Saw an advanced screening of wanted yesterday (trailer below) and it was beautiful.
It hasn't been getting great reviews, so I went with the mind set lots of stupid gunplay with not much story. But hey i'm a bloke thats what i like :o).
From the opening sequence, where a guy jumps from one skyscraper to another whilst taking out 5 assassins in one swoop, I sat in the cinema with a massive smile on my face.
It has over the top gun fights, with some very nice slowmo set pieces, (In one James Mcavoy shots someone whilst flipping his car and he says im sorry all in slomo. I laughed my ass off when he said iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm soooooooooooooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrry in slowmo as he shot the guy.) It also has a good story and plot twist. Nothing to major and i'm sure you'll all guess it like I when when your watching it, but it was just all round fun. The end fight where he takes out at leats 40 people in a factory is just heaven. I know
kyu_diary will love it. In one instance he kicks a gun out of a guys hand jumps in the air catches it and as he is landing shots a guy in the eye. You might think it stops there. He then continues to take down 5 guys whilst the gun is still in (well call him dave) daves eye. The girl in front of me was about to be sick, and i got strange looks as i clapped and cheered him shouting 'go on son you show them who's boss'. He def shows them who is boss :o)
Everyone will enjoy this film, as long as you don't expect to find out the meaning of life from it, and see it for what it is, stupid with over the top slomo gunfights.
