The movie MAX Payne has got some greatest style filled action scenes but the specious story line and excess direction makes it a sheer waste of time. Here the ostensible cop Mark Wahlberg is still fighting with the inner turmoil of loosing the family of wife and child is investigating number of murders. Mila Kunis is the costar who is a hired gun frantically seeking for revenge for her own purposes. In this standard movie of settling of scores there is some bizarre entwine. The root story of the video game is hidden well.

Mark Wahlberg is in search of the executioner of his pregnant wife three years back. While he is on the search he is faced with the trouble of some drug that is mercilessly killing people consuming it. Max encounter some apparition involved in this activity and the turn of events associate him towards the death of eye-catching strumpet from Russia. He feels that the whole event has some connections with the murder of his wife. As he is being decided on his previous partner by Donal Logue gets killed while providing clues. Mila Kunis is totally miscast here though she is looking good.

There are several other artists trying to help in solving the mystery. Everything seemed to be quite predictable. But John Moore does place some good fight scenes. The movie is not a great reworked copy of the Max Payne videogame and the acting can be watched though not highly commendable and the everlasting grimace on the actor’s face is weird. But the movie could have been made at least somewhat interesting as the video game is. The translation has several weak points with very little exclusion. The movie has been directed by John Moore and Beau Thorne has done the screenplay.
