I don’t ever recall having a real comic book as a kid. They just didn’t interest me. I’ve liked all of the movies that have come out recently based on comic books though. Add this movie to the list as well.

I remember seeing the previews way back when and thinking that The Punisher had potential, but I had mixed feelings about how it would actually be. I was in Best Buy today picking up Rounders (Collector’s Edition) and noticed this movie was out, so I thought I’d double treat myself since I haven’t bought a new DVD since Miracle. That may be a new record for time in between DVDs!

I’m glad I made the purchase. It was a pretty good movie…my type of movie. There weren’t any super-human powers, except maybe for surviving death a few times. That’s why it’s a movie I guess. There was a lot of action and some pretty cool explosions that rocked my surround sound system. If you generally like the comic book movies, see this one. I give it a B+.
