Wanted (2008)
8/10
Worthy of leaving anyone marveled
9 September 2008
Wanted leaves you marveled by the fine web of its deception,encapsulating charm, so much so, that for most of its plot, it takes viewers to the height of the plane of believing that they have seen it all and heard it all. We have some excellent stunts, a hard-nosed hero who doesn't believe in the seemingly-impossible, special effects and an endless list of assets which make this flick deserve its share of kudos, and leave us gaping in awe. We get to see how the boring life of a slacker, plagued by tormenting from his boss, and other problems, help unlock his dormant powers, giving way to lightning-fast reflexes and phenomenal agility, which are made to blossom by FOX. Plot twists, and turns moreover, are another facet of the synopsis, which allow us to get partial wind of the underlying twist, present since the very beginning under our very noses, for instance, when Cross tries to rescue our hero when he's on the verge of plummeting to his death from the train.

In all, a worth-watching action packed film, with brilliant acting by Jolie, which makes it deserve plenty of éclat.
