WANTED, anyone see it?

Did anyone see WANTED this weekend? I heard it was alright, action scenes were supposed to be cool but the story line was weak.

It wasn't bad. We saw it on opening night. Figured it had some hot bitches with tats, some guns, and was in Chicago so what really could go wrong?? Well, assuming you aren't really looking for a super sweet plot with tons of background details on this fraternity of assassins, the action scenes are pretty well made. It definitely felt similar to Nightwatch, although was devoid of any swords made out of human spines, but entertaining nonetheless. Most of my friends thought the dude went from a little pussy to a bit to badass relatively quick and I would have to agree. The movie would have benefited from a sweet montage with even more Nine Inch Nails (beacuse there is already some on the soundtrack, woot) and maybe a quick little physics class on how you, the viewer, can actually curve bullets around big pieces of meat. I would have enjoyed that part, then made my way to the gun club and got kicked out for trying to whip my body around and try to curve bullets, accidentally shooting someone in the leg.

Anyways, its worth the 7 bucks. Go see it. Maybe you will even feel badass enough after to go beat up some shopping carts behind the local Dominicks like the time after you saw Mortal Kombat when you were 12....
