WANTED

Just came home from the "Wanted" premiere at Gateway.

Seeing Angelina Jolie wield a kick-ass gun again was very refreshing. She was born to play this kind of role, as in.

How was the movie? well it's a blockbuster. so it's BIG in almost everything. Highly entertaining, in a I-really-wish-I-could-curve-a-bullet kind of way.

My sister said that the script was kinda cheezy at some parts--well yeah. and that some of the scenes were just way too fantastic (but they were cool nonetheless)...but I'll let it slide because

Wanted, the film sends out a message:

Take control of your life.

It was a bit too "out" there especially the last line at the end (it could've been subtler). But heyyy I like the message.

Cause like Wesley Gibson, I felt like that at some point, that "robot" feeling, the repetitiveness, the fading-away-into-oblivion-feeling, bored-shitless-bagboy on a supermarket mien...I don't know maybe I still am. But I believe its just a phase, it must be a phase, you know, it just has to be.

I totally get it. I understand how it is to be (just) waiting for something to happen.

And while watching the film a part of me wished for an Angelina Jolie to tell me that I am somebody totally not myself.That I am destined for bigger things. But the thing is that's not how it works (I know, duh) but the film allowed me to escape in unreality...see jedi curve that bullet. So I guess that's why I liked the film.

So I'll try to do that.

I'll load my gun, then shoot.

load it again, then shoot.

load it again, then shoot.

Till I hit something.
