Max Payne Live-Action Comic

A live-action comic clip has been unveiled for the upcoming movie Max Payne:


MAX PAYNE
The Beginning


Ever hear the legend of the Valkyries?
Winged Norse deities who carried fallen heroes off to Valhalla?
Neither did I... Until half the junkies and low lifes in the city started showing up with these tattoos. What was left of them anyway.

I am a homicide detective.
For 10 years I've been paid to find answers.
This time the answers found me.
And nothing would ever be the same.

Three years earlier... I had it all.
A career I was good at, a beautiful wife and baby boy: the American dream come true.

But dreams have a nasty habit of becoming nightmares when you're not looking. I remember everything about that night... except what happened.
Something was there... But it sure as Hell wasn't an angel.
I knew the sun would come tomorrow and I knew I would be alone to see it.

In a nightmare every choice you make is the wrong one.

I used to think my family died for my sins now I think they died for someone else's.
For me this case will never go cold.

I've spent my whole life pursuing justice...
NOW I WANT REVENGE!

This Max Payne live-action comic featurette sheds a new light on the movie: actually I'm even starting to appreciate the choice of Mark Wahlberg as Max Payne.

Here below an extended trailer of Max Payne which has been recently released:


MAX PAYNE

This full length Max Payne trailer looks promising. But I am not sure that Mark Wahlberg was the best choice to interpret the role of Max Payne though. Well, at least there is a Max Payne movie by now!

Max Payne First Official trailer

Max PayneMax Payne is an upcoming action movie, based on the popular video game franchise of the same name. The film is directed by John Moore and is starring Mark Wahlberg in the role of NYPD detective Max Payne.

Here below the first official Max Payne trailer:


The Plot:
"The plot will be based on the plot of the first Max Payne game, but with certain differences and some new characters:

Three years prior to the movie's beginning, tragedy struck NYPD detective Max Payne (Wahlberg) when his wife and daughter were murdered; the killers were never found.

In the present, a series of murders arises that bear resemblance to the method in which Payne's wife was killed. Investigating the matter further and realizing that the two cases are connected, Payne comes into conflict with the police department, a sister of one of the victims (Kunis), the local mafia, and a prospering drug manufacturing corporation." (Source: Wikipedia)

For those who are not expert of Max Payne's universe, the flying creatures are the Valkyries. They appear to people who use Valkyr, a drug made by Aesir for the military (Deep Six project) to replicate the effects of berserker rage in soldiers.

The basic storyline of Max Payne the movie is the same as in the first video game but with little tweaks here and there as we said. Unfortunately for some diehard fans the film Max Payne will be a mere PG-13 movie while the game was rated M...

The film is starring Mark Wahlberg as Max Payne: I prefer to see him as a NYPD detective than as a terrified shool teacher in The Happening...
