this was based on one of Mark Millar's graphic novel ideas, and sure enough, it was in the credits. The movie has garnered a fair number of negative reviews, but this film about an ancient guild of super assassins does have its moments, although for its material it basically rips off just about every recent action thriller you can think of, from The Matrix to Star Wars. Still, how many truly original movies are there? A movie's success basically depends on ... Read More
