Wanted/Control review by Fussbett 07/04/2008, 2:08pm PDT
I'm going to temper my Wanted review with a review of Control to show any new readers (haha) that I'm not some kind of cinema simpleton. I see the serious films too.



First up is a movie about a young man who's sick of his life, his girlfriend and his dead end office job. He meets up with a group of exciting professionals who help the troubled prescription drug-taker open the door to a new life. The other movie stars Angelina Jolie as one of the people from the Matrix. The big new gimmick in addition to BulletTime™ is that the assassins can all put English spin onto the bullets, which I welcome into video game clichés with open arms. Max Payne 3 should be great. The other gimmick is that it's shot in black and white and features music by Joy Division. Only one of those two features should cross into video games and you picked incorrectly, Saboteur. The first half was unexpectedly all about the Office Space/Fight Club cubicle life of a nobody which was a nice surprise for a dumb action movie. Unfortunately we aren't given much insight into Joy Division, as the movie focuses solely on Ian Curtis, which was a let down for me. However, this shouldn't have come as a surprise as it's based on the biography written by Ian's widow. Chicks aren't allow at band practice! Curiously, it was hard to see why Ian loved her at all, since she portrayed herself as doing nothing and being nothing. Meanwhile, Anglie Jolie is still really hot, everyone. If Ian Curtis was married to Angelina, he'd be researching longevity, not hanging himself on clothes lines.

There was a very embarrassing '80s training montage, and the other movie stops in 1980. An important character commits suicide at the end, and in the other movie Ian Curtis kills himself as we all know. We will have to wait a couple of years to see if Wanted 2 will be as good as a New Order biopic.
