Wanted
Plasticity:
I think you are wrong buddy, but that is just me. I didn't really go into this looking for "over the top action" I just wanted a movie where shit blew up and other things were bad ass. And since the story was based on a comic book in the first place, I think having some people be notably more badass than others worked perfectly. Plus, the fact that the heroes killed people completely indiscriminately appeals to me. I mean, look what they did on the train.

I think this is my problem. I was expecting it to be over-the-top, and it underdelivered. With most of the other action fare, like John Woo's earlier stuff, I was just expecting shit to blow up, and it overwhelmed me.

I took a girl out to see it like...two or three days ago (she didn't want to see Wall-E for some strange reason. My major problem with it was the ending. The last like...5-10 seconds. When I go to see a film I don't like being insulted, I'm there to be entertained. The trailers on TV keep saying "the best action film since the matrix" and after I came out of it I was like "meh, it was ok." There were certainly some cool bullet stuff, especially when they collided. Personally I think that the whole "Curving the Bullet" thing is an amazing new idea for action movies but this film made it seem a little lame. The rats were totally stupid and so is the name "The Fraternity." Worst name for a group of assassins ever. The storyline is absolutely terrible, I pretty much had guessed the entire storyline by the time Morgan Freeman was introduced. But honestly, seeing Angelina Jolie's ass for a second was totally worth it.
Tom:
Jolie still has an arse
Blue Kitty:
Saw it tonight, actually pretty good. Not on par with other movies like Wall E, or even other comic book movies like Hulk or Iron Man, but still pretty dang good for what it is supposed to be.
Better then Shoot Em Up.
