IMDB User Comments

Innovation in film editing. The split screen is something that has fallen into disuse because of it's difficult nature, with the exception of "24". In "Wanted", the split screen is not only used brilliantly and traditionally, it's also used ambitiously and uniquely. Normally, a split screen is used to show concurrent action in two settings. This is done in "Wanted", and it is done properly because the split shows how the two plotlines converge. The ambition comes in when a third split is created, and a third plotline is juxtaposed to the original three. But the makers of this film did not stop there. The three splits rotate as if they were items in a slot machine, and then all three splits show the one shot of the FBI agent who delivers the key piece of information. It was brilliant. I look forward to seeing more work of this type, which adds to the comic nature of this caper. I Saw this film because of Depardieu and Keitel, but I enjoyed it for the techies.
