This doesn't look like complete shit. Wow.

 

[JCtheMC]

CGI Explosions? Dude.

 

[JaCy]

It doesn't look that bad, I want to see it.

 

[Timber]

I love Max Payne so much I can see myself enjoying this movie no matter how dreadful it may turn out :lol

Some of the lines from the trailer - like the boy past the graveyard and the when a man loses everything bits - are from the game and I got all excited when i heard them. although i have to say the delivery is better in the games

I wonder how MP3 is coming along...

 

[Fuzz Rez]

After two recent horrendous game related movies (RE3 and Hitman) I'm glad to say this actually looks pretty good.

 

[eshwaaz]

Mila Kunis is Mona Sax? Hm...

 

[Busty]

Meh. Looks OK. Nothing that really leavs an impression negative or positive.

Oh Mila Kunis. Let me count the ways I love thee.

But I'm afraid you look like you're horribly miscast in this movie sweetheart.

And as if this movie needed another kiss of death.....

Spoiler

....doesn't Chris O' Donnell play the bad guy. Pfffft

 

[Timber]

Mila Kunis is Mona Sax? Hm...

She looks the part, for sure. I don't know her from anything but that 70s show, though, where she has that whiney voice. Mona's voice is very sexy and seductive. I don't think I've ever heard Kunis' real voice so I'm not sure about that. But that shot of her in the elevator is so, so cool.

She voices Meg (the daughter) in Family Guy. I really like Mila Kunis and was impressed with her in Forgetting Sarah Marshall but I'm really not seeing her in this.

However, we shall see.

 

[VibratingDonkey]

Seems more comic-bookey than expected, or Sin City-ish, rather. But then of course I don't really know what I was expecting, if anything. And granted Max Payne shares some similarities with Sin City, but I dunno. I guess a more stylistic approach could perhaps be the best way to portray the more corny aspects of Max Payne. It does seem to get the noir and monlogue aspects of the games right anyway.

Mark Wahlberg better not pull a The Happening on us, he was god awful in the movie. Worst delievered lines ever.

Oh my God, it's the same!! I thought she was just greatly exaggering it in that 70s show. Oh well

 

[Ash Sparrow]

Its driving me crazy whats the black guy saying at 27 seconds

Max Payne is looking for something that God what?

 

[Ghost]

Its driving me crazy whats the black guy saying at 27 seconds

Max Payne is looking for something that God doesn't want found.

 

[Ash Sparrow]

Is he speaking in a different language because it doesnt sound anything like something God doesnt want found.

Thanks though

 

[Ash Sparrow]

Okay stay hidden i hear it now

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

does'nt look that bad actually

 

[firehawk12]

Was Mona in the first game? Or is this just a combination of the two games?

 

[S1kkZ]

Was Mona in the first game? Or is this just a combination of the two games?

its a mix, but its mostly max payne 1 (valkyr, maxs wife and child killed by valkyr junkies) with some new stuff.

(the script leaked a few months ago)

 

[Joseph Merrick]

she wasn't. edit: oh wait, she was

 

[rollingstart]

Doesn't look bad. Reminds me of Constantine if anything.

linkity link link?

 

[S1kkZ]

linkity link link?

sorry, couldnt find it anymore(i read it in april). theres only a german review of the script left.

 

[Sol..]

looks awesome.

I really want to see what the winged creatures are about......that doesn't seem like something they would just randomly throw into the movie. I'm guessing it's just max being crazy like usual, but thats what the tripped out dream sequences were for.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

That looked entertaining. Interested now.

 

[Lakitu]

What are those flying things? Dream sequence?

 

[S1kkZ]

What are those flying things? Dream sequence?

valkyr hallucinations and part of maxs dreams.

 

[BeEatNU]

doesn't look bad at all, I like the feel of it.

 

[Timber]

valkyr hallucinations and part of maxs dreams.

wooot

 

[firehawk12]

she wasn't. edit: oh wait, she was

Yep, just checked. Completely forgot she was in the first game.

 

[AlStrong]

[Wizman23]

Ok cool a movie but where the fuck is Max Payne 3?

 

[i was liek wtf]

They weren't suitable for the game either, those dream sequences sucked balls.

shameful

 

[Blutonium]

Ok cool a movie but where the fuck is Max Payne 3?

Go see this movie and it will be made.

 

[Mr. Durden]

Well to be honest the trailer was kinda awesome. But I don't know if it's really Max Payne yet.
The black dude talking in the beginning, isn't that Marlo Stanfield (The Wire?)

 

[Joseph Merrick]

Completely forgot she was in the first game.

hehe. me too

 

[Alien Bob]

Flying demon things >>> neon tightrope mazes

 

[Warm Machine]

Ok cool a movie but where the fuck is Max Payne 3?

Rumor is that it is being made right now. That trailer looked excellent.

 

[Timber]

Rumor is that it is being made right now.

I wonder what Rockstar studio is doing it. They don't really have much announced besides the new Midnight Club, GTAIV DLC and Beaterator.

 

[metsallica]

Why do you assume it would be a Rockstar studio and not Remedy themselves?

PS: We need a HD version of this trailer, stat.

They have their hands full with Alan Wake?

 

[Timber]

Take Two owns the IP, and there have been rumours of Rockstar doing MP3. Remedy is focussing all their efforts on Alan Wake, and I'm sure there will be a game close to the movie's release.

 

[Sanjay]

This looks more or less just like the games. 17th October 2008 can't come soon enough.

 

[Odrion]

the fuck are those flying things?

THE FLESH OF FALLEN ANGELS

 

[Nemo]

Mark Wahlberg? Good choice! Also Jamie Hecor ftw!

 

[metsallica]

Hadn't heard those rumors. I certainly hope they're false, or at least that Remedy has people overseeing MP3. Really, though, I want them to have two teams working simultaneously.

Alan Wake isn't vaporware? Kidding, actually very much looking forward to playing it while listening to Chinese Democracy.

 

[{Mike}]

Hitman was good

 

[MWS Natural]

Well to be honest the trailer was kinda awesome. But I don't know if it's really Max Payne yet.

Naw I thought he was the white guy talking in the middle....

Anyways....Day 1.

 

[Odrion]

Also that shot of the checkerboard floor, I believe that's right out of Max Payne as well.

I like what I see in this film so far, my biggest concern isn't the cast's appearance (because they do look the part) but how they sound.

 

[Somnia]

I think it looks like it could be a really good action flick with some story unlike Hitman.
