Summary: wanted limited edition
Comment: Great movie but not worth price with extra content. I wish I bought the regular version saved some money.

Summary: wanted 2 disc dvd
Comment: This movie was fantastic. I can not believe the young man was the one who was in the first Narnia movie. Great action movie for anyone.

Summary: Amazing Finish!
Comment: After about 30 minutes of this movie, I really thought I had made a mistake buying it. I did not like how the plot was unfolding, and the acting seemed subpar. However, this flick made a huge comeback at around the 30 minute mark. Angelina Jolie gives one of her best performances, and the main character suddenly begins to become an awesome actor. The plot suddenly gets interesting, and you will want to watch it again as soon as the movie finishes. I recommend this movie to anyone looking for a fun couple of hours. Don't let the slow start bother you. The second time you watch it, you will understand why it starts how it does.
Enjoy!

Summary: He's the Dude Playin a Dude Disguised as Shia LaBeouf
Comment: I see Angelina Jolie gettin' so much press in the tabloids and I'm like, "She's not that hot." Then I see her in a movie and I'm like, "Man, is she ever hot!" And she's even hotter in Blu Ray!
Unfortunately, Angelina's acting in Wanted doesn't compare to her hotness. In fact, I'd take just hearing her voice in Kung Fu Panda than watching Wanted again. Wanted isn't as bad as I'm probably making it sound...I enjoyed it! It was good...not great...just good. The movie made good company while I wrapped Christmas presents just before the 2008 Holiday.
Some guy named James McAvoy acts and looks just like Shia LaBeouf. He hooks up with a cult of assassins with super-human powers (including Jolie), and he starts slow by dealing a little payback on some work acquaintances, and then enters the assassination major leagues with Jolie as his mentor.
The whole thing is pretty predictable, with the same hokey humor that was abundant in Transformers. But Wanted is salvaged by awesome action sequences and cool FX.
Wanted is a fun ride, but if you're organizing your queue, you might consider dropping this one down a few slots in favor of another.

Summary: Nah...
Comment: Having seen Timur's Russian movies, I am glad to see him get some publicity in the West. He has been able to incorporate some awesome visual effects into some quite inventive action movies. However, with "Wanted:" some of the effects in this movie are the same effects I've seen in his other movies, the plot is lame and brainless and completely predictable, the performances are solid but characters are completely one-dimensional, and by the time the film was finished, I felt ripped-off. Ah well, just don't expect much and you may be entertained for at least 90 minutes...
