Mark Wahlberg delivers an explosive performance in this action packed thriller based on the legendary, hard hitting video game. Max Payne (Wahlberg) is a maverick cop with little regard for rules and nothing left to lose.
Hell bent on revenge, he's determined to track down those responsible for the brutal murder of his family, but his obsessive investigation takes him on a nightmarish journey where dark fantasy collides with stark reality.
As the mystery deepens, Max is forced to battle enemies beyond the natural world, and face an unlikely betrayal that will drive him to the edge of his own sanity.

Review by: prozac
Dated: 8th of May, 2009
First I am a very big fan of the Max Payne game, especially because of the story and as with all the other games I've played, I really hoped I could someday see it as a movie, and it did happen.
But I was a little disappointed by the movie, it did have some parts of the game but not as I imagined. The story line was too weak, too few flashbacks and almost no action for a very long time. On the other side, the movie theme was exactly as the game theme. Always dark, black & white surroundings and snowing, maybe that's the only good thing about the movie, along with some suspense every now and then. The acting was OK, except that some characters were not good at all and Mark Wahlberg was not as "emotional" as "Max" in the game, but he was good. I recommend you see this movie, it's not that bad as people say, although not that good, but worth to see even once. I enjoyed it but not so much!
