Bravo James McAvoy!

Rating: 8/10 (4 December 2008)

This movie surprised me...literally. Expecting cheesy action sequences and a lame script, "Wanted" was fresh, funny, gory and meaningful. Destiny fulfilled being the message. My only overall objection were the abundance of f-bombs. Though you hear it in everyday life, it sounds juvenile so MANY times. However, the best thing were the performances hands down. James McAvoy really changed and became an assassin, and who can resist Morgan Freeman as a bad guy? Jolie of course kicks ass, as always, maybe not as good as in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" though. Overall this movie was a thrill-ride with out-of-this-world special effects. If you're looking for a pick-me-up of a movie, I recommend it. Listen for Freeman's "motherfucker", McAvoy's last line and Jolie's last curved bullet; No pun intended. Enjoy! 7.5/10
