'Wanted': One new assassin, will train right person. Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy) is an every man; you might even call him a “common guy.” Don’t do that, though ... that one is mine.Back to the movie, Wesley is going through life with a boss he can’t stand, doing a job he doesn’t really like and just living day by day. But all that changes when Fox (Angelina Jolie) grabs him at a drugstore and starts a firefight with a mysterious man in the store.
"Wanted" blasts you with both guns blazing, from the moment the film starts through the closing credits. This movie doesn’t let up and doesn’t make any excuses. That’s part of the reason I liked it. It’s an adult action film that doesn’t try to water itself down to get a PG-13 rating.
"Wanted" is not going to be a winner with everyone, but for pure popcorn enjoyment, it will make you forget about life outside the theater for two hours.
