Trys really hard to succeed, but does it?

Rating: 7/10 (27 June 2008)

I just got back from the midnight showing... Wanted managed to be bad*** and clever at times, but the story blew balls, and there were some major gaps in logic throughout the whole thing. I never thought I'd say "binary on a loom" before, but that basically sums up the story -- it's dumb, but I guarantee there will be a bunch of people that'll eat it up. Basically, it's definitely worth seeing because the action is the next step up in the evolution of Matrix-like action, but if you start thinking the story might be getting good, you can terminate that thought immediately. Also, by the end of the movie the main character is still quite a tool.
