I had hoped for more action and shoot'em up, but I believe the beginning and end sequences of the movie pretty much ran up all the budget, and Lexi ran out of actors and stunt doubles casted as the goons.
But basically I liked the acting and the story. Frank Castle played by Ray Stevenson was great. Ray Stevenson's portrayal of the Punisher is a lot more like the image from the comic. Its AMAZING, It feels almost as if Lexi Alexander read the Punisher comic novel and gave birth to a perfect actor who can play the Punisher in her gruesomely violent action movie.
Putting aside the violence and action, Lexi adds more into the characters. Frank Castle is a man who lost everything and becomes completely ruthless, but Lexi alters the story a little bit. She opens up the kindhearted side of Frank -- his softness to the innocenct. And because of the overboard humorous brotherhood between Jigsaw and his Psycho brother, Looney Bin Jim.
But in general the story was decent and I liked all the violence and humor. I'm a huge fan of the Punisher, so I'll give this movie and the work of Lexi Alexander, Ray Stevenson and Dominic West, a (9 out of 10)
AND THERE BETTER BE A SEQUEL!
