I loved the office scenes. Especially the beginning scene with the boss's birthday party and the main characters commentary! The best part was when he told her off and then hit the guy who was sleeping with his wife with his keyboard! That was badass.

I read up on the comic series and the film was loosely based off the books, I'm sure that had the fanboys all pissed off.

I'm assuming the rats were just a diversion to catch everyone there off guard, so he could go in and fuck all those guys up.

ETA: Was it also implied that the Russion guy that was in the Fraternity was working with his dad because of the whole rat thing, because his dad has those watch-bombs at his house?

I thought this movie was visually stunning and james macavoy was sex on a stick.

One thing I didn't understand tho.

What was the point of going through the trouble of attaching all those tiny bombs to the thousands of rats and setting them free, if the dude was just gonna jump throuhg the window and start shooting people down by the dozens (awesome scene btw)

Didn't like it that much. Surprised to see that many approvals for it here. The supposed theme of the show was not just trite and nihilistic. It was just plain stupid. In terms of storytelling, it failed horribly. Action bits were okay but not exactly uncommon after The Matrix. Train crash scene was pretty good. Funny how no one referred to the hundreds of innocent people who had to have died in that one.

James McAvoy is my #1. This movie is stupid beautiful. I liked it much better than The Matrix, which it shares certain qualities with but is far less pretentious.

Technically, its possible to curve bullets in the same way one can curve baseballs, if you were so fast and strong (beyond the abilities of most humans) and you had specially made bullets and revolver.

lol @ anyone who went into a movie that had a trailer of curving bullets, people getting swept into cars unharmed, and a league of assassins expecting it to mirror real life or be realistic in any way.

Even though I hated it, I do agree with this statement. Had I...

Wanted will suck. Jolie has never been in a good movie and the stunts scenes on the previews look pretty unbelievable. It will be one of those movies where you just roll your eyes and go, "yeah right" for two hours.

And that's exactly what it was, for me.

Hated it.

Saw it and loved it. Not realistic in any way, but wasn't expecting it to be.

Such a good movie visually. Decent enough storyline for an action movie.

Saw it and loved it - I wanted to go shoot guns and curve bullets afterwards.

Most amazing action movie EVER, besides the fact the wee James McAvoy is stunningly comely, every single shot is beautiful, the action just never stops and I was exhausted half way through. FIVE THUMBS UP!!

I thought I was going to lapse into an action induced blissful coma...

Does every motherfucking movie need its own thread?

Hey, that's a thread!

Saw Wanted with friends, and loved it; saw Wall-E with a borrowed child, and loved it. If I want depressing, I'll rent In the Company of Men.

Wanted is holding up surprisingly well at the box office. They're estimating $62 million for Wall-E and $51 million for Wanted.

I figured it would be more like $75 million for Wall-E and $35 million for Wanted.
