Product Description:
Keenan ivory wayans literally takes it to and over the edge to uncover a web of conspiracy and revenge in this adrenaline pumping action thriller.

Amazon.com:
Comic actor Keenen Ivory Wayans made a creditable effort to expand his career horizons by writing the script for this action thriller, in which he also stars. Wayans plays U.S. Marine Sgt. James Dunn, a military hero who refuses an order to shoot a young shepherd during the Gulf War. His insubordination leads to a lethal struggle with a superior officer and a subsequent murder conviction against Dunn.
Plucked from his death sentence by a covert unit of Marines, however, Dunn soon finds himself in a shadowy world of undercover wars under the command of one Lt. Col. Grant Casey (Jon Voight). Offered freedom in exchange for aiding a mission against a corrupt industrialist (Robert Culp), Dunn agrees and then discovers he's actually been set up to take the fall for an assassination. Suddenly, he's the most wanted man in the world, with police, the military, the Secret Service, and legions of reward seekers chasing him around Los Angeles. Jill Hennessy stars as an eyewitness who happened to catch the killing on videotape and can clear Dunn if she would only cooperate with him--a problem, since he has kidnapped her.
Directed by David Glenn Hogan, Most Wanted works just fine as a well-oiled action piece with a capable star and competent action sequences. The story ideas (especially Dunn's Rambo-esque flight through the city and his reliance on esoteric survival skills) feel overly familiar, but that only makes Most Wanted all the more enjoyable as a potboiler instead of a serious original. --Tom Keogh

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Most Wanted
Not the best film I have ever seen. I love a good adventure, with lots of action and this film has a lot of action. Not the best Keenan Ivory Wayans film I have ever seen, but it was definitely something I will watch again. It was a good buy.
Rating: - IVORY COASTS THROUGH THIS ONE
MOST WANTED is filled with such implausible plot developments and cliche characters it would be easy to dismiss it as just another one of those Wayans brothers movies. But writer/star Keenan Ivory Wayans instills such a sincere approach to the goings on that viewers will more than likely get caught up in it in spite of its incredulity. Wayans plays an imprisoned marine who is sentenced to death for the death of his senior officer. On his way to death row, he is "loosed" by megalomanical Jon Voight ... Read More

To be honest I never heard of this movie before and about two weeks ago I hapen to see the end of this movie on TV and I really like it. I search for the movie and I bought it. I would recommended to everyone.
Rating:  - LEAST WANTED PIECE OF CRAP!!!
This is one of the lamest and stupidest movies in all of cinematic history.The plot was predictable and boring,while the action scenes were no better than the plot.The jokes were lame and Keenan Wayne is not an action star but a comedian.Was this movie made in a week?STAY AWAY FROM THIS GARBAGE!!!
Rating:  - Better than you'd expect, but not that much better

About the Movie:
Overall, this is a mediocre movie. Yet despite that and its plot holes and its fairly unimaginative plot, it ... Read More
