The movie looks like such a departure from the original game. I mean, if they changed the name of the film, I wouldn't even know that this was supposed to be about Max Payne. This film doesn't seem to resemble the games at all.

That said, though. These trailers have been awesome. I would very much like to see this on opening night.

 

[Sniper McBlaze]

Peter Berg should've been Max Payne. :/

I wouldn't say all that. Bank scene shootout, dead family, trench coat and gun fights, drugged up bastards and a female "sidekick". Not sure how it doesn't resemble Max Payne at all. It does. I believe casting choices and probably a few other mistakes will make this just decent though.

PG-13?

Max Payne didn't have a lot of gore or anything like that, so it's ok.

As for that "new trailer" yodandy, it still contains manson etc, same trailer. Still awesome seeing it in higher quality

 

[dustytruly]

[i heart sluts]

Yo film and filmmaker geeks I POSE a Question!

Is it me or is the trailer wider than 2.35 aspect ratio?

or am I just going crazy?

 

[Baron Aloha]

So there are supernatural elements in the games? I've never played them but I don't remember ever seeing any media featuring that sort of thing.

 

[Raiden]

Wow i really dont like the style of this, coming from a Mark Wahlberg and especially a Max Payne fan.

Have you noticed in what thread you are posting? Have you noticed the trailer at the beggining of the thread?

watching it again in Hi Def again.

Honestly I think Mark is going to do the role of "Max Payne" justice.

As long as there is dialogue of him talking in a sort of out of breath, smoker/drinker and as long as he has the wit to deliver the 1-2 sentence quips that Max delivered in the game... I think we have the makings of an awesome game ----> movie adaptation.

And for people who haven't played the games..... stop what you're doing and go play the f'ning games. They are fun as the story is fantastic!!

Too bad Frank Miller didn't get a hold of this---- would've been interesting to see his take on the series.

EDIT: after seeing it in high def, I'm sold that this movie will be good.

The demons and hell and all that junk is going to be most likely related to Max's suicidal thoughts after his wife and baby are murdered. I'm guessing if they make a sequel... they'll get past some of that and make it more related to the "V" drug.

 

[Boogie]

Screw the haters. Day 1 for me.

I understand the....concerns, but every time I see the trailers for this, I think it looks fucking badass.

 

[S1kkZ]

Spoiler

Nope. They're just visual manifestations of people tripping out on a drug called Valkyrie.

 

[JimiNutz]

It's not the Noir type movie I always imagined it would be but nothing in the trailer screamed 'OMFG this will be awful!' so I'm kind of expecting an average hyper-stylised action movie. I imagine it will be about as good/bad as the recent Hitman movie-which I haven't seem but heard is pretty average.

Also Mila Kunis is cute as fucking sin

Shame about the voice
