Review: ‘Wanted’ 2-Disc Special Edition…

Submitted by Scott on Monday, 1 December 20083 Comments

We raved about ‘Wanted’ after we watched in theaters and it still holds the entertaining aspect as well on DVD, but now you get a few extra features that you didn’t see in theaters.

Here is my review of the movie:

This has to be one of the most entertaining movies since ‘Shoot Em Up’, but this movie was done on a much larger scale. The casting was absolutely flawless… James McAvoy was funny in the humorous scenes, but you could still buy him as a new up and coming bad ass assassin. Oh, and Angelina Jolie was a pure sex kitten! Morgan Freeman turned in a great performance and delivers one of the greatest lines in the movie… “Kill this Mother%&$*er”, it was old school and had perfect execution. The movie stretches itself around a few things that you just have to buy into for the movie, curving bullets, flipping cars, a bath that can heal even the deepest of wounds (knife through the hand) in a matter of hours.

This movie keeps you on the edge of your seat, twists and plows through action craving emotions and leaves no apologies. This movie is like the best one night stand of your life, and when you wake up she is gone never to be heard from again…

Here is what you can expect for the bonus features:

There isn’t a whole lot to the bonus disk, you get an extended scene, a digital copy of the movie(which is awesome if you rock an iPhone or iPod), and a few behind the scene’s features. Its definitely worth a watch if you really dug the movie.

The thing I am disappointed in, is the fact that the sex scene between James McAvoy’s character, and Jolie’s character wasn’t included. If you remember back he mentioned this in an interview and how it was very intimidating for him. Bummer, maybe we will see that in a super delux edition down the road sometime.

All in all you should definitely buy this DVD, or try to WIN A FREE COPY from us…

    It,s been awhile since I’ve seen the movie, but I really liked it. It was very fast paced, filled with plenty of action and a few surprises. I also liked the fact that they filmed in a foreign country. It’s a cheap way to do some traveling.
