A combination of cheap fiction, lack of cohesion and poor casting, is creating a fictionally unsupported plot of an action movie.

"What the f**k have you done lately?"
― Wesley Gibson
It is a reviewer's nightmare to keep track of a movie's mistakes, disappointments and exhales of frustration all at once. Half-way through the movie you are forced to take a pad, start taking notes, which ironically enough is more fun than the movie itself. And this movie is a tragic mistake, in which everything falls out of line, from the casting choices till the tiniest plot hole.
I'll try to start from the plot's embarrassing ridiculousness. Wesley's life seems like an allegory for every one of those who watched the movie, as a bored and desperate human being trying to find something to be excited from (in this case an action movie with assassins). But even his "anxiety attacks caused by his abilities" is as laughable as his training and "destiny". Utterly illogical, nonessential violence, rationally unsupported.
Reflecting upon the whole "Fraternity" organisation, it is beyond hilarious, considering its history, system, cause and members. The "loom" and "fate making decisions through a LOOM!". How hopeless can someone be to create a fictional universe that would make such a cheap choice?
It is impossible to forget James McAvoy as Wesley Gibson. This character is totally not suitable to him, along with Morgan Freeman as Sloan, a poor casting choice indeed.
Another reason for the "1 star/awful" characterisation should be the plot twist, so unnecessary and idiotic. Also, frustrating turn of events, totally unsupported and moronic.
Lastly, Wesley's "revenge". Sloan, the doughnut lady, his former best friend. How was that considered a revenge? Granted for Sloan, but for the others? Is this really how a "destined" assassin would get back at the most annoying lady he's ever encountered, and his friend who lied and betrayed him? Completely out of character!
"And to answer your question Mr. Gibson, all I can remember doing lately is pondering whether I watch this movie or Megaton's Colombiana. Let me inform you... an unfortunate coin flip!"
