With
non-stop
adrenalin
pumped
into
the
every
frame
of
the
movie,
Wanted
is
an
action
thriller
that
combines
Matrix's
special
effects
with
the
blood
and
gore
of
any
fast
paced
action
flick.
The
protagonist
of
the
movie
is
Wesley
Gibson
(James
McAvoy),
a
loser
in
love
and
life.
His
girlfriend
is
sleeping
with
his
best
friend
and
his
boss
uses
every
opportunity
to
humiliate
him.
But
his
life
takes
a
drastic
turn
when
he
comes
in
contact
with
femme
fatale
Fox
(Angelina
Jolie)
who
introduces
him
to
The
Fraternity
led
by
Sloan
(Morgan
Freeman).
Here
Wesley
learns
the
biggest
secret
of
his
existence-
his
father
was
a
part
of
The
Fraternity,
an
organisation
of
assassins,
a
group
that
takes
orders
from
a
weaver's
loom!
Yes
you
read
that
right,
a
weaver's
loom.
Based
on
the
patterns
made
by
loom,
Sloan
deciphers
a
binary
code
to
reveal
the
names
of
the
prospective
victims.
The
members
of
the
Fraternity
believe
that
eliminating
these
people
will
maintain
the
order
in
the
chaotic
world.
According
to
Sloan
this
practice
has
been
followed
for
hundreds
of
years.
When
Wesley
joins
this
group
he
discovers
for
the
first
time
a
sense
of
control
of
his
life.
Sloan
gives
him
not
only
financial
power
and
confidence,
but
also
a
purpose-
to
take
revenge
from
Cross,
the
man
who
killed
his
father.
To
become
a
part
of
the
Fraternity,
Wesley
undergoes
a
hard-core
training
regime-
he
is
tied
to
chair
and
hit
repeated
(so
that
he
can
endure
pain),
he
learns
how
to
use
the
knives
and
swords,
learns
to
control
his
panic
attacks
(which
according
to
Sloan
is
a
genetic
gift
passed
from
father
to
son,
as
these
panic
attacks
increase
adrenalin
in
his
body
and
help
perform
super
human
stunts!)
and
most
of
importantly
he
learns
to
alter
the
path
of
a
bullet,
i.e.
make
a
bullet
turn
a
corner
to
reach
its
target!
Once
he
completes
his
training,
he
is
given
his
assignments
to
kill.
Though
apprehensive
at
first,
Wesley
completes
the
tasks
given
to
him
efficiently
in
the
hope
that
he
will
cross
path
with
Cross
(Thomas
Kretschmann)
and
avenge
his
father's
death.
And
as
fate
would
have
it
that
day
arrives
soon.
He
does
meet
Cross
and
succeeds
in
eliminating
him.
But
Cross'
dying
words
alter
his
life
completely.
What
were
those
words?
What
impact
does
that
have
on
Wesley?
You
have
to
watch
the
movie
to
get
answers
to
these
questions.
James
McAvoy
as
Wesley
tries
his
best
to
portray
the
loser
turned
killer.
He
has
his
moments
in
the
move.
Angelina
Jolie
as
Fox
is
ruthless
and
sexy.
Morgan
Freeman
as
Sloan
is
mean
and
very
convincing.
Though
rest
of
the
cast
has
not
many
lines
to
speak,
they
all
do
their
jobs
well.
Director
Timur
Bekmambetov
has
done
a
great
job.
This
is
his
debut
in
English
and
he
has
put
in
his
all
to
give
justice
to
the
story.
Sadly
it
is
the
story
line
that
disappoints.
Michael
Brandt
and
Derek
Haas
have
tried
adapting
the
comic
book
series
by
Mark
Millar
and
J.G.
Jones,
but
they
digress
from
the
original,
thus
making
the
movie
a
mindless
action
flick.
