After watching the movie trailer on YouTube, I cannot resist the temptation. So I finally went to Kuching Star Cineplex last night to see Wanted. The movie should start at 12.50 AM, but after 12.50 AM we’re still waiting to enter the cinema hall. My friends and I finished the jumbo sized popcorn and the soft drink that I bought earlier and we’re still waiting outside the Hall 2 of the cinema (that shows how long we have waited!).
We’re entered the cinema hall not long after we finished our popcorn and drinks. So I thought the torture ends there, but hell no!! After we enter the cinema hall, the time is 1.00 AM, I expect the movie to start soon, but they showed other movie trailers instead, and another, and another, plus KFC advertisement, plus some more movie trailer… They showed us at least 10 movie trailers before the real movie (Wanted) screening!! What the hell??? To Kuching Star Cineplex, if I want to watch a movie trailers I’ll just watch it on YouTube or TV. I don’t want to spend 30 minutes before the movie start just to watch movie trailers! I don’t want a movie that should start at 12.50 AM to start at 1.30 AM just because of tonnes of movie trailers!
Enough with the Kuching Star Cineplex. Here’s my movie review for Wanted (2008) :
Wanted Exclusive Trailer
- Great intros. A man jumped heroically from one building to another and killed every snipers on that other building while he’s in the air. You will see an introduction to a “Curving Shot” when that man killed one of the sniper with a curving shot.
- Great stunt. From start to the end of this movie you will be fascinated with a mind blowing stunts that will always make you say - “Wow!”.
- Cool weapons. Specially carved bullets and guns? How cool is that?
- Angelina Jolie. Do I need to explain?
- They got their wanted list from a sewing machine?? If that sewing machine is as cool looking as “Lord of The Rings” ring, I don’t mind. But that sewing machine looks like an ordinary sewing machine to me, too ordinary.
- Too many illogical facts. I don’t like the storyline, and I don’t want to explain further to prevent spoilers.
So, what’s good for me are the great intros, great stunts, cool weapons and Angelina Jolie. The bad parts are the sewing machine and too many illogical parts.
Just 7 out of 10 stars for Wanted.
