Review of Punisher: War Zone (2008) by Manuelm. — 02 Mar 2009
Those who felt The Punisher with Thomas Jane was too tame and lame compared to the brutal carnage portrayed in the modern Punisher comics will be smiling with glee watching this Punisher. I know I was.
Those expecting to see Oscar-caliber acting performances and story lines are complete morons: this movie is all about action and it provides in bloody chunks. Ray Stevenson actually plays a better Punisher than Thomas Jane, which I thought was impossible since Jane did a good job as Frank Castle.
The only bad thing(s) are the villains, Jigsaw and Loony Bin Jim, who try their best to ham it up and add an unnecessary element of cartoon silliness to an otherwise gritty story.
