I loved this film but then, I’ve already gushed about it to you a fair bit. Looking forward to the discussion on the next podcast!
I may have had too high of expectations. I enjoyed “Wanted”, but it wasn’t as good as I expected. The act signified by Fox’s (Angelina) last shot was awesome.
@ ram-janne lol, I just noticed your comments a haiku…excellent, my madness is spreading!
This film would have been so much better, if I could have shut down my logical side of my brain (yes I have one).
@Dale. The last shot was my biggest problem with the film. No matter how fitting the shot, or how cool the effect, I can’t help but listen to the voice in my head screaming “YOU CAN’T DISOBEY THE LAWS OF PHYSICS”. Yes I know the film is full of problems with that, but the final shot….COME ON!
That’s why I prefaced it with ‘the act signified’.
I’m still not sure how you can single out that one thing as a problem. I mean, once you buy into shotting the wings off of flies and heart rates of 400 bpm, you’ve already sold your soul. Not to mention how they get their kill orders!
