WANTED - OPENING JUNE 27TH

Based upon Mark Millar's explosive graphic novel series and helmed by the stunning visualist director Timur Bekmambetov--creator of the most successful Russian film franchise in history, the "Night Watch" series--"Wanted" tells the story of one invisible drone's transformation into a dark avenger. In 2008, the world will be introduced to a superhero for a new millennium: Wesley Gibson.

25-year-old account manager Wes (James McAvoy) was the most pathetic, cube-dwelling hypochondriac the planet had ever known. His boss chewed him out hourly, his girlfriend cheated on him daily and his life plodded on interminably. Everyone was certain this weakling would never amount to anything. There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die a slow, clock-punching death.

Until he became Wanted.

Reviews

Latest Review Additions:
  
Quid Pro Quo Review

An outsider adventure strictly for the very open-minded, presenting the numbness of paralysis, ironically, as a potential source of paroxysms of pleasure


The Love Guru Review

It’s Mike Myers job to make you laugh, and he fails miserably in what might not be the best performance of his career, but it’s certainly his worst.


DVD REVIEW | Be Kind, Rewind(in Film)

Be Kind, Rewind fails to measure up to expectations. The poorly-executed recreations of familiar scenes from hit films simply fall flat

 

Brick Lane(in Film)

The movie is likely to resonate best with closet feminists inclined to question the constraints of orthodox Islam.

 

The Happening(in Film)

The Happening is beset by a number of glaring flaws. First, the acting is atrocious

 

The Incredible Hulk(in Film)

Between its uncomplicated plot and high-impact action sequences, this kid-friendly adventure is a perfect summer blockbuster

 

The Strangers(in Film)

This reminded me a lot of the recent movie “Funny Games” because of the lack of plot, unnecessary amounts of blood, and long scenes of what was supposed to be “suspense”.

 

Jumper DVD(in Film)

The worst sci-fi concept since The Adventures of Pluto Nash placed Eddie Murphy on the moon.

 

The Bucket List DVD (in Film)

A feelgood, end-of-life flick that transcends its sobering subject-matter to miraculously buoy one’s spirits.
