I thought it was a steaming bucket of poop.

If you liked that, you should watch Man of Fire. Story is almost the same, but they hired real actors.

I liked both the punisher and man on fire.. they were quite different movies tho..   similar themes not the same.

The new one is directed by a woman?   an action movie directed by a woman?   one strike against it right there.. hard but probly not impossible to get past that.

Am I the only one who used to read the Punisher comic book? And understands that the movie was following the comic book line???  I know that with all you other old farts out there, there's at least a handful that used to read that comic book too. :)



And Man of Fire wasn't almost the same ~ it was an entirely different story.  It was a good movie, but definitely no comparison in the storylines (except maybe that they both showed a LOT of them sitting around getting drunk & feeling sorry for themselves).

I think I'm in agreement with Lazs on this one, a woman directing a Punisher movie? Seems not right. Will definitely look for it when it comes out. :)

I liked the Punisher. I even liked Daredevil. The Phantom and the Shadow were awful.

I don't think Jesus would like you reveling in such a violent movie. I hope you don't expose your children to it.  Well actually I just hope you don't have children...... Yes I know jesus hates me and I am going to burn, so you can save your response.  :O

I loved Daredevil...  Jennifer Garner is one of my fav. actresses. [*ALIAS*]
And I didn't see Phantom or Shadow.

BTW, you guys' have seen BOTH Punisher movies? This latest one with Ray Stevenson as Frank Castle, and the earlier one which cast Dolf Lundgren? I was wondering which one you were referring to as a pile of poop?
