Punisher
2004 I have to say is a solid movie with Thomas Jane as Frank Castle also John Travolta plays villain. So it starts off with Frank Castle's last day with the FBI agent & a guy guy is accidentally shot & killed it turns out to be John Travolta's character's son so he want the man dealt with but Travolta's characters wife puts a hit on all of them. While on Family reunion Frank & his wife & kid are there EVERYONE is a target & the men think they killed Frank Castle but he's still alive he returns to Tampa for Revenge & basically to end The Mob lead by John Travolta's character. There are a few flaws I though the Thomas Jane's fight with Kevin Nash was cheesy. I wish it could've been set in New York but I can understand why. I have the
Blu
Ray
version & the longer version the longer version adds 17 minutes that do help a little with the plot. It does Tease a sequel but thanks to LGF, Lexi Alexader & Ray Stevenson they had to go & f**k it up!

It's not the quality of the movie, but the blu-ray
I am a fan of "The
Punisher
" and this is my favorite in the three versions that have been done. But I am not going to write a review on the movie, but on this
Blu
-
Ray
. First and foremost; there are no special features on here....? WTF? It is
blu-ray
and your not going to add some special features? Every time you load the disc it displays this set-up of how to navigate the settings. Skipping through that and on to the next. I don't believe that they perfected the quality (or the transfer) at this point, because some of the scenes are way too grainy. In fact when I first saw blu-ray, a lot of the movies looked like this and I was turned off, because I didn't think it looked good. Now Sin City is a great example of how great a blu-ray can look and there are a ton of special features. If you own the extended cut of "The Punisher"on DVD don't bother buying this one.

The best adaptation of a Marvel comic...yet
First, I'll admit that I have never read a
Punisher
comic; thus, I had no expectations going in when I saw the movie upon its release. That is probably why I saw it with an open mind, not have any comic reference to build on.
The film stands on its own as a testament to the pitfalls of revenge, on both the "good" guy and the "bad" guy's part. Thomas Jane plays the federal agent who runs afoul of a villainous John Travolta and both actors jump headfirst into their respective roles.
Jane garners sympathy as a man who avenges the death of his entire family, including his wife and son. He masters an ingenious plot to not only destroy his mortal enemy, John Travolta (the man behind the massacre) but drives a wedge between Travolta and his wife as well as Travolta's "aide-de-camp."
The good performances of Jane and Travolta are matched by James Carpinello as Travolta's twin sons, Samantha Mathis as Travolta's wife, and Will Patton as Travolta's number one henchman. Rebecca Romijn, Ben Foster, and John Pinette are wonderful as three apartment dwellers that form a bond with Jane's "Frank Castle" character.
The body count is great as are the graphic measures that Castle takes to "rub out" Travolta's minions.
The DVD offers viewers a chance to see an animated beginning, detailing some story elements that were not produced for the original film but gives some necessary plot information.
I would probably give the DVD five stars if it had a "how-to" workout regimen that Jane took in order to get as buff as he is in the film.

The punisher Rules
This is a remake of The
Punisher
Made back in 1989. Well I will have to say that i'm not the one for remakes. but the director and producers pulled this one off. this remake is just as good as the first movie. And Thomas Jane was Perfect For the role as The Punisher and John Travolta was Perfect For Howard Saint. this movie is awesome. If you have not seen this movie then you should.
Awesome Movie and DVD Plays Well
This is not just an awesome movie but the DVD recording and playback of it is awesome as well.
Thanks!! Phil
