He didn't need more training . He just needed to be able to do it. It would have been possible right after the first one, but then that wouldnt be much of a movie.

Yeah my biggest critisism of the movie was that the training did go a bit long, in the comic it was pretty damn short. Just a minor quibble for me though.

what a great, over-the-top, released at the perfect time action flick. i really enjoyed every thing about this movie and wasn't bored for a second. fun as hell and action scenes that have never been done before. a benchmark for all others to come in this genre if you ask me. a hellava good time just had. and after getting the "24" deal, it was a pretty good day.

2 questions...why did i was really hoping they would both do the sequel.

My best guess



Didn't really worry too much about it as it was fun regardless. My only real complaint with the film so far has been some digital blurring in a few scenes, I guess to get all the effects done under budget (cut a few corners).

yeah, i could buy that, but i guess just disappointed and a little saddened.

I don't think there was any reason

Saw it again today and loved it just as much. What a big fun adrenaline rush this one is. It has been a hell of a Summer so far at the movies, and on paper it didnt look that good to me.

This is the biggest plot hole for me. How does she know Sloan didn't manufacture her hit along with his whole team just as a plan B like the movie panned out? It's possible her name never came up as well, it was just Sloan's contingency plan.

Yep had that same "well, maybe" thought too, I didn't give it too much erm.. thought.. though.

I didn't give it that much thought either.

one of the cooler scenes and i hope people caught it...

so quick if you blinked you missed it, but such a cool little touch.

Everyone in our theater caught it; it was kinda hard to miss.

excuse me for living, maybe i should jump off the roof of my house now. goodbye!...no just kidding, still here.

Sorry, it just didn't seem a like "blink and you'll miss it" moment; it held on the letters pretty long in slow motion.

Yeah, it seemed like an obvious gag.

It's in the redband trailer.

Or, the only reason their names came up is because they were following the orders of Sloan who was acting on his OWN INTERESTS and not that of the Loom... I know Fox bought into fate hook line and sinker, but she should have given some pause at the notion that the only reason the team got flagged is because their leader was a total douche.

If The Matrix fucked Locked, Stocked, and Two Smoking Barrels, married a comic book writer, and they had an abortion because it cheated with some guy from the Steven Segal School of Acting.....WANTED would be what is left.

It was a steaming pile of crap. The circling bullet towards the end....the wax thing, how about the train scene? There is suspending belief, and then there is being retarded....this movie encompassed the latter.

Um.... comic book movie? The bullet circling is in keeping with the basic premise of physics for the film (which granted is ridiculous) and the idea of curving bullets was in EVERY trailer I saw for the film. The wax is different from any miracle cure in any movie; how? I guess I just fail to see how anything you've brought up so far made the movie "retarded" or a "Steaming pile of crap." The action scenes were decent, it had more of a plot than ANY other action movie I've seen this year, and the acting was quite good, IMO.

Try it again sober.

This movie was AWESOME. The first hour or so dragged for me and it was kind of confusing and boring, but the last hour got better and the last half hour were one of the best I've ever experienced in a movie. This was the opposite of I Am Legend where the whole movie rocked and then the ending sucked. I'm willing to put up with one hour of boring exposition if it means two or three flicks that mimmick the last hour of this one.

Wow. Did you see the same movie as everyone else? How was the first hour confusing? Average Joe hates his life and finds out his dad is a world renowned assassin who was recently murdered. He decides to avenge his death. Hooks up with the group of assassin's his dad worked for and trains with them. It doesn't get much more straight forward than that.

No action in the first hour? Did you miss the rooftop scene with the half dozen assassin's that were taken out? What about the pharmacy shootout followed by a 10 minute car/chase shootout? Which of course leads to the training which had some action bits.

Now, while I enjoyed I am Legend, it is quite a different film. It is more of a drama with all exposition. It was a slow build and little to no action until the last 20 minutes. I don't see how anyone could compare the two films. They couldn't be any more different.

It was decent and mindless fun, but I'm glad it was free.

The storyline, acting, and action scenes are all ok, but not stellar. So I can't imagine wanting to watch it again. If I want a diverting action-fest there are much better movies to re-watch.

Still, I'm glad I saw it in the theater, fun movie. But forgettable.

I guess confusing in that it was a bit difficult to keep up because of all the quick breaks. I don't really like a lot of cutting back and forth. Also the whole
But all the questions were answered by the end which was great.



The comparison was that I Am Legend was a great MovieRunTime-5 minutes movie experience and one of the best I've ever experienced, and then they ruin the movie in the last five minutes. Wanted is kind of slow in the buildup of the story and the pieces don't make sense fully until the end but it get better and better as it goes along ending phenomenally.

Okay... cool.

Other than seeing a bad drawing of McAvoy and Angelina on a Wanted posted very briefly, I don't understand why this movie was called "Wanted."

There was nothing to imply that the fraternity was Wanted fugitives and I don't think I saw a single police officer or law enforcement agency try to stop them.
