Editorial Review:
A POLICE DETECTIVE IS IN CHARGE OF THE INVESTIGATION OF A BRUTALMURDER, IN WHICH A BEAUTIFUL AND SEDUCTIVE WOMAN COULD BE INVOLVED.

Description of The Punisher [Blu-ray]:
The impressively muscular chest of Tom Jane is the focal point of The Punisher, a movie based on a Marvel Comics superhero. Frank Castle (Jane, Deep Blue Sea) retires from the FBI, which means--as any moviegoer expects--that his family is toast. Howard Saint (John Travolta, Face/Off), a shady Florida businessman whose son was killed in Castle's last mission, orders a hit not only on Castle's wife and child, but also on his parents and a whole bunch of aunts, uncles, cousins, and so forth. The killers shoot Castle himself in the chest, but he inexplicably survives and--as any moviegoer expects--sets out to even the score. Implausibly, given his sometimes curious and roundabout methods, he succeeds. Also featuring Will Patton (Armageddon) as an oily thug, Laura Harring (Mulholland Drive) as Saint's fleshpot wife, and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos (X-Men) as a waitress with bad taste in men. --Bret Fetzer

Blaze of glory! Justice rules!
2009-10-11 - If you've been a victim of crime and injustice, you'd LOVE this movie!

Learn from the hero as he systematically seeks justice by taking out a bunch of scumbags!

There should be more heroes like this in real life!

Great story, lots of action
2009-10-02 - This movie is about an FBI agent who basically has his entire family murdered in by a enemy. After the police fail to bring the criminals to justice, he is out for blood and decides to take matters into his own hands. If you like action movies then this is a must see.

Average Action Movie
2009-09-27 - The soundtrack was engaging and a real positive aspect of this movie.
The plot and dialog were run of the mill hollywood action revenge mindless
cinema. the video transfer deserves high scores for the deep blacks and lack of
video banding.

good action but needs more "punishing"
2009-08-30 - As as a good action flick goes this one hits the spot, but it is not as good as the old action classic with Doplh Lundgren The Punisher [DVD] [1990].

I've decided to grade this film according four characteristics: storyline, acting, action, trueness to the "The Punisher"-theme.

As far storyline goes, this one has a more engaging story than the previous film. It is more realistic, has more interesting characters in it and even manages to put some humor in it.

The acting by the lead Thomas is very good, he does the role very well. The others are alright: the three friends of 'The Punisher' are nice characters that reduces the intensity of 'The Punishers's role.
The let-down for me is that Travolta doesn't convince me as a super-villain, he is not evil enough...his wife in the film seems more evil than him.

The film is consistent with action, and never gets boring.

The reason I don't rate this 5/5 is because it does not live-up to "The Punisher"-theme as much as the previous film, the Punisher in this film is simply too soft. I expected him to lash out more brutal punishment but instead he chooses quick deaths for his enemy rather than punishment.
This is where the older film is better, it lives up to the role much better, i.e. it is more brutal.
For me, Dolph is still a better "Punisher".

All-in-all though its a very good action film, you won't get bored. So if you like action it is worth seeing.
