Assassination Central
Director Timur Bekmambetov has developed a reputation for gore. Known for his vampire franchise Nochnoy Dozor, his first stake-less stab into English films, Wanted, is a wall-to-wall bloodbath juxtaposed with artistic cinematography. Young account manager Wesley Gibson ( James McAvoy) is a push-over, bullied by his boss, cheated on by his girlfriend. In the midst of his prematurely depressing life he meets Fox (Angelina Jolie), who tells him that his father was murdered and, incidentally, was a member of a league of assassins called "The Fraternity." For his protection, Gibson is inducted into the league and into a battle for his life.
