I LOVED this movie. Of course, I didn't like it the *first* time I seen it; I never do. Some movie's are like that with me, that's why I also make sure I see it more than once. Sometime's I'll see a ... movie at the show and then hate it when it comes to cable or dvd.......The action was SO cool & edgy in this movie & the director was phenomenal. James McAvoy was excellent as well. Those who complain about it being a comic book, well gee wiz hon, so was Batman...As much as I like Heath Ledger, he ONLY won it posthumously because he died...He won it because the "power's that be" were to cowardly to give him an award for Brokeback Mountain. I think the people that don't like this movie, really, just don't like Angelina Jolie. Yes, they are those sad, sad, pathetic people who are mad that Brad Pitt is with her. To those people complaining I say "What have YOU done lately?".......fans of the movie know what I'm talkin' bout. Full Review

"Hot. and better than The Dark Knight." This, ladies and gentleman with good movie taste, is why movies like Wanted and Indiana 4 are produced. Wanted is a terrible waste of money. Bending ... bullets? Is this a joke? Matrix is the only movie to this day that can pull off some type of bullet-modifying effect. Wanted was horrible, and is by far one of the most user-appraised overrated movies of this decade. People need to tune up their movie tastes so movie like Year One, Land of the Lost, and other stupid wannabe blockbusters can lose their ****** directors. That was a stupid comment about this being better than Dark Knight, you have absolutely no taste in a good movie. Enjoy a movie, but when it comes to rating them via story and analyzing the plot, please don't tell people that Wanted is better than the Dark Knight. No flippin' way. 1/5 stars - not worth seeing. Almost as bad as Indiana 4, but not really because Indiana kingdom of the directors-lost-talent is the worst movie of the century. Full Review

This was a joke.. Written by a comic book geek and acted by an actress whose actions off camera are no better then a high priced call girl.

this movie was great! The role angelina plays as the only girl in the Fraternity is really empowering and when she asks westely why he is there and beats him up, its really awesome. the roles that ang... elina plays shows people that women aren't weak fragile things, plus there is the perfect amount of action and intelligence. it makes you think and the end refers very much to the beginning and connecting prior knowledge. i give it 5 stars Full Review

This over-the-top, ultraviolent, hyperkinetic action thriller pretty much has it all.Full Review

Michael Rechtshaffen
The Hollywood Reporter

Like it or not, Wanted pretty much slams you to the back of your chair from the outset and scarcely lets up for the duration.Full Review

Todd McCarthy
Variety

The way to enjoy this film is to put your logic on hold, along with any higher sensitivities that might be vulnerable and immerse yourself as if in a video game.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Brutal, sexy, built to thrill and minus a scintilla of redeeming social value, the movie -- based on a series of comic books by Mark Millar and J.G. Jones -- explodes like summer fireworks.Full Review

Peter Travers
Rolling Stone

Best of all, there's a lot of Jolie, barrels blazing. The star's fearlessly sexy hauteur is unique in the biz today. And when she works it in Wanted, she kills, bullets optional.Full Review
