The Punisher
Thomas Jane, John Travolta, James Carpinello, Rebecca Romaijn-Stamos, Laura Harring, Will Patton, Ben Foster. Directed & Written by Jonathan Hensleigh.
The Punisher is one of many revenge movies to come out in recent weeks. I can say without a doubt, it was everything I expected. Frank Castle (Thomas Jane) is an FBI Agent who just goes into retirement after an arms bust, in which a young man is killed. This young man's father, Howard Saint (John Travolta), goes out to get the man who did this to him, Frank Castle.
Castle's entire family is murdered, including his wife and child. He himself is shot several times and set on a dock and lit on fire. He somehow survives, and goes after everyone who did this to him.
The Punisher is a non-stop thrill ride of violence. There are new and spectacular ways of killing people. The action was very intense and well done. The acting was better than I expected, especially from John Travolta. Besides the action, there was also good plot development. Castle making friends with the people who live in the apartment is also good.
Some of the action was unrealistic, which is expected. This is Hollywood; what can you expect? All in all, this is definitely the best revenge movie I have seen in a long time. 8 out of 10.

hellboy was fantastic.
the acting was great by all parties
special effects were a little heavily used, but they were very good.
storyline was good, although weak at times.
makeup and costumes were amazing. especially abe sapien.
the humor was also a nice touch. i thought it was funny how hellboy had a thing for kittens.
i also found it funny how he would curse and yell at the person he was fighting.

Could've been a lot funnier. Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson make a good team, although my expectations were a little high for the movie when I walked in.
In my opinion, there wasn't enough funny. There was really nothing to the movie. While the funny parts were very funny, there wasn't enough to them. It was almost like watching the TV show itself.
I did enjoy the movie, as Snoop Dogg always makes me laugh. And their car is so amazing, it made me want to go out and buy a Grand Turino.
I hope Todd Phillips keeps making good movies.
