Kevin R @Kevin199 Jun 14 Too many missed opportunities. The Punisher has an amazing concept, but is so poorly executed. The first mistake was rewriting the Punisher’s origin by making Frank Castle an FBI agent instead of a marine captain. It takes place in Florida instead of the gritty New York. The pacing is sluggish. The opening scene should have been him as a marine in the Afghan War killing Middle Eastern terrorists in Afghanistan, not him undercover as a fed pretending to be a German arms dealer. The mob hit on him and his family should have been random instead of planned and it should have been in Central Park where he’s having picnic with his family instead of at a beach in Puerto Rico during a family reunion. The movie spends a disproportionate amount of time on the villain and Frank’s quirky apartment neighbors rather than vigilantism. Castle spends too much of the film manipulating the bad guys to turn on each other rather than engaging in direct combat. Lacks action. See more First name L @ZaynGrayy Jun 12 Great cast great cgi. Thomas did a great job. I didn't see the original comics but great part of the movie looks inspired by them. Howard saint and his friend look like nick and francis from l4d.

It is not great, but it is not awful either. Marvel and Lionsgate deliver a movie that has some solid ideas and a decent dark tone, but it never fully rises above being just okay. What works best is the lead performance and the overall gritty style, which gives it a harsher edge than a lot of comic book movies. There are moments that are entertaining and the film has enough going for it to keep your attention, but it also feels uneven in places and does not always hit as hard as it should. Overall, The Punisher is a watchable but forgettable superhero film. It has enough strengths to keep it from being bad, but enough flaws to keep it from being good. I would rate it 5/10.

After seeing this one the rest without him was not for me. I was looking forward to the next one but unfortunately didn't happen.

Diferente de muitos heróis, ele não busca justiça idealizada — busca vingança. E é exatamente essa linha brutal que guia The Punisher, lançado em 2004, com 124 minutos de duração, dirigido por Jonathan Hensleigh. Entre as três versões cinematográficas do personagem — The Punisher, estrelado por Dolph Lundgren, The Punisher com Thomas Jane e Punisher: War Zone (2008) com Ray Stevenson — esta versão é, para muitos fãs, a que melhor equilibra história, brutalidade e construção dramática do personagem. O Justiceiro de 2004 acerta ao entender que Frank Castle não é um herói tradicional. Ele é um homem quebrado pela perda, que encontra na vingança uma forma distorcida de continuar vivendo. O filme assume um tom mais sombrio e pessoal, focando na construção psicológica da vingança, ao invés de apostar apenas em espetáculo. ⭐ Nota final: 7 / 10 See more Read all reviews
