OFF TOPIC – Wanted
One word: Badass.
Everything about this movie spells out cool. Random nobody in his rise to power. Lots and lots of ridiculous action. Hot girl lead. What more could you ask for?
Many action sequences in this film were so over the top and unimaginable, it was amazing. I knew the action was going to be cool, but I had no idea that cool and elaborate, especially near the end. The idea of curving a bullet is so dumb I would never think anyone could make it cool, but not overly cheesy. But in this film, it works. The movie is very bloody, and its used to enhance the intense action very well.
James McAvoy is great playing a regular loser, but also a good action star. Angelina Jolie is also great and a total badass. Morgan Freeman is his usual greatness.
The movie was based off a graphic novel, which in my opinion was decent, but not especially good. The movie gives a better story and is oddly more believable than its graphic novel counterpart, despite the inclusion of bending bullets. The novel was just senseless killing.
This movie is great entertainment for anyone who enjoys good action. Watch it. NOW.
