Movie: Wanted

Check out a bit of a plot summary for this movie Wanted:

25-year-old Wes (James McAvoy) was the most disaffected, cube-dwelling drone the planet had ever known. His boss chewed him out hourly, his girlfriend ignored him routinely and his life plodded on interminably. Everyone was certain this disengaged slacker would amount to nothing. There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die in his slow, clock-punching rut. Until he met a woman named Fox (Angelina Jolie). After his estranged father is murdered, the deadly sexy Fox recruits Wes into the Fraternity, a secret society that trains Wes to avenge his dad’s death by unlocking his dormant powers. As she teaches him how to develop lightning-quick reflexes and phenomenal agility, Wes discovers this team lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: carry out the death orders given by fate itself.

Nobody hopes this movie is good more than I do. If you watch the linked preview, complete with McAvoy’s tennis-forehand bullet-curving oh-my-god how-awesome is-that scene, you’ll understand why I have such high hopes. Hard to make any more guesses about the movie for now.
