Pros: Good action sequences and creative ideas
Cons: Characters are not very endearing
Summary: People sometimes wonder what it's like to take the road less traveled. While that path may offer a refreshing change to the ordinary, people will also discover the pitfalls of these paths. In Wanted, a disgruntled office worker learns he has a ... read more

Pros: Jolie's sexuality, fanciful, imaginative special effects
Cons: Childish, unoriginal, violent
Summary: Wow. This film certainly had some interesting moments and felt engaging to watch, but that's about it for the pros. As for the cons... the movie is terrible overall. This film has epic proportions of cringe-inducing cliches and sophomoric stabs ... read more

Pros: Great action scenes & special effects!
Cons: None really!
Summary: After seeing the trailers for this movie, I thought that it was just going to be another so-so action movie, so I was pleasantly surprised when I actually sat down to watch it. The movie centres on Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy), a young man down on his ... read more

Pros: Freeman, Jolie, action, some twists
Cons: extreme gore, language, characters not defined well
Summary: My husband wanted to see this movie bad. I am positive it was because Angelina Jolie is in it. I will admit I was remotely interested,but nothing like my husband. I was not even sure exactly what it was about as I only saw a piece of the trailer on the ... read more

Pros: Suspense, drama, mystery.
Cons: Unoriginal.
Summary: For starters, I did enjoy this movie. However, it seems to me that this movie wasn't really that much of a stretch from any of Angie Jo's other movies. She runs around with a gun, half naked, shooting the "bad guys". I've seen this all too often in her ... read more

Pros: Strong cast. Creative action scenes.
Cons: Major storytelling flaws, particularly in the second act.
Summary: Wanted is a movie with outrageous action scenes that defy any sense of logic or understanding of physics. The filmmakers are clearly interested in freeing themselves from such constraints when devising these sequences. There's certainly nothing wrong ... read more

Pros: Action-packed, Feel-good. Great, believable cast. Angelina Jolie. Quick adrenaline fix,lift.
Cons: Must suspend belief for some parts, but great ride!
Summary: -------------This Review Reveals Minor Plot Details--Maybe a Smidgen more than the Trailer--------- This movie is not pretentious--if you liked the trailer (and kept a light-hearted attitude about it), you will immensely enjoy the film. ... read more

Pros: Wicked cool action sequences, cool leading actors, and fun in a guyish, testosterone-fueled way.
Cons: It's absolutely ludicrous if you think about it... so don't.
Summary: General Introduction Let’s get this straight right from the outset: Wanted is an absolutely ludicrous film. The worst thing you can do, if you decide you’re going to see it, is think too much about what’s going on. That is an ... read more

Jul 21 '08
Pros: Overall acting, action is exciting
Cons: lacking any kind of substance
Summary: Wanted is one violent, ridiculous, preposterous movie. It wastes no time before telling the viewer exactly where it stands. You can feel a Sin City-like intent behind it, although Wanted does not come close to the kind of class and sheer quality that Sin ... read more

Pros: Morgan Freeman, explosions, Angelina Jolie's bare behind
Cons: Morgan Freeman, Whacked out physics, disjointed and rushed plot, thin character development
Summary: Wanted is a typical summer blockbuster; it's high on guns, girls and explosions, and low on plot, character development and realism. Don't get me wrong, Armageddon is a classic on my list, but I prefer my escapist action movies to be at least ... read more

Jul 14 '08
Pros: Eventually the closing credits come.
Cons: Well...
Summary: There is a kind of movie that is not about telling a story to entertain the audience. It is, rather, a movie whose creator smilingly simply tries to milk a base need within the members of the audience by providing virtual stroking of that need until the ... read more

Jul 08 '08
Pros: Jolie and Freeman
Cons: thin characters, iffy plot and just not a lot of meat to it
Summary: As a general rule, any movie with Angelina Jolie in it will at least be watchable. Any movie with Morgan Freeman is probably going to be the same. This isn't to say that they don't make some stinkers, but usually they're at least good in the flick. ... read more

Pros: A couple of cool effects and ideas, Angelina looks good.
Cons: Predictable, highly underdeveloped plot, bad basis for assassination list, movie was very slow
Summary: I have kids, so I haven't had an opportunity to see a rated R movie in quite a while. So, while my kids were out of town on a vacation to visit relatives I felt it a good opportunity to check out a good adult movie, and was hoping that Wanted was the ... read more

Pros: Great set pieces, good performances, Morgan Freeman steals the show.
Cons: Sometimes stretches believability, goes over the top.
Summary: Imagine if you will this: What if The Matrix knocked up Lucky Number Slevin. That's the easy part, but if they had a love child together, then no doubt would Wanted be the result. It's the best action flick I have seen in a couple of years, maybe even ... read more
