4.0 out of 5 stars Ahead of its time. 19 Jan 2009
Format:DVD
A forgotten classic that's Dolphs best role after Rocky IV. Plenty of slick gun and martial arts action with a dark moody style and a decent enough cast and story to raise it above all the other 'VHS premier' Dolph action fodder.
If this film had had a proper blockbuster budget they wouldn't have bothered with the tame 2004 remake but for what it is this film is a forgotten gem and although ole Dolph acting is always a bit wooden this role really suits him and he follows it through with a real presence.
Its a shame it wasn't made today along with all the other comic book remakes but if a little dated it still holds its own especially with the great action scenes and is well worth a watch if you haven't already seen it.

5.0 out of 5 stars There can be only one Punisher! 23 Oct 2006
By Delicia
Format:DVD
The Punisher is big, brutal fun, beginning and ending with Dolph sitting butt nekkid in a sewer talking to God in a deep grumbling voice. Inbetween the two buttshots he looks ultra-cool in black leather, rides his motocycle a lot, kicks a mean punch, scowls and drives his former police buddy Luis Gosset into politically correct paroxysms saying things like:
"Work in progress." in reference to 125 gangsters killed in 5 years because:
"The guilty will be punished!"
That's really good to hear in these psychoanalytical social sciences times.
Forget the later softies flick taking in vain the name of Punisher. This is the one!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad for Dolph... 22 May 2006
Format:DVD
An above average Dolph movie, which, if you know nothing of the comic book (and I didn't until i saw the 2004 remake, which is, in places, a rather sanitised version) will keep you entertained as long as you aren't expecting an acting masterclass.

But my best advice to you is to read the review of the person just several places below me here. You'll know it instantly - the one with the numbered list of "mistakes" the makers of this film made. Hilarious. Atrocious spelling apart, I now have a good idea of what movie magazines refer to when they mention the "fanboys" who feel the need to pick holes in every aspect of the movie adaptions of comic books. Some people really have no grip on reality...

Sorry if you were expecting more of a dissection of the movie itself - but it's Dolph Lundgren, so it does what it says on the box. Remember, it's just an escapist action movie - not a monument to the ages. Worth a rental fee, but i would suggest spending your hard-earned money on a couple of decent books.

Dolph Lundgren cannot act. This film confirms the facts and although there is plenty of action, this film doesn't cut the mustard. Read more
