Coming together to solve a series of murders in New York City are a police detective whose family was slain as part of a conspiracy and an assassin out to avenge her sister's death. The duo will be hunted by the police, the mob, and a ruthless corporation.
Three years ago, NYPD detective Max Payne's wife and baby were murdered. Max gets himself transferred to the cold case office where he can continue searching for the killer who got away. He's a loner, but two people reach out to him during a fateful week: Alex, his ex-partner who may have found a clue, and BB, the security chief at the pharmaceutical company where Max's wife worked. Meanwhile, bodies are piling up, some as a result of a drug on the street that is highly addictive and, for many who take it, brings hideous hallucinations. When one of the bodies is a woman Payne was the last to see alive, her sister comes looking for him armed to the teeth; Max must move fast.
I am not a player of video games, Thusly I am just going to write about this exciting very well made & acted film. John Moore directed, Beau Thornes screenplay which is based on the video game by Sam Lake. From the very opening scene, the movie has that that surreal look of a video game layout. I could not tell what city I was in, all sets & locations had that false look about them. The movie was made in Toronto. The makers of this movie created another world, Wisely this fantasy look & the fact pace of the action made the movie work. I was easily able to overlook the improbable story line, & sit back & enjoy the goings on. The movie is quite violent, but thankfully NOT overdone. The acting is first rate, Mark Wahlberg has become as a first rate action star, Beau Bridges makes a good villain. Mila Kunis is the required female presence.Chris O'Donnal, Ludicrous & Donal Logue have roles as well. Stay thru all the credits as there is one more scene,that partially solves a missing plot point.. The 103 minute running time moves very fast. Its not a great film,but is a good well made movie. Ratings: *** (out of 4) 87 points (out of 100) IMDb 8 (out of 10)
This movie adaptation may be the worst thing I have ever seen. I saw it when it came out and hated it and haven't seen it since, until tonight. I ran through Max Payne in a sitting on PC then popped in the movie to compare and fairly judge the film, but for an adaptation you need to look at it from two angles: Adaptation: This movie fails on almost every aspect of the adaptation. If the names of the characters were different I may think to myself, well this movie kind of reminds me of Max Payne, but, meh, it's a coincidence. Seriously. Remove the names of everything and it's not an adaptation. I wouldn't have been surprised to find out Fox changed the name of a script they already had and said "hey, go make us a Max Payne movie now. Apparently that's what the kids like. Speaking of kids, despite the adult themed game in terms of violence, sleaziness, and atmosphere make it PG-13." I know they didn't cut anything really to get the rating after filming, but there's so much they cut out before filming knowing the rating. For a game that doesn't take a break from the massacre, it's odd this adaptation has two action scenes. The plot bounces around and changes almost every aspect from the game. Stand Alone Quality: Also a failure. If I didn't ever lay the game I'd still hate this movie. It sucks. It looks cool and it's sad to see flickers of promising ideas and artistic creation, but in general this movie is bad. Acting is terrible. Plot is terrible. Direction is a problem in scenes in terms of over directing, confusing camera cuts and effects, and the entire inclusion of Valkyries and hallucinations. This movie is filled with holes and a stench of terribleness. Do yourself a favor and lobotomize yourself if you've seen it or run away if you haven't. THIS MOVIE IS BAD.
Turning video games into movies may be one way for studios to coax teenagers away from their laptops, but this time around, the results are miserable, in every sense of the word.
Max Payne is based on a 2001 video game of the same name. The video game was adapted for the screen by American screenwriter Beau Thorne. The most common track used is "If I Was Your Vampire" by Marilyn Manson. Yes, although there isn't much of it. While in spirit and tone, the Max Payne film is very similar to the game, many details are changed. Obviously, numerous things are cut because the film runs at about 2 hours, while the play time of the game is much longer The character Jason Colvin (Chris O'Donnell) is a completely new character added for the film. Max's inner-monologue and "comic book" style narration are almost completely cut, except for minor bits in the beginning and end of the film. Jack Lupino's origin is revealed, as he is portrayed as a "test subject gone mad" in the film. He was given Valkyr as a sort of "super serum" for soldiers in the War on Terror, and, like almost all the other test subjects, eventually went insane. In the game, Jack Lupino dies in the first section, whereas in the film he dies in the final act. Also, in the game, Max kills him, while in the film, he is killed by B.B. Hensley. Nicole Horne does not die in the film. Unlike in the game, Mona Sax is not hired to kill Max by Nicole Horne. Mona is not wounded or presumably killed as she was in the game. However, a slight reference is made to that game scene in the film, as she is last seen in an elevator. Jim Bravura is no longer the Chief of Police, but instead an Internal Affairs detective, and is turned from an aging police veteran to a young, upstart, and wise cracking detective. All of the dream sequences from the game are cut, and had they not been cut, the film would have most definitely received an "R" rating. Valkyr is explained much more in the film, and displayed on film as a massive hallucinogenic drug, still created by Nicole Horne's company, Aesir. In the film, however, it was a failed "serum" used on soldiers in the War on Terror to make them "fearless". The drug made the test subjects so hungry for more and insane that Aesir was forced to shut down the project, not before Jack Lupino had escaped to the streets. In the film, the hallucinations of the users are mainly demonic angels which "influence" the user's choices, and the drug also turns violent images into peaceful ones, and peaceful images into violent ones. The best way to describe the effects of Valkyr would be that it turns the user into a sort of paranoid schizophrenic. Also, in the game, Max Payne killed all three men who killed his wife and daughter when he encountered them when he came home from work. In the movie, one of them got away. It is later revealed that B.B. is the third killer. Also, B.B. is a young guy in the game while in the movie, he is an older man. Yes. At the very end of the credits there is a scene between Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis, which sets the stage for a possible sequel: Mona shows Max a newspaper that reports Nicole Horn to be the new CEO of Aesyr Corp. The company, against expectations, apparently thrives. One of the harshest critics of the film was 3D Realms CEO Scott Miller, one of the game's producers, who cited fundamental story flaws "that have me shaking my head in bewilderment," including the game's opening scenes being instead placed in the middle of the film. After the film's #1 opening weekend, however, he retracted his comments, saying that he was now "proud of the film," and that "This kind of opening brings us a lot closer to the reality of a sequel," to the long-stalled video game franchise.(wikipedia) In order to achieve the more attractive PG-13-rating for the cinematical release, the film was cut and edited in terms of violence and sexual content as well as drug use. The unrated version was later released on DVD. Yes. When Max arrives at the bar to meet with Mona, the bartender says to Max, "Good to have you back." a5c7b9f00b
