Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This is how Punisher 2 should look like this film has even more gore than the Original beating people up with a Jack Daniels bottle and break peoples bones that is awesome. Ron Perlman even has a cameo and Thomas Jane returns as Punisher for this 10 minutes sequel. If you loved the 2004 film you might even like this more. I hope people could bring him back for a sequel maybe a 3rd film but we know that will never happen i hope he looks like this in Marvel's Daredevil. Frank Castle has always been a very great character and this mini sequel shows that. My Final Rating is a 9 out of 10 totally enjoyable and awesome and full of R- Rated kills.

There are many stereotypes and clichés in this 10-minute short film. A gang of thugs violently attacks women and children and a lone hero takes care of them, even if all he actually wanted to take care of was his laundry. Thomas Jane returns in this little movie as Frank Castle, the Punisher. Ron Perlman is in it as well and he is always a nice addition. He appears in the middle section, the first part of the film is about getting to know the characters, the last part are the fighting sequences then. I really hope we get "Hellboy 3" at some point. Anyway, Jane's character beats up all the bad guys, but the real punishment comes from somebody else at the end. Decent little short and I read that there might be a television series coming out soon, but it does not say if Jane is also starring in it. This short film here is a decent watch, nothing outstanding, but 10 minutes worth spending. Director and writer here are not very famous, but all in all they do a good job too. Also, I have not seen the feature film, but you don't need to to understand and appreciate this short movie. Recommended.

Excellent to see Frank Castle return, especially with Thomas Jane at the helm. I wasn't expecting too much when I stumbled on this short, however after seeing it, well, I want another Punisher movie with him in it! Part of Warzone's failure was that it just didn't carry off the dark and brooding atmosphere that Tom Jane projects. Aside from that, the atmosphere of the short itself is really nicely put together, from the exterior street shots to the dreary interiors.10/10 from me, cant see how this could've been better and let's just hope the studios realise that Tom Jane can be put to better use than bit parts in TV Shows and convince him to reprise his role in another big budget Punisher!

Watching The Punisher (2004) starring Thomas Jane was a fun ride. I thought a lot of the action sequences were well staged as were the acting and the music well written. My only quarrel with the film was that plot dragged slightly and how the moments of sadness in the weirdest places. Most of them dealt with Travolta's character. For example, when Howard Saint (Travolta) confronts a longtime friend about betraying him, as a villain, he should be livid, not emotionally distraught. The sadness that Jane displays is frequent too but it's forgivable since the reboot had to establish the fact that his family was gone. Thankfully, there's nothing like that in this ten-minute film. Eight years later, we find Thomas Jane back as Frank Castle just trying to do some laundry when he stumbles onto innocent blood being spilt. Need I say more? We all know what happens next; pure punishment. The difference between this film and the feature length remake that Jane starred in 2004 was the tone of the movie. The first dealt more with Castle's grief about the death of his family (which is understandable to a point). Here, Castle has accepted the fact that his family is gone and now could care less who he's hurting. And that's also the attitude of Ron Perlman's character whose just a store clerk. For the few lines he gave, it was something you wouldn't normally hear from a store clerk. All good acting though.I'm still not giving this short film a full ten stars because this wasn't a full feature length movie. There's obviously not enough to explore in ten minutes. Plus the fact that the blood was fake as well but what do you expect for a ten-minute film. The hand-to-hand combat is great to watch as is the improvised weapon Jane uses to break up a gang. The music, although I have no idea who scored it, sounded good and the ending was quite satisfying. Will this bring Jane back as Frank Castle? Right now, that's in the air but if it does end up coming to fruition, having it done this way would be a much better way to go.
