Max Payne

Screening on 16th Oct 2008

Synopsis:
Adapted from the Max Payne video game, it follows a New York cop whose wife and baby are killed by thugs high on a designer drug called Valkyr. Devastated, Max Payne joins the Drug Enforcement Agency and goes undercover with the mob to find the source of the drug. Framed for the murder of his partner and hunted down by both the mob and the police, he is forced to wage a one-man war against crime.

I have kinda high anticipation for this 2 movies. Remember "Ong Bak"? The same director will be directing Fury. This lead actress really knows Muay Thai and not just acting! Max Payne is a game I played before. Not a bad game but surely involve violence. I still remember the molotov cocktails I tossed to the bad guys(coz I'm Max Payne). They sure being cooked well. The game is fun to play with a special mode that can allows you in a "Matrix like" mode with slow-mo for you to shoot down your enemies. Maybe, the director will implement this in the movie as well?
