Cubical dwelling drone Wes’ life was going nowhere. His life was changed when he meet Fox who recruited him into the Fraternity a secret society of assassins, who live by an unbreakable code. Wes is trained by the Fraternity to avenge his father’s death. However, Wes soon discovers that there is more to the Fraternity and its business then meets the eye.

This hip fast paced action film. I would rank Wanted as being one of the better movies that have been adapted from a comic book series. The stylized action of Wanted appears to have been inspired by The Matrix trilogy. While James McAvoy gave a brilliant performance and seemed to work well with Angelina Jolie who had brilliant mysterious on screen presence.
