Wanted
I don't mean to counter what you'll hear from my video critic, but I wasn't as wowed with Wanted.
In the movie, James Mattingly plays an accountant who learns his father is part of a group of highly trained assasins, called The Fraternity.
Once Mattingly's father is killed, Fox, played by Angelina Jolie is sent to protect Mattingly from the same assasin who killed his father, from there Mattingly begins training to become a member of The Fraternity, led by Sloan played by Morgan Freeman.
As many critics believed, that this movie is an absolute marvel, with Matrix like special effects, well I agree the special effects were great, but the movie overall wasn't. The only bright spots I could see was the performances of both Jolie and Mattingly.
To me, Morgan Freeman could do no wrong, until I saw this movie, his performance was very weak, hard to believe coming from such an unbelievable actor.
The story was dull enough that even the "shocking" twist, wasn't so shocking to me.
Overall, as big of a success, as this movie was, in my view it doesn't hold a candle to movies like Ironman or The Dark Knight.
Now check out what my fellow critic thinks.
