The Punisher(2004) was an awesome movie. It does not break away from the real original story of the Punisher Marvel comics, which is a real plus for me.

The story is very good as all of you may or may not know. Simple yet good : Bad guys kill Punishers family (whole family mind you) , Punisher nearly dies yet is nurtured back to life by some witch doctor type guy, Punisher then begins his pursuit of justice, which is killing everybody who killed his family, thus making him The Punisher. There is lots and lots of pretty crazy fighting. Not a whole lot of special effects, just brute force. One of my favorite “fights,” I say that because The Punisher doesn’t really fight, he just wrecks people… back to my favorite fight. It was towards the end of the movie when he takes quite the large knife, twists the other dudes arm around and sticks the knife through the guys hand into his thigh. Ouch. Oh yeah, then he just shoved another knife through the guys chin, through his mouth, and up into his nose area. Ouch again.

Overall a very good action flick.

My Rating : 7 of 10
