Amazon.com:
Any film based on a first-person shooter video game should, as a rule of thumb, be full of epic shootouts on a level equal to Sergio Leone or the Wachowski Brothers, and in that regard, Max Payne is an unqualified success. Mark Wahlberg also lives up to the game's pedigree by brooding mightily as the title hero, a big city detective mourning the murder of his wife and child. Revenge is, of course, Payne's ultimate goal, and with the assistance of slinky Russian hitwoman Mila Kunis, he dishes it out in elaborate set pieces overflowing with gymnastic gun play. Viewers seeking just that and nothing more will get their money's worth from John Moore's film adaptation, and most likely be impressed by its fashionably gloomy art direction and cinematography. Those seeking a bit more than gunpowder and gristle will find Max Payne utterly derivative of a half-dozen better films (Christopher Nolan's Batman films, most notably) and violent to the point of cartoon absurdity. They may find some refuge in appealing supporting turns by Donal Logue and Chris "Ludacris" Bridges as diametrically opposed cops and Beau Bridges, who offers his usual roguish charm as Payne's former superior. --Paul Gaita

Max Payne came out in 2008, I didn't go see it in the movies even though I am a fan of the games. Lets face it nine out of ten times videogames do not translate into good movies. I did rent it this past weekend from Netflix though and watched it with my girlfriend who knows nothing about the games but loved the movie.
Here is the story in the movie. The movie starts off a week into the future we see Max played by Mark Wahlberg floating to the bottom of the icy ocean, we hear ... Read More

This movie in my opinion wasn't that bad.I saw it with my boyfriend(who of course loved it)I kind of liked it too.Its totally a guy movie.If you liked Sin City,300,and/or Underworld then you would like this movie 100 percent.Its along those same lines with the action and the video game/comic book feel to it.I didn't love the movie but I liked it and it would be something to add to my collection without a doubt.Its interesting and it just basically a movie made for all those hard core video gamers or ...

This is a bad movie, but what did I expect?
The acting is fine. Wahlberg, Bridges, Ludacris, Kunis, and the others do a creditable job.
And of course the EFFECTS are smashing. But, it would seem, the better the special effects of a movie, the lamer the movie usually is. See "The Phantom Menace." Or if you have any sense, don't see it.
But the writing is atrocious.
This is to be expected. After all, it derives from a video game.

This is actually the first review I've ever written. But this movie was so bad, I had to write about it.
I love Max Payne the videogame. It revolutionized the 3rd person shooter. Built on really cool slow motion gun battles. So in my mind, the movie should revolutionize the slow motion shooter action movie. I understand "The Matrix" created the super cool shoot-outs, and Max Payne shouldn't copy them. But maybe create a new unique version of it, and build the movie on those.
Instead? ... Read More

Full of plot holes and bad acting. Some nice visuals every now and then though.
