The Official the Punisher rocked all kinds of Sweetness thread
Just saw the Punisher and i really liked it
Nice and gritty, not actioned packed but never dull
Some cool characters, loved the neighbours
Thomas Jane was pretty good, very sexy
John Travolta was predictable but effective
Rebecca Romijin looked good even dressed as trailer park trash
and Roy Schneider !

This movie was pretty bad. Jane was horrible especially when he spoke and Travolta was crap as usual. Also the neighbours were extremely annoying and just took away from the flick.

The movie LITERALLY ranks in my top 10 ALL-TIME WORSTE movies I've ever seen in my life. It was pure torture sitting through this piece of garbage. I felt personally insulted that the studios would subject people to this type of rehashed garbage.

I hate SOOO many movies other people love, I can't help it, but I'm pretty fair, I can almost always see why people enjoy them. The Punisher I cannot see even the slightest thing enjoyable about the movie. For one, Thomas Jane was AWFUL, the Punisher is suppose to strike fear into a man the second he sees him, Jane looked like he was going to cry in every single scene & his digitized voiced to make him sound raspy & badass was just laughable. The action was the most bland, bromide, redundant action I've ever seen. Trovolta was about as cliched & boring of a bad guy as you can get & I am a pretty big Trovolta fan. The acting all-around was some of the worst IMO ever commited to a big budget movie. Rebecca Romijn looked SOOOO out of place in the movie, her two roomates were the single two most annoying characters I've ever seen. Where on earth does the Punisher get all of his weapons from, the guy get's shot in the shoulder, leg, the crap beat out of him & then POINT BLANK IN THE CHEST & LIVES, he is a highly decorated FBI agent who has his entire family slaughtered, the house is bordered up & vacant afterwards yet they live the guns & ammunition in the house, EVERY SINGLE TIME THERE IS ACTION IN THE MOVIE, BUILDINGS BLOWN UP, BROKEN INTO, CAR CHASES, MASSIVE KILLINGS THERE IS NOT ONE COP AROUND OR EVEN ANYONE AROUND IN DOWNTOWN MODERN MIAMI CITY. The music was sOOO bad, the cheezy lightning & thunder going off every time Trovolta said a line. . . OH my god, I can go on & on with how stupid this movie was. And I love good mindless action movies but I really felt this movie was insulting. Like the stuidos feel they can throw out any mindless action movie out there & hope people will eat it up. Luckily the movie tanked.

I really do hate posts that just bash a movie though & never explain why. That's why I explained my feelings.

After everything I read I was going to skip this movie, and I'm a huge fan of the Punisher comics. I saw it about a week ago and I absolutely loved it. I'm glad I let myself form my own opinion instead of the opinions of others.

I liked the flick. I found it to be a fun and yet totally cheesy b-action flick. It's not a great film in any sense, but I thought what was presented was enjoyable and I would consider buying the DVD.

The Punisher does rock. Its cheesy in a good way. I think its a great example of how to do cheese right.
If you want to see an example how to be cheesy in a horrible way, go see Van Helsing

Thomas Jane made a perfect Punisher if you ask me. He had the "normal guy" look with that edgy side that the punishers' years in nam (in this case desert storm) would have added.
Great casting and I can't wait for the sequel with jigsaw.

Punisher DVD is awesome. My brother and I sat down and watched it today, and boy were we pleased to see the out come! I just hope Punisher 2 becomes a reality with Tom Jane! This guy is the punisher! He couldn't have acted better, he was perfect!
