First & foremost, I've never played the video game, so I can't compare it to the game. But when I saw the preview I knew this was going to be a great movie. Mark Wahlberg was amazing as Max Payne, he made you feel what his character felt, and he's just an amazing actor in everything he's in. Mila Kunis was an awesome addition to the cast as the bad girl hit woman. Girls just because the movie is based off a game doesn't mean you won't enjoy it, I would recommend this movie to anyone, that's how great it was.
