Wanted?

Love the review from you guys!-
"Current TV viewers give their review"
Your candid banter should be reviewing more movies!
Loved the movie too~

It wasn't the best movie of the year, but come on people, it was entertaining; exactly what a movie is supposed to be. Good actors, good action, good graphics, good ending, and a nice twist.

And to all the skeptics putting it down, it did explain how some members of the fraternity had super human powers; their neurochemical, such as dopamine and adrenaline, contents could be controlled much better and they had almost 400% the capability as a regular human.

They totally used a body double for Angelina's ass

I almost fell asleep in this movie, and I laughed out loud at most of the "serious" parts. I want my money back.

I will probably see this just for James McAvoy.

And probably on DVD.

Where's the girls that review? Miss them.

Yeah I didn't know what to expect. It was something that should be watched on a HighDefTV. If I wasn't reviewing it, I don't know if I would have gone to see it. But it was a fun rolercoaster ride. Don't expect too much emphasis in story.

Thanks for watching!

Definitely worth the action, although the action is based in no logic whatsoever. I agree, turn your brain off and don't ask questions and you will like it. The cast was great but am I the only one who thinks Angelina isn't skanky enough anymore to pull these hard ass roles off. Gone are the days of drinking Billy Bob's blood and making out with her brother. She's married, a mom, and adopts babies for shit's sake. It would be nice to see her try to step out of her old element and really pulling off some roles with meat.

this movie was sexy

The movie had some serious plotholes. It wasn't very inventive and I felt like I had seen it before. Yet I was entertained from beggining to end and I'd have to agree that the acting kept me in it. A list Actors in a C- script. Regardless it did what it needed to do for a summer film. I could do without a Wanted2 however. But it made money so I guess we will see it right after Hancock 2 comes out.

The movie was awesome, if not for way too much suspension of disbelief. The limo assassination was freakin sweet, and it was funny. In the end, it was a guy movie. It was funny, it had an underdog story, it had cool bullet-bending and chase scenes, and it had one of the best ending scenes of any movie.
Oh, and it had Angelina Jolie rear nudity, always helps.

It wasn't an amazing movie. I mean, it was a good movie to watch once because the action was great and it was pretty comical (at least I thought so). Aside from that the plot sucked!

That whole "Kill one and 'MAYBE' save a million" was pure BS. They definitely killed like 1000 people during most of the action scenes!

Psh. It wasn't based in reality therefore judging it as such just isn't reasonable. I mean in the trailer they show you him getting swept up in the car. If that was believable enough for you to go wow that's believable and then you spent money to see it....your fault.

It was a fun movie.

It had a bunch of action scenes that have not been seen before, just like Saw had a bunch of death scenes that were not seen before.

It's fun. A summer movie isn't suppose to be well put together that there's Oscar screams. Tis not the season for that...just yet.

Same with me, basically what the one guy in the green shirt said- you have to suspend disbelief and it is fun, that's it. Not a good movie but worth watching if nothing else is out there.

i went a saw the movie today...the effects were awesome...the gun fights,the action was great....but for some odd reason...i really didnt care for it....i mean it was allright...deff a movie to see in the theater...there was alot of cool sounds whizzing by from the surround sound

Ok I am ready to get crucified- This was my favorite movie of the year so far. Let me have it- I can take it!

I absolutely love these reviews. I dont think I'll see this movie but thanks for the laughs.

Okay, in the comic the whole thing takes place in an alternative DC universe wherein Fox is supposed to be Catwoman and the Fraternity is supposed to be nothing but super villians who have succeeded in killing off all the heros. Oh and they used interdimensional imps to rewrite reality so that all the surviving heros now think their ordinary people (which includes a scene wherein the Batman & Robin of this dimension are overweight gay lovers who have no idea they are really superheros)

Sooooo.....this movie has absolutely nothing to do with the comic except the share the title and two of the main characters have the same names as people in the comic.

Not a problem! That's okay....but the movie plot was really, really lazy.

There were two awesome sections of the movie:

1) When Wesley is bitching about his crappy job/life

2) The stunts

When nothing was exploding the plot seems really retarded. God is sending binary code through a loom on who to kill?

Um, okay! Probably the dumbest literay device I've ever heard, but no problem. I'm sure the rest of the film is going to be awesome, right? Nope.

Wesley's life as an assassin seemed, well, kinda boring. I was expecting Jason Bourne but all I got was some dude that can bend bullets?

What? No ninja moves? No cool gadgets? No impossible "Did-You-See-That!" assasinations? True, he flipped his car to shot someone but aside from that....nothing particularly creative, memorable or interesting.

And what is up with his Dad???

You'd think at some point he would -- I don't know -- maybe slip the kid a note letting him in on what's really going on instead of remaining mute the entire movie? Again, that characters actions seems to implausible/nonsensical to be enjoyable.

I don't know. If it were a live-action Disney Studio Stunt Spectacular I'd think it was amazing....but as a movie it was a C+ at best.

The one dude, (Mike) seems angry at the world. Good review all and all.

actually, it is a total bastard
it was orginally a comic written by mark millar (who has quoted "wanked off in a pile of cash for what they bought that script at") that (as most comic movies do) resembles nothing to what the actual story was (v for vendetta, league of extra ordinary gentlemen, from hell, and those are just examples of alan moore's work)
closer adaptions are better stories that arent masturbatorial excertions of original stories (300, Sin City)

oh oh oh, in the movie Morgan Freeman goes "kill this muthafucla" shit was funny....specially with his voice n all....he narrorated Walk of the Penguins....c'mon lol!!

i don't have a y chromosome and i enjoyed this movie :)

still don't forgive you guys for wall-e though, i mean, c'mon, you gave wanted a better review!!

lol

some serious lack of brain...

but you are guys, so what can one expect?

keep em' coming!

i just saw the movie my self i loved it totaly awsome!!!!

I dont think they are saying that at all. I think the fact that they have normal people reviewing the movies, you get a sense of what is worth spending your dollars on and what is clearly commercial crap. I have been watching these for a while now.

I don't always agree with them but I find them entertaining and I think it is the perfect advertisement. Because it is a trailer mixed with honest opinions.

I like Current with it's counterculture alternative living slant, but what's up with these "featured video" big Hollywood movie commercials they throw in?

Right in between the anti-bush, anti-corporate articles is this giant corporate commercial. It's like they're saying f*ck corporate America, but watch this movie first.

Guess they gotta pay the bills somehow.

I am highly disappointed in currents review squad, bashing wall-e yet enjoying wanted. Did Pixar not have enough over the top action and ass? I'm sorry but wanted was total shit, hell its so over the damn top even the happening seems more plausible and that is just pathetic.

It was her ass, she gets naked all the time. This movie was fun. You guys hit it on the head. good acting, bad plot, fun movie.

As a female, I agree, it's a brainless action filled lacking solid story guy movie. And that was not Angelina's ass people....come on.

haha
I did like the movie.
It's win a win
Angelina for the boys
James for the girls
good enough to please us all.
=)
it was a good movie though, I liked it. James did a good job.

Mcelvoy (spelling) really made this movie great. It was a sub-par script and he made it fun.

OK I forgive you guys for WALL-E, I saw this movie this weekend actually and agree it is a fun popcorn movie.

Excellent movie.Good actors.Five thumbs up
