Oh Max Payne, another video game movie that was produced. For the most part, movies based on games suck, and this is for a good reason.

The Movie felt as if it was crammed into a limited period of time. There were some brilliantly done scenes that were rather impressive. The plot left me and my friends leaving just saying, "What The Fuck?"

The movie is unrealistic, and yeah it's a movie, but it was predictable and kind of pathetic. I would not reccomend watching this movie, not even online seeing as how it would be impossible to appreciate the good scenes in the movie.

Do not watch it, you will be sorely dissapointed.

It's a movie based off of a video game. Of course it would be predictable, if you played the game. And of course it will be unrealistic, it's a movie based off a video game.

:ahe:

No shit, it's a game with 10+ hours of gameplay time crammed into an hour and a half long movie. Which brings me to my next point, no shit it's unrealistic and predictable, it's based off a video game. If you ever PLAYED the game, you probably know everything that's going to happen in the movie. And I don't know if you personally ever played the game, but there's this mode called bullet time where you slow down time and shit, plus you're one man in a city killing thousands and thousands of thugs. If the movie wasn't unrealistic it would be absolute shit and nothing like the game.

Actually, I think just the opposite.

I, having not ever played the games, thought the movie accomplished everything it set out to do. Corny punchlines, and quick-action like fuck. The story wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible either. Plus, the chick in it was naked for like the entire movie.


Ended up turning this on because it was on, and there was nothing else on at 2 in the morning. But I sure as hell wasn't disappointed.
