I wanted to go see Will Smith... the wife wanted Angelina Jolie... who can argue with that? Give the wife what she wants!

The movie was pretty good... I was expecting to be disappointed, but I actually really liked it. Towards the end (last 15-20 minutes) I kept thinking, "okay, this is how it ends" then WAIT! Something else happens... then I think it's over, but wait! Another twist!

I'd recommend it. Language not suitable for 12 year olds, so some of you may have to have your parents preview it first. Plenty of slashing, fighting, shooting to go around.

I saw Wanted 2 weekends ago, and Hancock this past weekend. Both were great movies!

This weekend coming up, its Dark Knight at IMAX, and Hellboy 2.

Then NEXT weekend, its Step Brothers (Will Ferrel movie).

Wow - I hadn't really cared to see Dark Knight, I was going to wait for DVD or Redbox... but if it's an IMAX then I might have to catch it there. I saw the last Matrix movie on IMAX and was blown away

Saw it this weekend too... liked it a lot. I equate it to Fight Club meets Matrix (in a good way). Overall a B. Would have been a B+, but there was one scene that really erked me. As not to spoil anything for those who haven't seen it, I was annoyed that a certain explosion (the BIG one) was caused by something(s) that didn't seem like it could cause that big of a fireball, and then once it was over, nothing had been charred for the following scenes... not even any burnt paper that littered the floor in the scene moments later... Even the Repair Man in the next scene was completely unscathed by the fireball that he was in the middle of...

For some reason, that scene bugged the hell out of me!

yeah, I sort of agree with Phorq... for something that appeared to be a potential huge climax of an already amazing film, the climax fell a little short. The rest of the film was totally worth seeing though, so that scene didn't affect it too much for me
