This film, directed by foreign film-maker Timur Bekmambetov, packs a super fast punch to the heavy action movie-goers. We find that the frustrated, boring nobody going nowhere named Wesley Gibson played by James McAvoy. It might be hard to call this a supernatural blockbuster, but holds its own with a stunning cast of big-time stars like Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman. Based on a series of graphic novels, this film explores the intricacies of a small time guy yearning to explore his own abilities when he discovers that he is invited to join a group who calls themselves the Fraternity. These people assassinate others based on an intricate weaving machine that spits out names based on fate and fate alone. This clan of killers counted his father as one of them, however, we later find out a twist in the plot-line that helps explain many things. Pursued by rogue agent Cross (Thomas Kretschmann), Wesley is trained by the sleek, sexy Fox (Angelina Jolie) and the charismatic Sloan (Morgan Freeman). Once Wesley becomes his own master assassin, he must face his major opponent confront Cross. While Fox (Jolie) has a strong presence in her scenes, the film belongs to McAvoy, who plays his part much to our satisfaction, after learning how he has been transformed. Curving bullets may sound crazy, however, we soon find out that this is one of the Fraternities tricks. Don't miss this film, yet, let me warn you of the heavy war-faring content and an endless supply of bullet popping blow-aways. I'm going to give this film a 4/5 since I don't totally agree with the content or the typical never-ending barrage of fowl language.

Great movie, a disappointing ending however it is still an amazing film. Great for action lovers, filled with thrills. This is a movie you won't fall asleep through. Angelina Jolie plays her role very well and James McAvoy and Morgan Freeman are great like always. In general all characters are great, the story is superb. Filled with bullet spinning action and thrilling music, this movie is great for all audiences (ages 13 and up). Recommended for Action, and Thriller fans.
I like the occasional action movie, and this is one that I did like. It's graphic at some points (sex and blood), but otherwise very entertaining. I loved the car chase scene with Angelina Jolie in the red car. I liked this movie so much that I had my brother come over to watch it too - and he agrees, this was a great movie. Of course his opinion might have something to do with getting a glimpse of Angelina Jolie's butt - but the car scenes and various violence was enough to keep both our attention. Not just a guy movie (I'm a woman), but definitely not a movie for kids.
i love!!the movie “ wanted” so i came on here and found it at a amazing price shipped quick an movie works great only problem is that the case was broken the bottom clip doesnt close but other then that great buy and great product
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Let me start by saying the movie was exciting and very entertaining especially with Angelina's face on the screen. Fast cars, curving bullets, and a good story plot all made this a must see. The only issue I had may have manifested because of all the hype I heard. Although this movie was praised and said to have great visual effects (which it did), the effects did not seem to meet my high expectations. It is definitely no Matrix, but if it is rated in a category all its own then it is most definitely worth watching. Bottom line: I am glad I made the purchase and I encourage you to do the same.
