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.
