Fresh and Exciting

Excellent adaptation.

As Good As It Gets

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

let me explain the main motivation of the evil scientist behind this movie after not good enough for his girlfriend black widow, the man decides to fake his death, join a terrorist organization, kidnaps people and experiment on them.then later after he talks to girlfriend he immediately changes his mind and tries to destroy everything he made. so its to bad for the guy that he never talked to anybody about his plan or just thought it over for a minute over the many months it must took to do this.oh there more wrong with this movie like normal humans walking through fire, guards not getting on radio when there buddies are dead, there so many things wrong this movie just save yourself and to people who say they liked this movie i don't get u, how its like watching a grown man slowly eaten by ants and just letting it happen how can you defend this movie! its worse then batman and robin it worse then German scat bondage porn

Marvel never stood for dark and gloomy brutality, mutilation and mass murder / serial killings. So this movie simply uses popular characters in order to produce a gore-like film. It sucked at the beginning, it sucked in the middle and it sucked at the end...Just because most kids nowadays have the IQ of an ice-cube and are trained to watch everything that is lowest quality does not give anyone the right to produce such a perversion of a film. Nothing but mayhem and slaughter, worst dialogue possible and more like that.Its an insult to anyone who appreciates true stories and art well done. This movie only serves as the best example of one of the worst movies.

I wasn't expecting much when I turned this on. After the magnificent show of the Avengers, it's hard to elaborate on the fringes of the Marvel Universe. However, this movie goes to show that even the fringes can be as exciting as the main course.Focusing on the Black Widow and Punisher, this movie was clearly made by a Japanese anime fan for all the anime fans out there. And it doesn't get too aloof with the fact that it is quite anime. I am not a purist, but this was an exciting romp with a little twist of Japanese. Kind of like a light beer with a wedge of lemon.You get a decent enough storyline, punctuated with fast fight scenes and the Black Widow twisting herself into impossible routines, for your pleasure. The fight scenes are pretty much the highlight of the movie, with the story taking a bit of a back seat, so don't expect award winning script writing.You will find the dialog a bit cheesy, but we are dealing with a comic book story line. I feel it doesn't detract too much from what the movie is intended to be, purely a popcorn munching, time passing movie. I would probably watch it again in a few years, just to refresh myself.Graphics are standard Japanese anime, with Black Widow looking thoroughly like what a animator would have imagined her to look, svelte with flowing hair. Punisher gets beefed up and looks precisely like the comics.Voice acting in my opinion was spectacular. I enjoyed Jennifer Carpenter doing Black Widow - barely recognized her from her Dexter days, but it's definitely her. Brian Bloom gives a great performance as a gruff talking Frank Castle, reminds me of some of his work on A-Team in 2010.My advice is to watch this with an open, clear mind. Don't expect to see world class action scenes, with Joss Whedon witty banter. It's a Japanese anime mixed into the Marvel Universe and it gets a fair storyline through.At the end, it's a 5 dollar thrill ride on a roller coaster at a local fairground. Gets the job done, for a good price.I give this 10/10 for exceeding my expectations and having a solid casting and believable storyline.Kudos to the filmmakers.

When I saw the title I thought it was going to be more of a Black Widow/Punisher story than anything and I was right I thought it made Punisher look like the bad*** that he is but it wasn't much of the Avengers the last 10-15 minutes had the Avengers appear which was for me the best part but the long drawn out story with Punisher and Black Widow was kinda dry more talking than anything it was somewhat boring but it was nice to see Punisher get to show how great he is the used Avengers in the name to get the dollars but it should have been called "Black Widow and the Punisher: Fight the Lavethian" ft. The Avengers cause that is pretty much what it was if it wasn't for the free ticket to see The Amazing Spiderman 2 that came with it I would be somewhat upset that I spent money on it
