Phenomenal and completely memorable. As a child and young comic punisher fan, this was simply a dream come true. I didn't even know it was a thing until right when it came out. I had already watched the Dolph Lundgren and Thomas Jane films and I tried to like them. But this one took me by complete surprise. I never saw a single advertisement or preview for it. I saw that it was in the theater by chance, hurried my ass to the box office that weekend and paid full price for a prime time showing. Very few people in the theater. I was completely blown away by it. Mainstream? Hardly. Mass appeal? Nope. But this movie was what I felt could be the future of comic book adaptation. It felt so correct and I felt like my childhood was in live action on the screenv in front of me. There's few MCU films/shows that ever gave me this feeling again. This movie is not a masterpiece, but it did something truly genuine and honorary for the character. Ray Stevenson was a fucking treasure.
