Short, independant flick reviews! Read about it, before you watch it!

Max Payne - another Marky Mark flick

Short movie review: Heartbroken detective looking for revenge and salvation - just another guy-taking-revenge movie :-(

The Plot: Silent detective of the NYPD Max Payne becomes the prime suspect after multiple gory homocides. Proceeding with the investigation he figures out that the case is related to his wife and kids murder a few years ago. Driven by rage he solves the case, paying a high price though.

Flickcritique says: I haven’t played the game Max Payne before, so I went to see the movie pretty unbiassed. Based on the trailer I expected some sort of biblical struggle between the forces of good and evil, so imagine my surprise when I realized it was just a regular crime flick. If it wasn’t for the cast with Mark Wahlberg aka Max Payne and super hot Olga Kurylenko, also recently seen in the Quantum of Solace movie, this flick would probably go unnoticed. The plot is simple and painfully foreseeable. You must be a huge Marky Mark fan to watch this :-(

Similar movies: Have you watched RoboCop (1987) with Peter Weller being shot dead so he could be reanimated to bring Robo-justice? Or Hard to Kill (1990) with Steven Seagall as a cop taking revenge for being shot? Max Payne is really no different then these movies :-(
