REVIEW FOR..... WANTED

At first I was a little bored with the beginning. A bunch of people working in a large office, they are abused by a rather large female manager who uses the F word all the time, she belittles them and makes them all feel like they are piles of crap under her feet. And no one has the courage to tell her she's a fat, mouthy bitch.

In the movie the hero works in that office and he has this terrible stress thing going on. He's got to take special pills for it. later in the movie we learn that he has this special gift. That when he gets very stressed hi heart rate goes to 400 eats a minute which enables him to think and move faster than most people. Hum, at 400 eats per minute I think one might be dead?

Anyway our hero is convinced, by Jolie, that because of his stress thing, he was born to kill people. There is a secret society called the Fraternity. If you are a member, and they are few,then you are chosen to kill certain peole. The way they get the list of names is by a slice of fabric that has been woven. If you look closely at the fibers there is a secret code which comes out in a binary code. Then when you write it all down, it spells the name of the person who's to be killed.

Our hero has to have the crap beaten out of him to make him realize he has thei special power. Then he goes through trainig and he learns how to manipulate bullets to go around peole, around cornert and so on. (I can see people trying to do this themselves) So he accomplishes this and sets out to do his first kill. He fails his mission because he wants to know what this poor guy did that he has to pay with his life. Eventually he kills his target and goes onto kill others.

In the end there is a huge train wreck and he learns he's the one who killed his father. But before his father dies, he tells his son that the people who trained him were the bad guys. That it was their mission to train the son to kill the father. Once the son learned the truth, he went ballistic and went after Jolie and those responsible, the fraternity.

The ending is pretty cool and I won't spoil it for you. But it's a good movie, full of violence, action, suspense and at times, you'll find your butt at the edge of your seat. There are a few sex scenes, nothing to get your blood pumping.

If you like blood, guts, violence and watching people kill other people in crazy ways, then you'll like this movie.
