Didn't realize there was so much demand for this.
YESSSS Been waiting for this on 4K and really happy to see it support Dolby Vision & Atmos. In my opinion, this is one of the most accurate comic book movies ever made. It had everything, in classic comic form. Gratuitous ultra-violence, cheesy dialogue, hacky acting, seedy NY backdrop, a grizzled Castle who is beaten & cranky, etc. It was literally a Punisher MAX comic book but in movie form. It was ike an 80s movie that was really embellishing the source material and having fun with it and was also, surprisingly, very competently directed (I would like to see her direct more action movies). This movie was not going for awards or accolades, it was going for ripping the character off the books (at least the MAX runs) and throwing him on screen.
I enjoyed the Thomas Jane Punisher for what it was and it was probably a better "movie" than Warzone, but nowhere near as much fun or over-the-top. Bernthal is by far the most "realistic" Punisher and very competently portayed and I loved the series but still, when it comes down to a distilled 2-hour Punisher experience, it doesn't get more Punisher than Punisher War Zone.
I will look forward to picking this up and giving it a watch, I love The Punisher!
No thanks...I'm too used to Bernthal at this point...
Ive heard some debate about which was the better Punisher movie, this one or the Thomas Jane one... And, frankly pun intended I like em both, for different reasons. Ive yet to see either the Dolph Lundgren movie,or the Netflix series. So, Im not in any position to pick a best of the bunch. But, Im happy enough with the DVDs I have of the two aforementioned.

Yup, one of my favorite parts of the movie. I actually enjoyed this movie, it was very low budget but that actually helped it looked more gritty. It could have been a whole lot better but to me this is the version that best aligns with how I picture Punisher to be.
Is this the one where a Dreadlocked goon Jump-Flips into a missle?
The Netflix Punisher is my favorite live action version of the character, but I still enjoyed Warzone. Ray Stevenson was a solid Frank Castle.
For $22.99 this is a steal. I can just imagine how much more gruesome Jigsaw is going to look in this version of the film. I hope this version does it justice.
