  Max Payne

  First let me say I am a HUGE Mark Wahlberg fan. I have seen every movie he has made (except the new "The Happening" but I will) and still have my "Marky Mark" cd. Perhaps it is because I had huge expectations of Max Payne (it having Mark, the soundtrack and clips shown in the trailers) but I was disappointed in the movie.

  I have never played the video game it is based on (and in fact haven't ever seen the game played) but I really hope the the game isn't as slow paced as the movie.

  It seemed to me like the first hour and some odd minutes were spent setting up the storyline then the final half hour was the awesome action I was expecting from the whole movie. If they could have summed up the first hour in the opening of the movie and spent the time in the action I would have enjoyed it more, as it was I was debating taking a nap. I will say my teenage sons and their friends enjoyed the movie a lot.

  For me though I came home and watched my dvd of the The Shooter where I saw, IMO, a much better Mark Wahlberg movie.
