Our film industry can no longer boast of producing inimitable superstars. Rajnikanth has been worked upon by Hollywood. Presenting the new age rajni aka Angelina jolie in the mind blowing flick Wanted. After watching this movie his stunts look believable. I mean I can still give a shot to curing brain cancer by putting a bullet through my ear but bending it past a suspended animal with its tongue rolled out is beyond my super human capabilities.
The main characters in this movie are a jackass(our hero) and FOX(rajni jolie). Our jackass is tricked by the Fox’s boss to kill his biological father, by telling him his father is a dead jackass and was a shot by a guy who he needs to kill who is incidentally his father.
Let me not confuse you. The story is about a fraternity of super talented assassins who can clip off bumble bee wings with whizzing bullets. They get emails from god on a spinning yarn about who their target is. But all the emails are being faked by the Faternity’s boss whose name was churned out years ago on the magical yarn. Our hero’s father has discovered this and he is one guy you don’t mess with. So they recruit his son who has no knowledge of his awesomeness or attractiveness to kill his father. He is told his real father has been shot by this Cross guy. But this Cross guy is his real father. He kills him and gets to know. Then predictably he kills the boss.
But I can’t finish my review before telling you the highlights. When people need to heal they go to a hospital but celluloid characters in this movie lie in a pool of wax borrowed from a Buddhist monastery. When people need to blow up things they throw bombs or fly planes into buildings but here they feed TNT to mice and set them loose. Run amock my little ones. Rajni flips his glasses but Jolie flips a bus with a dodge viper then coolly drives off like she’s on a romantic drive in the twilight. Also it has borrowed heavily from kkahani hamari mahabharat, where arrows collide. Here bullets travelling at x mph speed manage to collide, and not by mere coincidence. And the dodge viper is like a real viper it sucks in beings to its unexplainable depths. It really does.
This movie has silly action but has been very stylishly done. It has a decent plot. Good acting and an awesome soundtrack. But leave your sanity at home if you want to go for a watch. Bhai tedhi movie ho to aisee. Rajni’s acting career is over for good. Sob sob.
