Protector of women, killer of the bad guys, and smokin' hot while doing it! In interviews, Salman Khan has said that films need heroes - the people you cheer for unabashedly in a world where the bad guys always deserve a sound thrashing. This is one of those films, and it's one of my favorites with Salman Khan. It's a slick, sophisticated blend of action, comedy, and romance, and Salman fits it perfectly. He plays an adorable thug (with a secret twist to his character), paired off with the equally adorable Ayesha Takia. The action sequences are stunning, but it's the romantic moments, which range from sweet to laugh-out-loud hilarious, that ultimately make me love the film. Scenes in elevators, trains, and subway platforms highlight the amusing awkwardness of new romance. One might think that Salman Khan is a bit too mature to be playing a "boyfriend" role more appropriate for a 20-year-old, but he pulls it off beautifully through sheer force of charm. The scene in which he and Ayesha argue over a tupperware container of pasta still makes me laugh.

The music of Sajid-Wajid is fantastic, and this is one of the first Hindi action movies that had me noticing the catchiness of the background score in addition to the dance numbers. The first dance sequence ("Mera Jalwa") is jaw-dropping - the choreography is amazing, and Salman has never danced better. Seriously. The dance also features three cameos that will surprise you (if you're familiar with Indian actors). "Dil Leke Darde Dil" is sweetly sexy and rhythmic.

In summary, the action is stunning, the villains are truly villainous, and the romance is sweet. It almost feels like a trial run for the character that Salman would perfect in the following year's "Dabangg".

Cheesy, as most, but oh so good.

I want to start off by saying that Salman Khan is definitely one of my favorite actors of Indian cinema :)
Wanted illustrates violence and murder amongst gang rivals in addition to police corruption. Salman (Radhe) is portrayed as the "bad boy" who basically kills for a living-he's a contract killer. Though there is much violence, there is a shining light of romance. Salman is smitten with a young girl who doesn't understand his lifestyle and way of life, nevertheless she really likes him. The romantic portion of the film in my opinion creates a softer side to Salman's gangster role. While watching Wanted I was making note of the psychological attributes surrounding a gangster/contract killer and love/romance-It makes you wonder if it is possible for a man who has a violent lifestyle to be able to fall in love or show love. Are gangsters capable of maintaining relationships with women? In addition there is a twist to the plot,
(*HINT-Salman (Radhe) isn't really who he says he is) Great movie!! Oh and Salman Khan's body is beautiful!! there is a scene
towards the end where he takes his shirt off-phenomenal!!.

This is Salman Khan at his best ever! He is one cool dude that improves with age and absolutely gorgeous!! His acting was superb and while I wasn't sure the actress that played the heroine was the perfect choice with Salman but somehow it seemed to work after watching it halfway through. Simply love all the song and dance routines in this movie,especially " Jalwa" and "Love Me, Love Me" - Salman might not dance like Hrithik Roshan but he did a superb job with
that body! WANTED has a good story line, basically about a hired assassin(Salman) working amongst the mafias and the corrupt police but with an agenda of his own. Full of action and I think Bollywood had done a surprisingly good action movie for the first time ever.This one is a keeper.

I'm sure the movie is great Bollywood fun. Not that I'd know. When I finally got the package, a 2-disc set, it was missing one disc. It was also advertised as having English subtitles, but didn't. And it skipped. I sent it back for a full refund.

I have a membership with Netflix but they didn't have this movie and it was "unknown" when it would become available through them. I really, really wanted to watch this movie because it marked the beginning streak of some number one hit movies starring Salman Khan in India and so I bought it! I was concerned that maybe I wouldn't like the story but I did. It was actually stunning to me in several places; it could rival a hard hitting Hollywood movie but without the foul language. It also had humor, romance, mystery, intrigue, and awesome song and dance numbers. I definitely recommend buying yourself a copy and watching over and over again. Love Me, Love Me, Love Me; Mama says you love me. Love me baby, love me!

I choose this rating because the dvd rating was coming apart, even though the dvd did not have any problem, shipping did not have any problems.

A different kind of movie for Salman but gotta say I really liked him like this . I felt this was more on the Telegu movie side than Bollywood those are just a bit different that's all. The songs in this were a little different than the usual for him but overall still a really and truly great movie and performance as always .
I would recccomend .

Thank you for getting my movie here so quickly and speedily . This was really awesome and so well packaged along with all my others . .

I usually like the acts of Salman Kahn.
Not with this.

What is the point of filling the screen with violence and blood all over?

4.0 out of 5 stars Gangster enforcer in love
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 27, 2013
This 2009 film is about an underworld enforcer Radhe played by Salman Khan who falls in love with Jhanvi (played by Ayesha Takia) after watching a video of her explaining to a friend about love. There are certain stylised elements like every time he sees her they are seen in a traditional Indian Marriage Dress as he reflects upon his love and desire for her. He saves her from situation where a corrupt police officer is trying to recruit her as a sex object. However, whilst she finds him attractive because of his honourable stance she finds it difficult to accept his calling as a brutal thug enforcing his bosses wishes and making many enemies in the process. At the same time a new police chief declares war on the underworld and the stage is set for confrontations between various underworld Dons and the police for control of Mumbai with Radhe squarely in the middle of the contending forces.
