    "Wanted" is basically from a comic book that has limited series written by Mark Miller and J.G Jones, it is about an amoral protagonist (Wesley Gibson) who is discovered as the heir of super assassin. Russian director, Timur Bekmambetov, he is the cream of the crop, he turns this comic into a movie that make the viewers not sit still and make their adrenaline and cortisone levels spike with the actions.

    I can say Cool Hand Luke the movie was okay at certain points throughout the movie and that I notice that some parts where just bland that I got confused at some points of the movie. The way it started off was from the guy name Luke who was drunk in public cutting/screwing off parking meters that belong to the city government which I know you can get serious jail time for destruction of government property from road signs to anything that belongs to the government. When they took him in for custody, the jail he went to wasn’t an ordinary jail to me it look like one of those jails that be on a farm that makes you do labor around its surroundings, which I notice that they had to cut weeds on the side of the road for miles each day.…
