[Feature] Max Payne: The Movie Primer

When I wrote this feature earlier in the week for GameDaily, I still believed. I believe that maybe, just once, we’d get a decent flick based upon a video game favorite. I was wrong. So horribly, horribly wrong.

For gamers, the thought of their favorite characters becoming Hollywood stars conjures such horrific film failures such as Super Mario Bros, Double Dragon and any Uwe Boll flick. This time, however, early trailers and promotional materials have struck the right chord with fans.

Well, that much is still true, am I right? Anyway, enjoy the piece.

    i suspect the storyline for Max Payne is a lot more exciting when it’s happening in the form of a video game… except for those few exciting parts that i already saw in the preview, it was a snoozefest
