Wanted

This movie looks horrible. It looks like the sci-fi equivalent to, You dont mess with the Zohan. Morgan Freeman helps the appeal of this movie, but Angelina Jolie...,well, all she does it attract horny teenagers, unless you really think she is a good actress. If that is the case, may God forgive you. From what i have heard , this movie is made by the same director of Night Watch and Day Watch. I have to beleive this because the effects look like garbage. I will give a nod to Night Watch and Day Watch though. Assassins who can make bullets curve and lack of practical locations...,no thank you.

it looks like a good waste of time. I may watch it.

unless you really think she is a good actress.

Have you even seen Gia, and Girl Interrupted!! she IS a good actress. Unless I just got totally confused by your post...

yeah, she did have a fine performance in Gia, but since she has hit celebrity status all i see in her movies is teeth and hair. She seems to have adopted Clint Eastwoods technique of talking low and acting with the face, but it falls flat for me. Her performances always feel synthetic to me.

I'll see it for some ridiculously over-the-top action.

it'll be like a serious version of "shoot 'em up" only better perhaps.

i hear its based off a comic book.

I've read the graphic novel/comic and thought it was pretty average, with some badass moments thrown in there. The movie looks to be the same way in this sense. The comic heavily revolved around supervillains though, and for the movie adaption they took out all special powers/comic-like characters, etc. or changed them to fit the movie. I'm curious to see how the movie turns out, but, having read the source material and with what I know so far, it'll be an average, fun, unrealistic action movie. Nothing special, but hopefully a good popcorn flick.

I haven't yet caught on with the commercials or any promos but yes I would definitely want to catch on Angelina Jolie,so I guess I will be watching the movie.

Definitely going to go see this. I love James McAvoy to bits. Angelina Jolie I am lukewarm about, but McAvoy makes it a must-see.

I can't wait to see this one - it's one of the few movies coming out this summer that I'm willing to wait in line for, just to see it on opening night. The trailers look cool as hell, especially the newest one that just came out a few days ago, and I like both Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman. I love me some crazy over-the-top action movies; June 27th can't get here fast enough!

It looks like Chuck: The Movie.

LOL! That is the best description I have heard so far. Of course, I don't know that Chuck is ever going to become an evil killer capable of assassinating someone from a mile away, but still... I get your point. 😄 Nonetheless, I'm still gonna see it; getting to hear Morgan Freeman scream profanities in the red band trailer that just came out is almost worth the price of admission by itself.

I looks way to stylized

Bekmambetov has always been a superb visual director, if sometimes a little over the top

still very strange to think that's the same guy as

Davis O'Hara...very underrated

never read it.

movie looks exciting I think,

bullet curving🙂

Loved the graphic novel. Sure as heck not watching this disaster.

You should. It's a fantastic comic.
