The Punisher

I’m not a huge fan of comic book based films. I usually like them, but since I’m not a comic book nerd, I know a lot is lost on me. This one is about a guy that retires from the FBI special ops and goes to a family reunion before his family is moved to London. The bad guys, led by John Travolta, track the Punisher down and kill his whole family at the reunion. The Punisher then goes on a rampage to avenge his family’s death and blows up a lot of stuff. It’s got lots of glass and explosions, so I really liked it a lot. I don’t think I lost much of the context by not knowing the original comic, so that worked out well for me. Great film that kind of surprised me.
