Wanted was dubbed as the new Matrix and I have to agree.  The special effects, camera work and action scenes were top notch.  Luckily it is now officially coming to Blu-ray and DVD.  The specifications of the Blu-ray are off the hook.

Tech specs for the BD-50 dual-layer presentation enjoy 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 video, a DTS-HD Lossless Master Audio 5.1 Surround track (48kHz/16-bit), and additional Dolby Digital and subtitle offerings in English, French, and Spanish.  I am really excited to see that this film is DTS-HD Lossless as that ensures every bass thump and word uttered from Jolie’s lips will be captured perfectly.

Extras will feature a suite of making-of featurettes ( “Cast and Characters,” “Stunts on the L Train,” “Special Effects: The Art of the Impossible,” “Groundbreaking Visual Effects: From Imagination to Execution,” “The Origins of Wanted: Bringing the Graphic Novel to Life,” “Through the Eyes of Visionary Director Timur Bekmambetov,” “Wanted: Motion Comics”), deleted scenes, an alternate opening, and the “Making of Wanted: The Game” interactive feature.

Exclusive to the Blu-ray will be four U-Control extras including picture-in-picture, a scene explorer, motion comics, and assassin profiles. BD-Live features boast My Chat, MyScenes Sharing, and a “My Wanted” commentary maker.
