Fantastic!

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Pre Wanted Salman Khan gave a series of flops when he either did comic roles or romantic roles, post PARTNER Salman's films like Yuvvraj, God Tussi Great Ho, Heroes flopped at the B.O. Post Ghajini which was an official South Remake again there was a craze for South remakes and hence Prabhu Devaa remade Telugu superhit Pokiri which had Mahesh Babu in the lead.It was also remade in Tamil What do I say of this film? Well Salman reprises his Radhe Mohan Tere Naam role, incidentaly his name also is Radhe, He hangs around with the same sidekick Sarfaraz Khan In 1 scene he also beats up the same goon from Tere Naam and has the same hairstyle, Tere Naam was also a remake of Tamil film Sethu. The film is almost entirely copied from Pokiri, just a few changes done to suit Hindi Cinema. Don't look for logic, but the preclimax does an about turn and leaves several loopholes like why Vinod Khanna always detested Salman before ? There's no proper flow in the story, In fact no continuity Salman's hairstyles too keep changing throughout The comedy involving Manoj Pahwa is terribleDirection by Prabhu Devaa is good in parts but the writing isn't strong enough Music by Sajid Wajid is typical, Love Me was a hit song those days, Most songs look like South reproductions however Dil Leke is the best song and also LeLe Le Mazaa LeSalman Khan looks fresher in many scenes unlike those days, his acting is okay though compared to Mahesh Babu he lacks behind but then Salman's fans like to see him in this avtar Ayesha Takia got her first bollywood hit, actingwise she is alright This film was a turning point for South talented Prakash Raj who got immense praise though he just did the same from Pokiri. He kept doing similar roles post this film, he is superb Amongst rest Mahek who was earlier seen in Nayee Padosan tries hard, Inder Kumar is okay, Sarfaraz Khan hardly gets scope, Vinod Khanna is nothing great Mahesh Manjerekar is okay, Manoj Pahwa annoys

Wanted directed by Prabhu Deva is an entertaining movie which presents Salman Khan,never-like before.Wanted is very high on entertainment but unfortunately low on providing a good story.Story: Mumbai-based middle-classed Jhanvi (Ayesha Takia), who lives with her widowed mother and younger brother, has three suitors. The first is much older and considerably overweight - Sonu Gates (Manoj Pahwa). The second is Police Inspector Talpade (Mahesh Manjrekar), who is already married to Nandini, but lusts after Jhanvi so much so that he creates circumstances that will force her to marry him. The third is a male named Radhey (Salman Khan) - who often comes to her rescue - but breaks her heart when she finds out who is really is - a cold-blooded killer who works for a gangster named Gani Don (Prakash Raj). The later is a ruthless gangster who challenges Police Commissioner Ashraf Taufeeq Khan (Govind Namdeo) with impunity, and even abducts his daughter to ensure his personal safety.The story is basic so even the twists and turns will not be a shocker to you.But still apart from story,WANTED works for its high-octane action,unlimited entertainment and Salman Khan.The direction is fine.Performances: Salman Khan is excellent.Ayesha Takia is cute.Mahesh Manjrekar is first-rate.Prakash Raj is superb.Manoj Pahwa fails to provide any laughs.All in all,WANTED must be watched only for Salman Khan and for nothing else.I am giving it a six on ten.Strictly recommended for fans of Salman Khan.

I gave this film 2, because of the actress Ayesha Takia and Mahesh Manjrekar as a corrupt cop, they are the 2 constant in this appalling movie. She's really beautiful, and as a villain Manjrekar pulls it off again. I read somewhere that this is a "superhit" if it is, Bollywood is not heading in the right direction. The story line, is relegated in the background for Salman Khan (who looks really old by the way) to beat and kill everyone he can, and flex his muscles. This could have been such a good film compared to the likes of The Departed or Infernal Affairs, but sadly it's not. I read in one of the user comments someone comparing this to Ghajini, Ghajini although based on Memento actually had a proper story, and not just scenes put together for the sake of the main star. Truly a waste of time.

It's good news for the real Bollywood fans, the common man, living out of the metros in small cities, towns and villages. Salman Khan brings back to them their good old action cinema with the same punches and enthusiasm which got lost in the new age glossy kind of movies in the recent years. The angry young man is back on the screen bashing all the bad men real hard. And it was indeed a lot of fun and relief to see a true Bollywood kind of movie after a long time stuffed with our own trademark action, fights, love, dance and songs.Remake of "Pokiri" already made in Telugu and Tamil, "Wanted" starts off normally with a mention of Mumbai underworld nexus and a newly appointed honest Police Commissioner in the town. Salman Khan makes a routine entry as the usual filmy action hero who works for the underworld dons and is known for his killer instincts and attitude. After a few slow initial moments, the movie starts growing on you gradually and holds a strong grip over the viewer till the intermission. Especially the confronting scene at the basket ball court between Salman and Mahesh Manjrekar sets the mood in and you start enjoying the movie from there on.The explosive second half is a real treat for the action lovers where Salman beats and kills uncountable men left and right with a great confidence. Here you witness the good old cinema of Bollywood Heroism back on screen where the Macho Man is hitting more than 20 men on the screen among the loud roar of claps and shouts from the audiences. Later we even have a suspense element added towards the climax which though is predictable but still adds more spirit to the highly violent fight sequence in the end.Salman shows great attitude in his highly brutal act and also looks very cool in his casual shirts & denims. His emotional scenes with Ayesha Takia are equally convincing and enjoyable. Thinking about his amazing action scenes in the movie, you just cannot imagine anyone else doing more justice to the role other than Salman himself. Here, I would also like to mention, one highly appreciable scene in the movie where Salman Khan strongly criticizes his close friend for eating "Gutka". That was indeed a very commendable effort from the actor to save many lives from this highly famous killing habit in the youth today.Ayesha as the leading lady unexpectedly gives a spirited performance in the movie and is not just there for adding glamour. Mahesh Manjrekar, as the corrupt cop, deserves a special mention for his scenes providing the right momentum to the movie. Govind Namdeo suits the role of Police Chief perfectly but Vinod Khanna is completely wasted in an unimportant role. Mahek Chahal is there as the vamp and Manoj Pahwa tries to make you laugh with his not so entertaining getup.Sajid Wajid come up with a couple of good numbers enjoyable on the screen (with a special appearance of Govinda & Anil Kapoor), otherwise the movie could easily do without so many songs. Action is the main asset of the movie, getting the much needed support from its Cinematographer. Story wise, "Wanted" has nothing new to offer, but after a long time, Indian Common Man gets a pure MASALA Movie to enjoy on the lines of highly successful action movies released a few decades back. I would even like to rate "Wanted" better than "Ghajini" since it does not take help of any additional (memory) gimmicks added deliberately in the script.Surprisingly, this hardcore action movie comes from the director "Prabhu Deva" who is more famous in Hindi Cinema for his amazing dance movements. And quite unpredictably, he delivers a highly entertaining flick especially for the single screen theater viewers, who simply love Bollywood movies as one of the most important passions of their lives. The critiques may find it over the top and the thinking viewer may take it as a routine flick with a weak script. But if you are not among any of these, then just go for this engaging action drama and enjoy the three hours in the dark with your friends. It's pure Bollywood for the masses, coming back to the silver screen after a long time. At least, it is not a usual inspired movie from the west for a change.In a nutshell, if you loved watching Amitabh in "Deewar" & Sunny Deol in "Ghayal", then here is another equally entertaining act by the still young & angry Salman Khan. "Wanted" is undoubtedly among his most hard hitting and enjoyable movies till date with a different Salman altogether as never seen before. So, just go for it now and have a great time with him.
