I read some Punisher Comics and really liked them for their dark atmosphere and more or less discussing that whole thing about if it's OK or not to take justice in your own hands. And guess what? That was not a topic at all in this movie. And why did they have to team up Punisher and Black Widow? I have no idea, they don't really fit together... So the story is basically to stop the evil organization Leviathan from doing a very bad thing. The cool thing is that I liked the idea of this organization cause it was kinda vaguely described and fitted quite well as a placeholder for the Freemasons, Zionists elites, mafia or whoever really controls major crime stuff like weapon and human trafficking in our world. So the antagonist concept worked for me but the execution lacked. The movie starts OK but gets worse and worse, worst point the ending where suddenly some of the Avengers appear and they barely say a word and they are seriously unnecessary for the plot. So that was just a marketing thing I guess. Another thing is why does it have to be an anime style movie? I really don't know but the animation was well done so it's OK yet not the way it should be. This whole movie feels a lot like an 80s action movie and I think that's why I like it but it can't reach the emotional deepness and suspense that many DC animations reached so far - and I'm saying this as a true Marvel fan.

Marvel never stood for dark and gloomy brutality, mutilation and mass murder / serial killings. So this movie simply uses popular characters in order to produce a gore-like film. It sucked at the beginning, it sucked in the middle and it sucked at the end...Just because most kids nowadays have the IQ of an ice-cube and are trained to watch everything that is lowest quality does not give anyone the right to produce such a perversion of a film. Nothing but mayhem and slaughter, worst dialogue possible and more like that.Its an insult to anyone who appreciates true stories and art well done. This movie only serves as the best example of one of the worst movies.

this masterpiece is a bitingly satirical take on the superhero anime adaptationism.it does a hilariously great job emulating the distinct flaws that the genre is known for; from the lack of emotion and movement in the characters' faces, to the unnecessary, egregious and distracting 3d animation, to the pointless romantic interest turned villain plot line which no one who watches these films cares about.i especially liked the out of nowhere appearances from the hulk, iron man, thor the god guy and that annoying nerd kid, it made my inner fanboy write fanfiction with delight.i respect the representation of homosexuals in the form of the punisher who wore eyeshadow and black lipstick a lot in the moviealso it sucked 10/10

It was impossible to review this film because I fell asleep halfway and couldn't bring myself to continue.Yes. It's THAT bad...and I'm a fan of comic-book animated films having watched most films in the genre.I'm told that the Avengers do show up in the last 10 minutes. The challenge is to get through the drivel leading up to those 10 minutes. It seems Marvel is overplaying the drama between Punisher and Black Widow - but they are just not compelling enough to keep one engaged. After 10 minutes I felt as if I was watching an animated soap opera.AVOID.
