To make the opening more captivating, Zhang Tiancheng made a few minor adjustments to the plot of Wanted.
Instead of following the original version where the protagonist is oppressed by his boss and his girlfriend cheats on him with his best friend, the film kicks off with several gunmen attempting a long-range assassination of a target, only to be counter-killed by the very person they were trying to eliminate.
Long-range sniper assassinations offered no real surprises for the audience. In Hollywood, such scenes were far from fresh.
