"The angels are not done with you yet."

Ah, some good old fashioned video game based action! Mark Wahlberg stars as Max Payne, a cop who is falling apart as a result of the murder of his wife and child, so once the investigation goes dry he relegates himself to the cold case desk in order to keep digging. Once new evidence comes to light, he goes on a revenge fueled rampage to find the murderer. It's a twisted, twisty, interesting, dark, visually intriguing and ultimately enjoyable action thriller. We saw the big bad guy coming a mile away and were kind of disappointed that it took Max so long to figure it out, but the journey getting there was quite watchable. I was surprised that the psycho villain was played by a guy I always think of as a tv actor, and was excited that he did such a good job with it. We're always down for Marky Mark, and the rest of the cast was bulging at the seams with other people we like - Mila Kunis, Beau Bridges, Ludacris, Chris O'Donnell, Donal Logue, Olga Kurylenko - so although this wasn't a great movie it is definitely worth the watch.
