Six pictures from the upcoming “
Max Payne” have been released one day after trailer pop up on-line.
In the film,
Mark Wahlberg plays Max Payne, a former NYPD Detective with internal and external conflicts in a dark, sinister New York City. Max Payne joins the DEA after his baby daughter and wife are slaughtered in their house by psychotic junkies, high on a new designer drug. Tracking the drug to the mafia, Payne is framed for the murder of his partner and becomes entwined in a heavy conspiracy. The series is known for its
Matrix-like bullet-time, graphic violence and profanity. With all of that the movie is slated for a PG-13 rating, am I the only one in the world who wants this to be an R rated movie, after all it’s based on an M rated game.
John Moore, whose most recent projects include the war actioner “
Behind Enemy Lines“, the horror remake “
The Omen“, and the airborne adventure “
Flight of the Phoenix“, is directing from a script by Beau Thorne.
“Max Payne” is scheduled to hit theaters on October 17th. [Via
