He has no superpowers to battle the evil he sees - only his fierce intelligence, his years of combat experience and, above all, his iron determination to avenge those wronged by society's villains. Amazon.com: The impressively muscular chest of Tom Jane is the focal point of The Punisher, a movie based on a Marvel Comics superhero. Frank Castle (Jane, Deep Blue Sea) retires from the FBI, which means--as any moviegoer expects--that his family is toast. Howard Saint (John Travolta, Face/Off), a shady Florida businessman whose son was killed in Castle's last mission, orders a hit not only on Castle's wife and child, but also on his parents and a whole bunch of aunts, uncles, cousins, and so forth. The killers shoot Castle himself in the chest, but he inexplicably survives and--as any moviegoer expects--sets out to even the score. Implausibly, given his sometimes curious and roundabout methods, he succeeds. Also featuring Will Patton (Armageddon) as an oily thug, Laura Harring (Mulholland Drive) as Saint's fleshpot wife, and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos (X-Men) as a waitress with bad taste in men. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - CheapI ordered this movie because I wanted it in HD. I have the regular DVD and I watch it more than all my other DVDs. I got it cheap and very quick. Me happy, me likey. Rating: - A worthy editionI thought that this movie was pretty good already, but the addition of the extended scenes and the whole missing storyline was well worth the buy. The animated beginning should have never been cut from the theatrical version. This movie and the director's cut of the Abyss are two that give you the whole story. 5 stars. Rating: - punisherThe Punisher [Blu-ray]very good action packed movie and sound great on surround sound. better than most sound in theaters. Rating: - I liked itThe Punisher has been in the Marvel comics world since 1974. He's probably changed a bit during that time. I hadn't followed him much, partly because I stopped reading comics in 1983. I liked the movie. The character and story were believable. And John Travolta played an excellent villain. Rating: - Overly harsh punishmentA sleazy showcase of sadism, slapstick and sentimentality, this version of The Punisher is only marginally better than forgettable Dolph Lundgren version. Good performances from Rebecca Romijin, Ben Foster and John Travolta, and a cameo by Roy Scheider, don't quite make up for the way the film turns slaughter into a joke by veering drunkenly from the subfusc to the ridiculous. Reviews I've read suggest that the directors' cut manages to explain away most of the plot holes, but I feel ... Read More |
