One of the best compliments I can ever give to a movie is to see it more than once. For the first time since Iron Man (one of the best movies EVER!), I’ve paid this compliment to a movie.

Truth be told, I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to go see Wanted a third time. I loved it that much.

It’s obvious, right from the first, that this is a very unique movie. The way the scenes are shot is pretty much unlike anything I’ve ever seen. To be honest, at one point when the effects first slowed everything down… waaaaay down… I was kind of taken off guard. I wasn’t sure how I was going to like it. But by the second or third time it happened, I was already buying into whatever the movie wanted to sell me.

James McAvoy was nothing short of perfect in this movie. He’s an amazing actor and is one of the main reasons this movie is as great as it is. After Atonement I was about as excited about James McAvoy as I am toast. Sure, I realized he was talented, but I never saw that something special – the wow factor.

Apparently he was saving it all for Wanted – because he was sitting on WOW from his first scene to his last.

Another WOW factor the film had going on was one of my two favorite modern-day actresses: Miss Angelina Jolie. Ironically, James McAvoy starred with my other favorite actress, Keira Knightley, in Atonement.

Angelina was amazing in this movie. The fact that someone so incredibly beautiful and tiny can make such a believable bad ass is a real tribute to their acting skills. She has never gotten enough attention, in my opinion, for her talent. I guess it’s a curse she has to bear for not being born fugly.

The action, the dialogue, the humor, the music (AMAZING soundtrack), the acting, the casting – I give absolutely everything about this movie an A plus. I can’t wait for the DVD and viewing number 3.
