I'll say it now and I'll say it again - just because it was a great video game doesn't mean it'll equate into a great movie. That said, Max Payne is still decent, despite straying a few blocks away from what it should have been. For one, the casting of Marc Walberg as Max Payne is an excellent choice - if only he played the part correctly. Instead of the insane emo maniac from the video game (with the crazy facial expressions when he fired those firearms), we have a completely emo and flat character with no emotions at all. He's just... well... emo. And that's not the Max Payne we all know and love. Ashame really, with all the production value and great editing, that Marc had to give such a lifeless performance, sinking this movie to lower than average score. 7.1/10.
