Wanted: Capitalizes on Jolie's Hotness, otherwise bankrupt

Wed, 10 Jun 2009 14:56:44 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author darmokandgalad - 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...

Wanted: Wanted is definitely wanted.

rating: 0/5 by: Epinions Author igwando - I watched Wanted last night on DVD, I needed the pause button to make sure that I missed none of this one. Wanted is very well done and it is a fast paced "shoot 'em up" movie that kept my attention from beginning to end. If anyone has...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author pmills1210 - 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...

Sun, 10 Aug 2008 15:04:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author danmclovin - 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...

Wanted: Your Regular Run Of The Mill Comic Book Movie

Sat, 9 Aug 2008 23:07:21 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author dev-n-diva - 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...

Wanted: What I 'Wanted' Was a Better Story

Sun, 3 Aug 2008 00:16:58 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author briankrakow - 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...

Sat, 26 Jul 2008 15:54:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kengland4 - -------------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...

Wanted: Don't think about it, just watch it.

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 13:45:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author disgruntlement - 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...

Wanted: Toss all rationality and logic aside! Here comes Wanted!

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 23:00:56 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author wrestler - 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...

Wanted: Why bother?

Wed, 16 Jul 2008 15:40:09 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author livewire_13 - 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...

Wanted: Wanted (2008): The Kind of Movie The Columbine Killers Would Have Loved

Mon, 14 Jul 2008 08:24:30 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Ed.Williamson - 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...

Wanted: Fun Summer Movie

Sun, 13 Jul 2008 06:22:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author markroah - It's a classic summer movie with action and great special effects, but with most summer blockbusters, you need to check your brain at the door. If you can turn your IQ down a few clicks, then you'll enjoy...

Wanted: very good action movie

Sat, 12 Jul 2008 05:23:37 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author erkcuf - Lots of action in this one! Special effects are awesome also! Watch for the twist at the end that surprised even me! Well worth the money and time I...

Wanted: Angelina Jolie is hot! Morgan Freeman is a god! That's about it.

Tue, 8 Jul 2008 05:19:23 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hist - 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...

Wanted: The Matrix meets Lucky Number Slevin

Mon, 7 Jul 2008 18:22:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author nicholasvargo - 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...

Wanted: Good storyline obscured by obscenity.

Mon, 7 Jul 2008 00:04:03 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author eryan123 - Loads of cursing really detract from the story. From the beginning office scenes to the what would have been ironic and good ending the movie was filled with as many curses as the writers could muster. Perhaps the writers could invent a little more...

Wanted: Wanted - or A Nietzschean uber-mensch shoots people in satisfying ways

Sat, 5 Jul 2008 21:09:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author benho - Bullets that curve. This could be the tagline and the recurring motif of this Assassin action thrill fest starring James McAvoy and Angelina Jolie, in this Timur Bekmambetov film (director of Russian runaway phenomenon, Night Watch) based on a Mark...

Wanted: Pow! Wow! Shoot em up

Sat, 5 Jul 2008 08:07:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lli_wright - Starring: James McAvoy, Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman No one can say Wanted does not start with a bang. Within the first 3 minutes the dead body count reaches six. It packs enough wallop to be deemed excessive over-the-top grotesquely violent...

Wanted: Big Empty

Sat, 5 Jul 2008 01:03:21 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author whaler66 - I've heard people compare "Wanted" to the "Matrix" and that's a fair comparison I guess. In terms of style... yes... these two films have a thing for over the top action sequences. Heck, both films like to twist the law of plausibility into a...

Wanted: Do not want ever again. Seriously.

Fri, 4 Jul 2008 12:18:04 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tjhassecrets - This isn't typically my kind of a movie. I prefer comedies, truth be told, but my boyfriend is a bit of a gun nut so I took him to see this train wreck last night. Normally, the tickets would have cost me 18 dollars, but thanks to a student discount,...

Wanted: Enjoy the Ride

Fri, 4 Jul 2008 11:08:51 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author angeladok - If you always go to the movies expecting something that will entertain you and make you think, laugh or cry, this is not the movie for you. If you like thrills and fast paced non-stop action then you will definitely enjoy this movie. I must say this is...

Wanted: Shoot 'Em Up's obnoxious younger brother: Wanted

Tue, 1 Jul 2008 16:32:39 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bc814 - Timur Bekmambetov's "Wanted" is, frankly, terrible but I'm glad it exists for the simple fact that despite his propensity for the byzantine, illogical and implausible Bekmambetov is able to tell a relatively simple story, too. He doesn't do it...
