I could've been harder on WANTED. Or I could've simply quoted the director (via this L.A. Weekly interview):
Bekmambetov, who’s based in Moscow, talked to a lot of young Americans like Wesley about their situations and their dreams. "Unfortunately," he says, laughing, "their imaginations are very bloody, very violent. They don’t say so, because people never say what they think, but there’s a lot of aggression and anger. But I like this generation, they’re very smart, and I’m very sorry that they are spending their lives in such predictable ways."
