The Punisher: War Zone, AKA A Million Heads Blown Off

Post by NightSlash »

Alright, here's the deal with the movie, it has cheesy dialogue, insanely over-the-top acting from everyone except Ray Stevenson and Julie Benz, and just overall it's rather bad. But it revels in that fact, and pumps more violence into it than any Saw film. People don't just die in this movie, they get severely f'd up. One guy gets thrown off a roof, impaled on a fence, and then Frank jumps down knee/foot-first and savagely breaks his neck with said limb. He kicks a chair-leg through a guy's face, punches through another guy's skull, and blows off I don't know how many heads. This is on par with Rambo in terms of sheer insane violence. And for that reason it is highly entertaining.

And it bombed. Which is what happens when you put a movie like this out in December. It'd have been better in January or September.
