Max Payne in the ass

If you played the video game, odds are, you wanna see the movie. The movie wasn't bad... but it was nothing like the video game. I seem to remember playing through the game being able to slow down time so that you could do a very "Matrix"-ish thing with dodging bullets and shooting people before they could shoot you. There was MAYBE one part in the movie where they slowed down time in this sense but it was pointless and he couldn't move any faster than anyone else during this time. 

Marky Mark wasn't totally Horse Doody in this film. He was better than he was in The Happening. He does an action roll pretty well, but then again, I've always been a fan of his in The Italian Job. Overall, this dark action movie is probably something that will draw you to the theater if you were a fan of the games. But the story was lacking and I found it confusing, as did my friend who had never played the games before...  ENJOY!
