Be SMART, not WANTED

Received this sms from Mr. SplitFire,
"Watched Wanted already?? Damn! You've gotto watch it! Damn COOL YENG!! You've gotta blog about it!!"
(Something along those lines lah~ =.=" XP)

So...
I've watched it..
And here are my comments on it.



ONE word.

COOL.

Period.
That's it.
That's ALL.

Cool BUT shallow...
(Okok... that ain't exactly ONE word already... =.=" XP)

Okok...
I know what you guys are saying...
How bout all the other movies you've blogged about?
Aren't they SHALLOW as well???
Especially those Superhero movies???
*Ahem*IronMan*Ahem*???

Ok..
Let me justify myself.

First of all.
In comparison to the other movies,
This movie is trying too hard to make a story!
Though it did convey certain DEEPER meanings and values,
which I will talk more about later on,
It didn't really stand out, nor did it make any real impact.
Unlike the other movies, especially superhero movies,
They (the superhero movies) gave us what we WANT - the Superheroes themselves!

2nd,
In relation to the first point,
After watching the trailer,
With that jaw dropping, FREAKISHLY cool literally-sweep-you-off-your-feet car stunt,
and all that bullet bending sh*t,
We were expecting MORE MUCH MUCH MORE COOLER STUFF!
Turns out,
almost ALL the GOOD STUFF is already on the Trailer. =.="
We wanted MORE COOLER STUFF,
which the trailer indirectly stirring up our appetites for some much more Jaw dropping action and stunts,
The real thing failed to deliver so.

3rd,
The entire story line is somewhat like that of JUMPER!!
(Remember that movie i reviewed? If not, look back HERE)

Very loose and shallow storyline,
All emphasis on ACTION, but still trying to deliver some sort of reason and meaning to it, and failing miserably.
They minus well just cut all the crap and get to the point! - the ACTION itself! =.="

And just like Jumper,
Wanted literally left me with,
"What? That's it? It's finished already?? Lansung no FEEL..." =.="


...

Okok...
here are SOME of the GOOD POINTS of this movie.
like I said before.
COOL.
That's IT.

I'll admit,
This movie boasts a BEVY of SUPER COOL, super AWESOME, super INCREDIBLE action and visual stunts.
From it's own original, mind boggling, totally OFF-THE-ROOF-COOL bullet bending,
to SUPER illogical but no doubt ULTRA YENG car stunts.
Not to mention, the GIGA-TERA-HYPER-Long range sniper shots... =.=" XP
Mostly very very very MATRIX inspired.
Almost ALL are that of the SLOW-MO action made SUPER famous by the Matrix trilogy.


And now...
About the HIDDEN, DEEPER meaning to the movie...

I feel the story try to convey a meaning, tell us to TAKE CONTROL OF OUR OWN LIVES.
Don't let so-called "FATE" drag you along, anywhere, be it we like it or not,
Cause ultimately, that's not what we want for ourselves.
Take the main character for example,

*ALERT!!*
*MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD*

When the main character (Wesley) leaves for the headquarters of the Assassin's Guild - The Fraternity, he looks back behind the car, looking at the bridge to where he used to live slowly being lifted.
I FEEL (I don't know what it really meant, or if it even meant anything at all) that it meant him leaving behind his "OLD LIFE" of as "DULL" "accounts manager", to be a
"GLAMOROUS" "assassin".

And as for that thingy which decides who the Fraternity should assassinate next,It's, of course, a symbol of FATE itself - which, could, and was later manipulated by a human.
Symbolizing that we shouldn't leave LIFE to FATE, but TAKE CONTROL, make our CHOICES, be DECISIVE, and STAND FIRM on WHAT WE BELIEVE IN.
Best said in the last line of the movie, where Wesley says,

"This is me, taking control of my life...
What the f*ck have you done lately?"

I hope it ain't just me...
Cause if it is,
I might have just make myself sound very VERY "philosophical"... =.=" XP



O!
ONE MORE THING!
ANGELINA JOLIE!
ANGELINA JOLIE!!
ANGELINA JOLIE!!!
The whole freaking movie revolves around her! =.="
I mean, just search online for pics and stills of the movie,
70%-80% of the pics are of her!! =.="
C'mon man!
At least gimme some of that bullet bending sh*T!!! =.=" XP

Just take a look at all her GLAMOROUS pics from the movie...

