Viewers can judge for themselves whether it deserved such low ratings. newsMaciej Gaffke06 October 2023 Source: Max Payne, dir. John Moore, 20th Century Fox, 2008i Today, October 6, marks the release of Max Payne, movie adaptation of the hit video game of the same name, on Disney+. Unfortunately, the movie did not repeat the success of the 2001 original and was judged very harshly by both critics and ordinary viewers. The movie was not even helped by the big movie stars. Recall that Max Payne was played by Mark Wahlberg, and Mona Sax by Mila Kunis. The movie was directed by John Moore, and Beau Thorne was responsible for the script. The movie debuted in 2008 and was instantly crushed by critics. On Rotten Tomatoes the title received only 16% positive reviews from experts. Let's note that 137 reviews were issued. The situation is no better with viewer ratings. The movie appealed to only 29% of more than a hundred thousand viewers. Such numbers are definitely not a good advertisement for the adaptation and may discourage people from watching. However, fans of Max Payne's adventures and lovers of thrillers should be interested in the production, which can already be viewed on the aforementioned streaming platform. To give you a bit of an idea of the plot, let's quote a short description posted on Disney+: "Max Payne is an individualist cop who doesn't give a damn about any rules and has practically nothing to lose. Thirsting for revenge for the brutal murder of his family, Payne wants to track down the perpetrators at all costs." Finally, another reminder that the second season of Loki also debuts today on Disney+. For now, Marvel fans can watch the first episode of this show.
