Reviews for Most Wanted
Blandly generic and transparently derivative, pic appears to have been cobbled together from bits and pieces of earlier, better thrillers.
Not only is the screenplay for Most Wanted laughably absurd, but it contains line after line of the worst dialogue available in any film currently on a multiplex screen.
Quite simply, Most Wanted is hack work, from every word of Wayans' screenplay to every exposed frame of David Glenn Hogan's direction.
Aside from a quirky performance by Jon Voight and a couple of well-executed action sequences, there's little to distinguish this Keenen Ivory Wayans production from dozens of other assassination-conspiracy thrillers.
Wayans ... has the physique for action heroics, but he has the soul of a comedian.
