Carl’s Movie Mini-Review: Max Payne

So. There was a series of events. That were, for the great majority, expedient in arriving at their intended goal. No time for any distractions, we’re here for business. In and out!

Also. There were many things you expect to be said in one of these cop dramas. Since you’ve heard it all already, they didn’t need to deliver it well; it’s ground you’re already familiar with.

Fortunately things got a little more exciting once Max started tripping out on drugs. I was very worried that there wouldn’t be Paynekiller-popping.

So here’s the moral of the story: Sure, everyone else goes through horrible shit when on drugs; life’s a living hell. But if you’re totally emo, taking some drugs can make you an unstoppable super hero! Regular people and happy druggies die from just one bullet, but your pharmaceutically-enhanced emo veil of darkness protects you from all kinds of harm, no sweat!

Be sure to stay for the scene at the end where Tony Stark walks into a moody bar to propose a partnership.
