It's made for fans of films that really just want to see some great visuals, some amazing sequences and some terrific performances.

Because none of Kubricks films had great visuals, amazing sequences and terrific performances. Roeper talks like someone who is in a room of people who will beat him up if he uses the words, "easily amused". I do want to be clear, though; if someone wants to pay me to shill for movies, I can write stuff that isn't so obvious about it. Just send me an email. I'm affordable.

Interesting Opinion on the Review Vosh, to some degree i have to agree, but i enjoyed the movie, it IS what it set out to be, a mindless action movie, nothing more.

It is jsut enjoyable to watch, thus i was "easily amused" by it.

What does Kubrick have to do with this? this is a summer movie, not a great movie and it wasnt tryin g to be that. Thats why it great and you brining up Kubrick in such a random fashion doesnt make you smart. just an FYI

Wanted is not a "great" film. But its definalty more than a solid summer action movie

The actors do their jobs, and the script gives you just the right about of context for some of coolest action scenes since the Matrix.

They are plenty of bad movies in this genre :see Jumper, Charlies Angel or Hitman

This isn't on of them. Its a good time at the theatre, much like Grindhouse, Sin city and 300 are

It's meant to absurd. It realized its own goofiness.

The graphic novel was way more absurd. Why I found this movie disappointing
