“Punisher 4K” is an unusual comic book. In it there is no bombast, glossiness and exaggeration of events, which components often have in average statistical comic books. And anyway, if it were not for the original magazine prototype, then it’s unlikely anyone would have guessed that we are facing screening. Rather, “Punisher” is similar to a very high-quality insurgent, telling the story of one person whose family is mercilessly killed by mercenaries of one influential mafia. A former FBI agent, Frank Castle, survives the bloody slaughter, and now he has only one goal in life, to avenge the death of his loved ones. Will he be able to go through a very difficult path of revenge without dying? And if all the same revenge – will he bring revenge peace? The answer is obvious in principle, but the way this process is shown to us deserves great praise. After all, there are a lot of stories about revenge in the cinema, but “Punisher” proves that with a competent approach to the material, any template or stereotype can easily turn into a very high-quality product …
The film “The Punisher”, became the directorial debut of Jonathan Hensley, who previously worked as a screenwriter on such projects as “The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones”, “Die Hard 3: Retribution”, “Jumanji”, “Armageddon” and “The Prophet”. And we must admit that the debut turned out to be very strong. I can not say that the “Punisher UHD” has no flaws – it’s absolutely not so, but it has more advantages in it, and besides all the shortcomings are obscured by an excellent dynamics and a clear rhythm of the tape, which does not get off from the beginning to the end from the planned pace. But unfortunately, the Punisher, with its thirty-odd million-dollar budget, did not get the right box office result, which Hensley had to shoot his next work for television, which he obviously does not deserve, although this year his second work a great movie “Irishman”, which will give the director a second chance. It’s no wonder that “The Punisher 4K” failed at the box office – paintings made in such a style, even under the guise of a comic strip, are somewhat outdated in the fashion of cinema. I’m sure this film appeared in the 90’s (especially at the beginning of these), the tape would undoubtedly pay off.
The picture looks like a retro not only in its content, but also in form. For example, in “Punisher Ultra HD” there are no obvious special effects that would tamp the tape into fantasy and improbability – all the effects are created by means of chic stunt tricks, real explosions, not artificial hand-to-hand fights – everything looks very natural, which makes the viewing insanely fascinating and exciting – here the viewer is not so sure that for Frank’s character everything will end well, because he is not endowed with super abilities or any telepathic data. And here I want to note a remarkable hit in the role of Thomas Jane. His Frank definitely has an inner core and charisma. He seems to be an ordinary guy of many, but this habit is somewhat unusual, since Frank has a huge willpower, fighting spirit and a dedicated soul that will stop at nothing until it achieves justice. He wants peace, but he does not know how to achieve it, after all, it seemed that after the death of the family, everything suddenly collapsed in his soul. Now he is preparing for war, but again, he does not know what he will bring, and will the world enter his soul? ..
By the way, the cast is not only good for Jane. John Travolta, as always, is beautiful in the image of a mafia – his gait, movements, looks and speech – literally emanate charisma and charm. Let his hero is too stereotypical and some of his actions are somewhat illogical, but in general – this is a very strong image, organically fit into the plot. Just like to mention Laura Harring – she played the role of Travolta Liv’s wife and was insanely good in the image of a haughty wife of a large mafia. Nothing special about her game was observed, but for some reason even a simple presence on the screen, occasionally without any words, created a certain aura of mystery and intrigue. Probably just the external brightness of the actress, so appropriately lay on her own image in the film, which looked very organic and aroused in me a deep sympathy. But Rebekka Romin looked painfully wooden – yes, she is a very attractive actress and not once proved that she is quite competent in her profession, but Joan’s role is something from the category of sleepy and emotionless being on the screen, which looks, well, neither. And maybe it’s about script writers who could not properly describe the nature of the heroine. Many scenes in the picture are very spectacular and exciting, I especially want to highlight Frank’s fight with the Russian boogai played by Kevin Nash – this episode is excellent in everything from excellent staging to the naturalistic effect of the duel, which looked like one breath. And finally, I want to mention the musical component of the film – the soundtrack as a whole is very good, but the main musical theme of the film, especially has to itself, its beautiful and atmospheric sound.
