Review:

Max Payne was supposed to be a big time event for me. Ever since hearing about this I've been looking forward to it. I saw the trailer on a commercial the other day, reminded me it came out Friday. Mark Walberg one of my favorite actors, love the video game, commercial was filled with explotions, and violence. And the topper Mila Kunis, she's fucking hot so yeah. Things were looking good, and then.... and then... the movie fucking started. From the beginning it was disjointed, it moved slow, characters weren't developed. Max Payne was a hollow man, nothing real interesting about him. The violence was good, but there wasn't enough of it. Special effects were also pretty cool, but it was so confusing that it made them pointless. Mila Kunis was pretty badass in this, and proved to one of the few things I enjoyed about the movie. A lot of character actors in this, Ludracris even shows up. All in all it might be an ok netflix rental, or one of those supermarket dollar rentals. Seeing it in the movie? Fuck that!
