Scoop: Max Payne (Mark Wahlberg) is a maverick cop--a mythic anti-hero--determined to track down those responsible for the brutal murders of his family and partner. Hell-bent on revenge, his obsessive investigation takes him on a nightmare journey into a dark underworld. As the mystery deepens, Max is forced to battle enemies beyond the natural world and face an utter betrayal.
If a Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words, We Say: The background bird. The elevated gun. The leather jacket. Revenge. Mark Wahlberg. There has to be some measure of cool to this flick.
Snapshot Prediction: 3.5 out of 5 stars
