Review of Wanted

Wanted (2005)
A Mess.
8 September 2005
0/4 A lot of people compare the show to The Shield. It's not. Really, it's only similarity is that both are about law enforcement. It stops there. Law and Order has just as much in common with this as The Shield.

Cliché plots riddled with ridiculous devices. Most of these involve monumental incompetency--things that you'd PERHAPS excuse meter enforcement officers, but not a supposedly elite task force. The conflicts they face aren't challenging, or at all unique. Basic shake down stuff. And still they struggle. It comes down to the fact that these guys just don't think--at all.

Characters--there's a fat computer geek, a hard ass, a fair and hard captain, a hot Latin guy, a hot girl. Don't need to say anymore.

Everything else--is just as mediocre, from cinematography (lots of time lapse shots), to dialogue. Avoid.
