Wanted

Breathe and relax! Get a grip! :p

Enjoyable film. Yes, the script could have been better and Anjolina Jolie and Morgan Freeman could do this in their sleep but the films not about that and certainly isn't as bad as you're making it out to be!

'Cleanse my soul' - Jesus! LOL! Why so serious? :D
 
Curious, I totally agree. Virtually everything else in the film, I could accept as poetic licence, but this, post-DaVinci stuff I wasn't so sure about.

Overall, I loved it. I totally accept the flaws that others have commented on, but, for me it was classic action film, as visually impactful as Terminator 2 or The Matrix on first viewing.

P.S. I watched this back to back with Adulthood :rolleyes: and I really couldn't call the choice of the BBFC for the certs on these films. Don't be put off by the 18 rating for Wanted.
 
I loved this movie. I saw it today and thought it was amazing. I think Angelina Jolie is HOT in it. Awesome graphics. Storyline is good. Want to get it on DVD now.
 
Crank was great, why the hate? For what it is, it's awesome. Hence them making another.

I'm getting sucked into Wanted on the trailer strength, but after watching The Happening, i'm not sure i trust trailers anymore.

You're best off not watching anything for a film, the trailer and especially the making of before hand. Going in "blind" can make for a fantastic movie experience.
 
I went to see it today. In the early bits I didn't like it because there was too much gratuitous violence and blood for no good reason. Then it got much better with the proper action. I reckon that the bullets changing direction mid-air can be explained if you think of it as a superhero / fantasy / magic powers film rather than a horror / action film.
 
Just seen this film;) , and i thought it was really good fun.

If you don't take it too seriously , it's a pretty good story, and the set pieces are cool. James McAvoy was good. Angelina Jolie neeRAB to put on a few pounRAB, but she is still HOT.

Seen it on Sunday, loved it!

I don't think they will have a sequel

considering most of the main characters including Angelina Jolie (Fox) and Morgan Freeman (Forgot his characters name) died
 
I thought it was awesome, brilliant if you want to escape from reality for a couple of hours and just have a blast. The action sequences are mind-blowing, there some great comedy elements thrown in as well. The plot could have been stronger but overall, it's very enjoyable and one of the best movies out this summer so far.

Go see it!
 
I wouldn't have minded if the bullet bending had had some kind of explanation...even something ridiculous like winged bullets would have done me...then i can happily suspend my disbelief and watch the carnage. As it is, personally, I require some kind of explanation when something is just completely unrealistic!

Didn't think it was that bad in all but the bullet thing just annoyed me.

Angelina Bonie definitely looked a bit skeletal in this film the poster above me is quite correct. She didn't look she could kick the arse of anything lexcept maybe a small ryvita biscuit and even then with considerable effort.
 
Really enjoyed it! :) Harmless fun. Ridiculously over-the-top at times and completely unrealistic but it didn't matter. Angelina was fab, looked damn sexy throughout! :D I'd give it a 8/10 too.
 
well i'd give it 11/10 .. i bloody loved it because it was so over the top.

angelina spreadeagled over the bonnet of the car blazing away with two guns ?

what's not to love about that ?
 
It's based on a comic book you know! It isn't supposed to be Schindler's List ;) I enjoyed it as daft summer entertainment. Like The Matrix without all the pretentious fanboy w-nkery.
