Movie Review: Wanted
Basic plot: A young man finds himself in a query as he tries to find his identity. He’s at a stage in life where he doesn’t know what his purpose is, until he comes across a secret organization of assassins. He has to face multiple tasks to meet the organizations goals, and on the way, he discovers who he really is.
If you’re ever looking for a good action packed film, I’m sure this movie could meet your needs. It stars Angelina Jolie, some new guy I’ve never heard of, and Morgan Freeman. It was kind of a shame because I’ve always pictured Morgan Freeman as being God from Bruce Almighty, but in this movie, his role certainly gives the plot a definite twist. Jolie’s character is pretty much the same as all of her other roles she’s ever played. I think it’s funny how most characters that she’s played usually are cold hearted, or completely serious. I don’t really know that many movies where she plays some one who’s not all about being strictly business.
Also, the movie consists a bit of violence, and some sexual content, so if you’re not in the mood for that, I probably wouldn’t suggest it. But the positive is that it gives you a completely different outlook on why people do what they do, in this case it would be the job of an assassin. I still find it repulsive that people would do it, but I guess I have to keep in mind that it is still just a movie.

Overall the movie was entertaining, and there are some pretty comical parts as well. I wouldn't classify it as a comedy but there was some good humor in it. As a rating i give it 3 of 5 stars.
