| I just say a trailer for Wanted. It looks like a pastiche of every silly actioner from the last ten years. The Matrix, Jumper, Bullet Proof Monk, Electra, Kill Bill, Crouching Tiger and many others all seem to be in it. Wanted seems to be taking itself seriously, not tongue in cheek like Kill Bill. It looks terrible, but I have only read the synopsis and seen the two trailers. |

Well, for myself, the comic was a well done piece of depression. If the psychos ruled the world kinda thing. Nah, no thanks.

The first Trailer I saw a long time ago, and the newer trailer looks quite a bit different, maybe there were a lot of reshoots?
I don't think it will be any good. |

I have to agree that this looks like a stinker. "Shoot the wings off the fly" one character says, promting another character to do just that! From then on, it looks like they are serious as a heart attack.

I never bothered to read the comic, and the impression I've gotten is that the movie bears only a vague resemblance to it.
