I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

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.

Wanted,remake of Pokkiri.Both directed by Prabhu Deva and surprisingly both turned to be a winner at the box office. Wanted turned to be a winner for various reasons-1.)It was released during the Eid period. 2.)The promos were outstanding. 3.)The film was promoted heavily. 4.)The songs were a craze among people. 5.)And the prime reason Salman KhanWanted is a total entertainer.It is loud,it is humorous,it is violent,it is amusing. Prabhu Deva succeeds in making an entertainer. The music is superb. The dialogs are perfect. The action sequences are superb.Performance wise-Salman Khan is revelation.Ayesha Takia is cute.The chemistry between Salman and Ayesha is good.Mahesh Manjrekar is first-rate.Prakash Raj is excellent.Overall Wanted is high on entertainment but lacks story.

The movie itself is a good piece of work. The dialogues are good and so is the script. You have to remember that it is a remake of the Telegu film Pokiri, but i feel it does justice to the original. Nobody could have played the leading role played by mahesh babu in 'pokiri' better than Salman Khan, who the only action hero in bollywood at present. This is the career best for Ayesha Takia, who plays the female lead in this film. Others such as Vinod Khanna, Govind Namdeo and Prakash Raj are also good in the film. The music is also decent. The two tracks that stand out are 'Jalwa' and 'Love me love me'. The dialogues, delivered in typical fashion by Salman Khan, are also good. As an action fan, i really liked it.My verdict: unmissable for Salman and action fans. 9.5/10

When I read the reviews about the film (mostly favorable), I had high expectations about it, and I have to say, I wasn't disappointed. Prabhudeva, the dancing guru, starting his career as a director with a bang.It's all about this hardcore gangster Radhe (Salman Khan), who can just about kill anyone who gets in his way. He is working for Don Gani (Prakash Raj). Later, he meets Jhanvi (Ayesha Takia), and eventually they fall in love with each other. Then, the film takes an unpredictable turn of events, to the climax, which is absolutely amazing.Salman Khan, in his second best performance to date (first being Andaaz Apna Apna), really carries the film on his shoulders with the gangster image. He should really stick to roles like this one. Ayesha Takia does a good job as Jhanvi. Prakash Raj essays the role of Gani Bhai, was OK in the first half as we didn't get to see a lot of him, but does a fantastic job in the second half. Mahesh Manjrekar is good as the corrupt cop. Vinod Khanna is OK, and the guy who play Sonu Gates in the film is brilliant as the comic character.The action is fantastic, being compared to that of Ghajini's, which was fantastic as well. Direction was good, and everything was good.But the biggest let-down was the music. Although some of them pretty catchy (Love me, Love me, Jalwa etc), I felt they weren't really required in the film. The story is OK, so if you are looking for any logic in the film, don't bother showing up. This is an all out action packed film.This should be the best movie of 2009, but will be tough, as there are other really good films like Kaminey and Love aaj kal.
