Saw Punisher Warzone last night

The plot was, there. Kinda mostly
The acting was, pretty damn good for some (I like Ray Stevenson, a lot after this), not so great for others (Reports of "italian stereotypes are not unwarrented)

The action: INFUCKINGCREDIBLE. The body count was mindblowing. Heads exploded constantly in the fight scenes, and they werent happy to leave them all at just gunshot wounds (the opening scene with Frank of the table with the flare opens up with, I wont say, but there was a lot of blood :))


As far as the bad reviews it got, anyone who went in with the illusion that this was going to be like any of the other comic based movies that came out this year was, well, stupid. It lived up to what I personally expected from something base don the punisher; ultraviolent. Probably because I have a little girl myself, I totally bought the sappier moments of the movie.

But those were few, and necessary to care about the victims as something other than "girl and woman in trouble". And they lead to a guy getting the entire eye/nose part of his face punched in (LITERALLY :D) and another getting his head blown off with a shotgun.

Go see it. If you just want to see a bunch of people get shot, stabbed, slashed, blown up and beheaded, go see it.
