Impressive, brutal and relentless.

Rating: 9/10 (9 December 2008)

One Hell-of-a ride and worth slinging off the sweat and jumping back on again. Outstanding special effects and butt kicking action that just keeps on coming. Wesley Gibson(James McAvoy)is a high anxiety suffering account consultant letting his miserable job consume his life. His pathetic existence changes when he finds out his estranged father was a super assassin belonging to a thousand year old secret society of killers known as the Fraternity. He is groomed by the drop-dead gorgeous assassin Fox(Angelina Jolie)and under the watchful eye of the group's leader Sloan(Morgan Freeman). Wesley has the same superior abilities as his father and has been selected to kill the rogue member who murdered him. In due time Wesley will learn the keys to his own destiny. This thrill-fest also stars: Terence Stamp, Thomas Kretschmann, Common and Marc Warren.
