Plot Summary: Based upon Mark Millar's explosive graphic novel series and helmed by the stunning visualist director Timur Bekmambetov--creator of the most successful Russian film franchise in history, the "Night Watch" series--"Wanted" tells the story of one invisible drone's transformation into a dark avenger. In 2008, the world will be introduced to a superhero for a new millennium: Wesley Gibson.

25-year-old account manager Wes (James McAvoy) was the most pathetic, cube-dwelling hypochondriac the planet had ever known. His boss chewed him out hourly, his girlfriend cheated on him daily and his life plodded on interminably. Everyone was certain this weakling would never amount to anything. There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die a slow, clock-punching death.

Until he became Wanted.

After the murder of a father he never knew, Wes discovers powers beyond his dreams. He becomes the latest recruit in the Fraternity--a secret society of assassins--and develops lightning-quick reflexes with superhuman agility. Wes soon learns his league of henchmen has but one mission: carry out the death orders of the mythological Fates, weavers of every man's lifeline.

With wickedly brilliant tutors, he morphs into a killing machine and starts erasing one bad guy after another. But as Wes grows into the mantle passed down by his father...he discovers his clan members are not exactly the enforcers of justice they claim to be. Just as he gets everything he ever Wanted, Wesley Gibson will learn that with the ability to deliver death comes an even more difficult power...controlling your own life.

That movie looks really fucking cool. It kinda reminds me of The Matrix, the way the trailer talks about not being sheep, and getting away and stuff. Plus Angelina Jolie... whats not to like?

New Rusian R rated trailer looks really good.

[AnalBreeze]

Anyone going to see this on opening weekend?

[dop]

I have no idea when its opening down here, tho im not particularly hyped about it but Id likley still catch it the OW.

[MISSanthropic]

I'm not the biggest fan of Angelina Jolie, but this movie looks freakin' awesome.

[Morbid]

Horrorholic was a bit dissapointed in the film. I will be seeing it tonight, along with Wall-E.

Horrorholic was a bit dissapointed in the film. I will be seeing it tonight, along with Wall-E.

Yeah. He told me about it too! I hate you for seeing both films before me!

[Mr_Vindictive]

I plan on seeing Wanted sometime Tuesday and taking my daughter to Wall-E on Wednesday.

I wasn't the most impressed with the Night Watch films but this looks so competely fucking insane. I have a feeling we are on the brink of some sort of action film revolution. This film and Shoot Em Up within a year or so? I hope this is only the beginning of a renessance of bullet heavy testosterone films.

[AnalBreeze]

Has anyone seen it yet? Is it 9 year old kid friendly? I want to take my son to this if it's not too sexual!

[dop]

I dunno if you are aware of this AB but IMDB has a usually really descriptive parents guide broken into sex, violence and some other shit of the sort, I wont post the stuff directly cause its spoiler riden(heres the link if you dont give a fuck (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0493464/parentalguide)) but basically the most intence is fucky fucky over a kitchen sink, no genialia seen but a lot of thrusting and moaning....

Edit, ohhh and the most nudity in it is a full shot of Jolie's ass.

[Morbid]

Yeah, there is a scene of a dude plowing a chick. Like dop said, no nudity, but still...he was going to town. Jolie shows off her ass as well.

BTW, I liked the movie. It has problems, but it is a good action flick. I have written up my own review that I will post later today.

[AnalBreeze]

I guess I'll wait and have to catch a late show without my son! Thanks!

[Lizard]

I'm not a parent and haven't seen it yet, but every time I see the poster, I'm alarmed by Jolie's skeletal arm....

I'm not a parent and haven't seen it yet, but every time I see the poster, I'm alarmed by Jolie's skeletal arm....

I'm not! Holy cow she is so freakin' hot!

Well, yeah, it probably does make a difference that I'm not interested in fucking her. And let's face it, one's eyes aren't drawn to a skeletal arm in this pic!
