The Punisher - 1989

What It Is: The first attempt to bring Marvel's Punisher character to the big screen.

Why I Watched It: Dolph Lundgren in a deliciously bad 80's action movie, why not watch it?

What I Thought: The entire movie is just a poorly acted excuse to put Lundgren on the screen, killing a whole bunch of bad guys. And that's okay by me.

Although Lundgren is his typically horrible self, Louis Gossett Jr. is a treat.

Highlights: The speech about justice from the Punisher's perspective, the mafia's kidnapped children, villainesses in tight latex, and scores of Yakuza ninjas!

Who Should See It: Lundgren's following, comic fanboys, and action movie buffs.

How Soon: This movie can only get better with age.
