After watching Rock On, I wanted to watch another movie that was probably more mindless, an action flick, kick-ass, with an amazing chase sequence, fighting, gun battles, just a few dialogues here and there, so that the action is not monotonous. The answer was ‘Wanted’.
More than James McAvoy, the introduction to his life of being regular accountant was a nice start, for the speed caught up later in the movie. Immediately there was a brilliant chase sequence.

Angelina Jolie and her tattooed body was breath taking, but her action sequence reminded me of Mr. and Mrs. Smith as well as Lara Croft.

The director or the story writers seem a little confused about what that they ‘wanted’: real action or imaginary action (Matrix type). It was a combination of both, great combination, lot of confusion. An earth shattering glass scene, while the actors jumped into these windows and the broken glasses to take the shape of the face and body! You have to see it to believe what I am saying.
The other action sequence that I loved was and reminded me of the game - GunZ that i used to play with my brother and he’d beat me. The only thing missing would be the long overcoat in the movie to be similar to the game. But the sequence was like killing, shooting, aiming, somersaults, … and continues till you get hit and loose XP!

One question that I have, everyone else’s name after the main lead Morgan Freeman has been mentioned, also Angelina’s name in the credits as well as other posters. But every single poster that is being promoted all over is the one with Angeline Jolie, and not the main protagonist, surprised here too?