I know, why all the same scene? CAUSE THESE PICS ARE THE MOST available!! =.="
I bet Mr. McAvoy got plenty of pretty nice PEEKS from these scenes though~ =.=" XP

Btw, I do actually really think she's HOT in this movie too anyway!
REALLY EVAPORATING-STEAMING-HOT!!! XP
And I mean it LITERALLY! :D XP

Showing off her SEXY BACK
And her famous TATTOOS.
Their real, if you didn't know. =.=" XP
13 known currently.

Okay okay...
Enough of Angelina Jolie.
Here are the miserably few OTHER pics from the Movie that didn't have her in it... =.=" XP

One of the ILLOGICAL action scenes...
But no doubt, still a LITTLE cool~ =.=" XP

So,
My verdict on this movie??
I'd say:But, for you guys, like many others on the net and those critics who, astonishingly, reviewed this movie with good comments, and those who liked the movie Jumper, you guys may just like this movie.
Though I'd really don't know how and why. =.=" XP

My advice it to just download acquire this movie by some FREE means and don't bother watching this movie in the cinemas.
Throw out all logic and reasoning, only expect to be purely entertained with PURE "no-brainer" action and visuals, and you may just enjoy this movie fairly enough.
And if you're like Mr.SplitFire, who thinks YENG-ness precedes story, (YENG>Story), by all means, watch this movie, and you'll be BLOWN AWAY. :) XP

Personally,
I feel the action and COOL-ness alone isn't worth your RM7 or more... ;) =.=" XP





Now on to my 2nd SUMMER-BLOCK-BUSTERS-MARATHON movie for this post,


This movie,
Compared to the former,
Is MUCH MUCH MORE WORTH YOUR MONEY.

Especially if you can catch jokes and fast English english. (Nope, that ain't a typo, I really meant English english, as in, BRITISH english... =.=" XP)

Guys who watch SITCOMS like How I Met Your Mother, and ESPECIALLY, The Big Bang Theory, AND can catch the jokes FAST and ACCURATELY, you guys will DEFINITELY enjoy this movie and all the humor it has to offer. ;D

I watched this movie with my Metro Tabernacle-ite friends,
And we were the ONLY ONES IN the cinema laughing the most!!
The rest of those *cough*slow*cough* Malaysians couldn't catch more than half of the jokes!! =.=" XP
I seriously pity them... =.=" XP hahaha~
Not trying to be cocky or whatever... Just stating that the jokes aren't easy to catch, if you're not used to it... =.=" ;D XP


There isn't much I can say about this movie.
The best is to just get yourselves to the cinema, and get a good laugh yourself! :D


Of course,
To get you guys started,
Here are some peeks into the movie. ;)

Masi Oka of Heroes "Hiro Nakamura" fame
Acting what he acts best, a GEEK / NERD. XP

Dwyane "The Rock" Johnson
Maybe it's about time we got rid of that "middle name" of his... =.=" XP

Siegfried: How do I know you're not from CONTROL?
Maxwell Smart: If I were from CONTROL, you'd already be dead.
Siegfried: If you were from CONTROL, YOU'D already be dead.
Maxwell Smart: Neither of us is dead, so I'm obviously not from CONTROL.
[long pause]
Shtarker: That actually makes sense.
*LOL*ROFL*LMAO*
XP

Apart from Steve Carell's wonderful "dead-pan" humor,
Anne Hathaway's TOTALLY GORGEOUS, PRETTY, and BEAUTIFUL!!!~~ :D XP




SO!
GO and get a good laugh!
Worth it no matter how you download acquire or watch it!! :D XP

Oh,
And btw,
"Get Smart" was originally a 1965 comedy television series! XP





SO...
This is your FNB,
k!ll3r @c3,
wishing all Germany fans, "There's always next time~"
(4 years later... =.=")
(or... maybe... Only 2 more years later? WORLD Cup?? :D =.=" XP)



FERNANDO TORRES!!!
Play like that for LIVERPOOL FC as well!!! XP
