My colleague at the University of Maryland demolished Ray Stevenson’s The Punisher in his review, and most critics have been similarly ill-disposed towards the new film.
I for one had marshaled some hope, after the goofball camp of the Thomas Jane Punisher, that this seemingly more serious incarnation might be worth seeing.
This does not appear to be the case.
It should be interesting to see what kind of crowd the new Punisher draws, and it does make you wonder, will anyone ever be able to make a succesful movie with this guy?
