MY RATING: B+RUN TIME: 110 min
MPAA RATING: R
MY REVIEW: I'll start with the good. It's every nerdy boys dream come true. Wesley (James McAvoy) goes from obscure looser to ultra-cool assassin. Compilations of action packed sequences made this movie a blast. If it's an action movie you're looking for, Wanted delivers that and more. Fans of profanity will be delighted at the 45,000th use of the word "fuck." Excellent use of humor turned predictable scenes into something original. It was refreshing for an action movie to acknowledge the actual silliness of its story and be able to use that to add some comedy to a blood-filled killing fest.
Now the not so good. Although there were some great action sequences, the camera angles switches so quickly and so abruptly in some area that I lost my place and was left disoriented for a few minutes. Personally, the blood was a little much, however, if you're one of those video gaming freaks that love to take your anger our by blowing someone's head off and watching their brains splatter all over, then this movie will tickle your pickle indeed.
Overall an action packed film with lots of blood, and oh! Morgan Freeman.
