Wanted [Blu-ray] Summary Universal Pictures Wanted (blu-ray)loosely Based On The Comic Book Miniseries Of The Same By Mark Millar And J.g. Jones, Wanted, Directed By Timur Bekmambetov, Follows Anxiety-prone Office Drone Wesley Gibson (jamesmcavoy) As He Is Inducted Into The Fraternity, A Clan Of Powerful Killers That Counted His Father As A Member. Pursued By Rogue Agent Cross (thomas Kretschmann), Wesley Is Trained By The Sleek, Sexy Fox (angelina Jolie) And The Charismatic Sloan (morgan Freeman), Among Others, To Be Just As Proficient And Deadly As His Father. Once Wesley Becomes A Master Assassin, He Must Confront Cross, And Contend With The Stunning Ramifications Of That Encounter.

As the impresario behind gravity-defying Russian blockbuster Night Watch, it's inevitable that Hollywood would come calling for Timur Bekmambetov. With a studio budget and an international cast, including two Oscar winners, Timur cooks up a Hong Kong-styled actioner bursting with fast cars and big guns. Our unlikely hero is mild-mannered Chicago accountant Wesley Gibson (Atonement's James McAvoy), whose father died when he was a tot. Wesley never learned to stand up for himself, and his girlfriend, boss, and best buddy all take advantage until the seductive Fox (Angelina Jolie) rescues him from a sharpshooter named Cross (The Pianist’s Thomas Kretschmann). After which, she whisks him away to a mansion on the edge of town to meet the other members of the Fraternity, where leader Sloan (Morgan Freeman) informs Wesley that Cross, a rogue agent, executed his father. Sloan believes Wesley has the goods to take him out, so he undergoes the Fraternity's brutal training regimen (Marc Warren and Common dish up some of the abuse). When he's ready, Sloan sends him out to fulfill his duty, but matters become complicated when Wesley finds out someone isn't telling the truth, leading our former milquetoast to exact an elaborate revenge. For those who've been following McAvoy's career to date, Wanted will surely come as a surprise. In adapting Mark Millar's comic series, Timur offers buckets of blood and a smidgen of depth, but fans of The Matrix and Mr. and Mrs. Smith will want to give this one a look. --Kathleen C.
