Based on the comic book series created by Mark Millar and J.G. Jones.
James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie, Terence Stamp.
Wes is 25 years old and is a disaffected, clock-punching drone. His boss chews him out hourly, his girlfriend ignores him routinely, and his life plods on in interminable boredom and routine. Everyone knows Wes will amount to nothing - that is until he meets the sexy woman named Fox, and then everything changes. Wes' estranged father is murdered, and the deadly Fox recruits him into The Fraternity, a secret society that trains him to avenge his father's death, by unlocking his dormant powers. Fox teaches Wes how to develop his lightning-quick reflexes and phenomenal agility. He discovers that The Fraternity lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: to carry out the death orders given by emotionless Fate itself.
DVD, widescreen; Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Love it! submitted by Sonia on July 5, 2011, 6:36pm This movie was so much better than I thought it would be. On the outside it looks like any old assassin movie, but it is intertwined with dark comedy that makes it sooo much better.

Awesome! submitted by jjdijkstra81 on July 27, 2011, 2:04am Loved the action. The way they shot the guns to the side was different and, to me, really cool!

Good submitted by ColeenT on July 29, 2011, 10:05pm Good

Liked it submitted by crazypockets on July 13, 2013, 1:38pm Not the greatest movie ever, but I thought it was ok. I liked James McAvoy in the role.

Nice action scenes submitted by crp on August 12, 2019, 9:21am Worth watching for its ridiculousness and action scenes!

Lots of good actions submitted by yufamily on July 24, 2021, 7:45pm Worthy of watching it a second time.
