Wanted Review
5/10
Wanted tries oh so hard to be the next Matrix, but despite insane amounts of action, falls short.

This movie is definitely style over substance epitomized. I am no Mark Millar fan, and this comic book in particular has his worst tropes on full display, but the premise itself was so simple, being a world where the villains won and were pulling the strings. Instead the movie opts to make it a more convoluted mess of an ancient assassin order, which both feels unimaginative, yet too complex with how they present it. The absurd visuals are this movie's single saving grace.
