Great popcorn entertainment

Rating: 9/10 (8 September 2008)

The story is about Wesley Gibson. A loser, stuck in a boring job. His best friend is fu**ing his girlfriend. But that's all going to change. On day he learns that his father was a top assassin, belonging to a secret organization that disposes of people who deserve it. While being in a convinience store Wesley is rescued from an assassination attempt by the the ultra cool Fox (Angelina Jolie). After that he quickly realizes his destiny and gets trained in all the deadly arts. What follows is a thrill ride that contains action that is so over the top that it's almost unbelievable. But it looks great and is entertaining.
Also the plot of the movie has a few interesting twists.
Morgan Freeman is the only cast member who seems kinda out of place as he is obviously unchallenged by the material. He is too good an actor for the insignificant role he is given.
Aside from that little flaw the movie is almost perfect Action Entertainment. With stunts that make it hard for you to not cry "WOW" out in your theater seat. If you like action, you will certainly not be disappointed by this movie.
My recommendation: Shut off your brain and go and enjoy this movie
