Wanted (2008) #1: Where fate will decide your destiny.

I didn't see a thread on this movie.

PLOT: Wanted" tells the tale of one apathetic nobody's transformation into an unparalleled enforcer of justice. In 2008, we're introduced to a hero for a new generation: 25 year old employed slacker, WESLEY GIBSON. Wes is the most disaffected, cube-dwelling, clock-punching drone this planet has ever known. His boss chews him out hourly, his girlfriend ignores him routinely, and his life plods on in interminable boredom and routine. Everyone knows this disengaged slacker will amount to absolutely nothing, and so does he, until he meets the sexy, foxy woman named FOX, and then everything changes. Wes' estranged father is murdered, and the deadly Fox recruits him into The Fraternity, a secret society that trains him to avenge his father's death, by unlocking his dormant powers. And oh boy does he have powers, as she teaches Wes how to develop his lightning-quick reflexes and phenomenal agility, he discovers that The Fraternity lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: to carry out the death orders given by emotionless Fate itself. Wes, with his wickedly brilliant and sexy tutor, plus the paternal guidance of The Fraternity's enigmatic leader, SLOAN, young Wes grows to enjoy all the strength and success he ever wanted. But, slowly, he realizes there's more to his dangerous associates than meets the casual eye. And, as he wavers between new found heroism and vengeance, Wes will come to learn what no one can ever teach him; that he alone controls his destiny

James McAvoy ... Wesley Gibson

I also loved the last line of the movie. I thought it was the perfect last line.

Angelina was seriously made to play Fox. Fox was hot. She was kickass. That is Angelina. I loved her in the role.

And James really surprised me. I wasn't sure if he could pull off action dude, but he totally fit the role. And looked mighty fine doing it.

I could have done without the

I like getting to watch movies like this where I don't have to think and get to watch hot people shoot each other and drive fast cars.

Oh! Another little scene I liked was when

I loved that.

That is such a good idea. I am so adding that to my list of references to say all the time. My parents will be so impressed.
