The weird angel things I keep seeing better be from his V trips.

It has potential, but yeah, the winged things had best be hallucinations / nightmare material only.

**Procurator**

Eh. Looks a bit weird and too far from the original plot. The winged things must be a reference to 'the flesh of fallen angels' - if they're some sort of supernatural entity in the film I'm going to do something nasty to the people involved. Then again, the trailer for Hitman looked like it had some sort of religious theme to it, and it actually had nothing of the sort.

If they include the proper Max Payne theme tune or anything by Poets of the Fall, all will be forgiven.

I hope it follows the same story telling device as the game, kind of comic book style and heavy on the psychological aspect, it was great that game, but the baby part freaked me out...

I never wanted to play the game again after that part.

More bullet time please.

I see so many video games turned into movies in production right now. Hopefully, they will turn out good.

Having my doubts on this. The game is so great, I'm scared they will ruin it, so so scared.

**ShiXinFeng**

Marky Mark better do something with it; his career is circling.

Hitman was a freakin awesome movie.... this movie looks good too, so I hope it is

You mean the walking the trails of blood and listening to the baby cry. I always hated it when I went the wrong way and you hear that horrible scream. Yeah...that was *CENSORED* up.

My hopes aren't too high for these three reasons:

1. PG-13 rating: Almost every Hollywood PG-13 movie (except for Pirates of the Carribean, Star Wars Episode 3, and Lord of the Rings) since 2001 royally sucked. Jet Li's The One left a lot to be desired. Aliens Versus Predator 1 sucked badly by being neutered. Die Softly (my insult for Die Hard 4) sucked because it ended up on the same boat as Aliens Versus Predator, especially when it had Bruce Willis resort to dodging cars literally flying at him, or climbing an in-flight fighter jet. Max Payne was notorious for an M-rating, and it shouldn't have to be neutered just for the sake of "broadening the audience."

2. Game characters are replaced by movie original characters for no justifiable reason. Other than Lupino getting a larger role, Woden, Puchinello, and Vlad are removed from the script, and so far, there are rumors that Robin (i.e. Chris O'Donnell) is going to be replacing Woden's role as Max's informant about the Nicole Horne arc.

3. It's made by the guy that made Behind Enemy Lines. Behind Enemy Lines was average, or below average at best not only in terms of story (I expected a Metal Gear-style infiltration focusing on saving Owen Wilson, rather than focusing the entire movie on Owen Wilson getting out of the area.), but the action felt too half-assed on the same level as S.W.A.T. (i.e. All Serbian Troopers are as bad as standard issue Stormtroopers from the Star Wars franchise).

**Dripping-Cheese**

I don't think Uwe Boll has anything to do with this one, so I think it'll be ok!

**shearman**

Maybe the movie will do well, and maybe I'm in the minority, but there were so many rumors about Max Payne 3 that still have never panned out. I wish they would have done that instead of this.

Since i am a big fan of Max Payne,the trailer didn't impress me...Maybe it's because i have high expectations of this!We'll see i guess.
