Wanted Movie Review

Tonight we went to see the movie Wanted. I heard it was a good movie and I wasn't really sure what to expect. My wife wanted us to see it, as I actually wanted to see some of the other movies but I've heard what the heck. The movie starts off with the character Wesley who's living in a dead-end job and his wife are sorry that his wife his girlfriend is screwing his best friend and he hates his boss. You really can't figure what to do with his life.

Then the movie switches to some guy who is assassinated.

We switch back to Wesley who still hates his life and somehow ends up getting recruited by a character played by Angelina Jolie. He's than recruited to be an assassin and actually follow in his father's footsteps, who is the person we watched it killed in the beginning.

The movie continues to go on and the premise is really about Wesley getting trained to become an assassin.

Watching Wesley getting trained to be one assassin was actually pretty funny. I enjoyed watching how the different characters trained him and how he reacts to his training. Finally he gets trained and he's done and he's given his assignment. It's some random person that he doesn't know. He questions why he should be killing people.

Angelina Jolie's character convinces him that sometimes you have to do things on faith. The movie continues on and we eventually find out that the person he was told to kill, is actually ends up being his father. I know I'm probably oversimplifying this but I thought the movie was asked a pretty good there was a lot of action we the story was well and basically it goes down to the question about people living in dead-end life less jobs and find a purpose. The last line of the movie is," So what the funk are you doing?", and that's a good question. The question that we all need to ask ourselves or what are we doing, and what we do with our lives.
