Review of Max Payne (2008) by Gerry C — 06 Sep 2010
Well, it went against m,y better judgement, but I saw this movie and guess what? I was right. Visually, the film is a colorized Sin City, but the film is nothing like that. The script is wooden, the ideas are unoriginal, and the characters seem to have forgotten that their faces are capable of movement.
Max himself seems to have become a saner version of Frank Castle, and the plot seems to have gone from that of a good noir game to a bad revenge flick. By the end of it, I was left with nothing more than a feeling of "seen it all before, but better.
".
