If it's crap... We'll tell you

Max Payne=I'm Suprised.

It wasn't as bad as I thought, It was actually Great.

Yesterday I saw it, I saw Max Payne.

I was pissed that this movie wasn't going to be rated R, and that Fox was going to F*ck it up. I listened to the Max Payne audio review, hearing from Korey and Co-host that this was some ol' bullshit and Cohost gave it a Fuck You, I went to go see it anyway but only because I could get in for free, puppets got connections haha ha. And this is what I have to say, I believe Korey and Co-host 3000 were too rough on the movie.

Now, If only I could go back ONE WEEK into the past, I would tell everyone to Play and Beat the game "Max Payne" before going to see the movie "Max Payne."

I was really suprised, I actually came out of this movie, Satisfied. There were a few things that I didn't like, but they were minor. This movie was 80% the same as the game, and that's the closest any video game to movie adaptation has ever gotten to being accurate.

I've beaten the game many times, so I have the game's story memorized. All the names were the same, gotta give that a plus. Everyone looked mainly like the characters in the game, except Jim Bravura played by Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, but he did have the signiture overcoat and hat at one part.

So I believe that if you play the game and then after watch the movie, you'll appreciate it more, I know I sure did.

For non-fans I could see it being kinda confusing and just another revenge action flick, I would tell you "Play the Game or maybe there is a walkthrough on youtube you can watch when your bored."

I would have to give this a High "MATINEE."

Where there should have been a badass fight between Lupino and Payne, there was nothing. The chick was tougher than Payne but he was tough enough to beat up an accountant.

I might watch it on cable but more likely I would keep surfing.; ▶ Reply to This

I loved it. To me, it didn't feel so much like a blow shit up shoot everything movie, it felt like an honest to god Noir,detective story. Something I haven't seen in awhile. Besides, what newness can you present to the action genre when we've seen pretty much all the craziest shit possible?; ▶ Reply to This

You can check out my review in my blog.; ▶ Reply to This

this movie was fucking boring...it took the story from the game and made it lame, which I didnt know was possible.

The characters were just bad, all of them. its really sad.; ▶ Reply to This

Honestly, watch this movie again, and Mila was probably the only person knowing everything that was going on was stupid.

I can watch this movie because I know it's bad, and I just love laughing at bad parts in films.
So I'd give it a matinee if you just want something to make fun of lol
If not, it's just some ol' bullshit ^-^; ▶ Reply to This
