So the movie is finally coming to theatres in October. Iam anxiously waiting like many other die-hard Max Payne fans.

I CANT WAIT for the trailer to come to the UK. I hear Metsuo are being involved in the music.. if thats the case, its going to be AMAZING!

The plot is interesting, even if it may be a little over-the-edge, but I'm still gunna watch it for sure!

where the hells is vlad and vinne gognitti? and why is such a young chick from that 70s show playing Mona Sax?
posted by SmallieBigs on Sep 29, 2008
I am awaiting the movie as well as the next game, no vlad and vinni in this one because this one seems more closely based on the plot of the first game. still the vlad was in the first game although it wasnt till the second that he became a principal player.

well...a lot of the geeks are already criticizing the movie for not being a better adaptation of the computer game.. but if it was a 1:1 adaptation, all we’d see would be a guy with a gun running around in circles for 180mins, no? ;) Only joking, but I think people who haven’t played the game will love the movie more than those that compare it to the computer game. The movie itself is amazing!! its got all a dark action movie needs: cool storyline, great cast and Metsuo are involved in the music!!!

I keep hearing about Metsuo...who is that??
posted by Lourdes on Oct 07, 2008
Metsuo are a band from the UK. They are known for their dark and dramatic music and have composed a few tracks for the movie, including music for the ending credits. they are pretty amazing. check them out on myspace!!
posted by Rob on Oct 07, 2008
hey Rob, have looked up Metsuo online and on their myspace page are some of their tracks to listen to and they sound incredible!! definately perfect for the movie. thanks for sharing!!

the song in the preview is Save Me by Stereo Black its a really awesome song!!! Just found it.

This was a great movie, it had alot of relations to the video game and even better when it wasnt related to the video game. We all want to see something new, right? We dont want to see the same thing as we have read/played before.

pretty good movie... liked the scene when the guy is being dragged out of the building.

I would give it 3.5 stars if there was the option. The music was great...couldn't have been too much better. good twists too! I expected a shotgun and I got one lol

Don't get me wrong I loved the movie the graphics and music played a big part, but there was something missing I can't put my finger on it. I think maybe it needed to go into more depth than it did.

The movie is outta this world. Anyone who is a Maxc Payne video game freak will love the movie. I suggest you see it and soon

Mark Wahlberg is agreat artist but he should't have done this move.

film = shite music = AWESOME! and thats that kids.
posted by Rob on Nov 24, 2008
agree to the music bit..that was indeed rather cool guys. I liked the look of the movie as well, nice cinematography etc.. but story structure was flawed here and there. still enjoyable in my opinion.
posted by Justin on Nov 24, 2008
This movie was so damn damn awesome! It was really beautifully shot and very well done in all other aspects, like acting, casting, action, drama.. It held itself I think further than expected (to me) because I wasn't too sure what to expect other than a great movie, but it let it self really shine. The movie was deffinately emotionally driven and it's beyond comparison with other movies because it's not like "other" action movies/ if you could call it that because it's more of a crime thriller really- with it's well-placed action sequences. Wonderful movie! Can't wait for the DVD :)
posted by Raee on Nov 25, 2008A number two is possible and I deffinately wouldn't mind! MARK WAHLBERG IS THE BEST! :D
posted by Raee on Nov 25, 2008
Very cool. Deep, dark, like the game.

AWESOME....!!!!!!!!
posted by silent_chaos on Dec 12, 2008
my new fav. love the dark feel to it, the music was kick ass too! i would like to shoot a film like this one day.
posted by pyromagnium6 on Dec 31, 2008
A #2 would be awesome! and ofcourse this one ruled, full of emotion with that action it promises. Mark was the best choice they could have made - he's the best actor :D
posted by raerae on Jan 08, 2009
how can anybody say this movie was good? i couldn't even finish it because it was so bad. this should teach us a lesson... never turn games into movies. name five good movies that were once games... exactly
posted by dankmastrflex on Jan 22, 2009
good point dank. except you made one mistake. this movie was not based on a game first. it was a graphic novel. just like resident evil.
posted by rshack on Jan 23, 2009
had the potential to be so much better, could have followed the game plot closer
