IMDB
A young man stuck in a dead end office job, with a best friend who is fucking his girlfriend, finds out that he's the son of an assassin. He's picked up by an assassin fraternity and trained to kill the man who killed his father. After he kills him he learns that he actually killed his father. Now he's out to get the fraternity.
Wanted is a completely over the top action movie in the vein of Shoot 'em Up, but less tongue in cheek. I love over the top action, and I loved this movie. The gun fights are excellent and numerous. The gore is strong in parts. I'm so glad that crazy action movies are coming back.
9/10
