Top CriticThe good news is that he infuses the potentially dry, formulaic plot with comedy. The bad news is that it’s a by-the-numbers production.

Most Wanted is an overly familiar B-grade action flick...
01/01/00
Keenen Ivory Wayans ... is said to have done some of the research for his story on the Internet, which is just one more reason to fear the influence of this technological monster.

Top CriticNot only is the screenplay for Most Wanted laughably absurd, but it contains line after line of the worst dialogue available in any film currently on a multiplex screen.

...directed with bland efficiency...

Top CriticQuite simply, Most Wanted is hack work, from every word of Wayans' screenplay to every exposed frame of David Glenn Hogan's direction.

[T]he film isn't as terrible as you might think — it's just bad.

Blandly generic and transparently derivative, pic appears to have been cobbled together from bits and pieces of earlier, better thrillers.

The movie is a conspiracy thriller with plenty of action scenes but not much in the way of tension or excitement.
01/01/00
There's nothing hugely wrong with Most Wanted, except that it's painfully predictable and rather unconvincing.
01/01/00
Wayans looks the action hero: buff, cool, and stoic, but in straying from his normal comedic persona he also strips himself of any charm and personality.
01/05/09
Wayans ... has the physique for action heroics, but he has the soul of a comedian.
