The Scream Queens return to their Kick-Ass vibes, giving their WANTED reaction, recap, commentary, analysis, breakdown, & spoiler review!!

Roxy Striar & Tara Erickson react to and review Wanted (2008), the high-octane action thriller directed by Timur Bekmambetov (Night Watch, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) and based on the graphic novel by Mark Millar. Known for its stylized action and over-the-top set pieces, the film delivers a unique twist on the assassin genre with its signature “curving bullets” and adrenaline-fueled storytelling.
The film follows Wesley Gibson, played by James McAvoy (X-Men: First Class, Split), a frustrated office worker who discovers his estranged father was part of a secret society of assassins known as the Fraternity. Recruited and trained by the deadly Fox, portrayed by Angelina Jolie (Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Maleficent), Wesley is pushed beyond his limits to unlock his hidden abilities and embrace a life of violence. Guiding the organization is Sloan, played by Morgan Freeman (The Dark Knight Trilogy, Se7en), whose mysterious motives become increasingly suspect as Wesley learns more about the Fraternity’s true purpose.
Packed with unforgettable moments—including the explosive train sequence, Wesley’s brutal training montage, and the iconic bullet-bending shootouts—Wanted blends stylized visuals with a darkly comic tone. As Wesley transforms from a powerless everyman into a lethal assassin, the film builds toward a twist-filled finale that challenges everything he’s been taught about fate, control, and free will.
With its bold direction, memorable performances, and inventive action sequences, Wanted remains one of the most distinctive comic book adaptations of the late 2000s.
