Indeed, this is very true
I can never really decide if the "campy-ness" of the movie works or not. Seen it like a dozen times.
Screw the haters, this movie was so much fun.
The russian fight is awesome, you can feel Frank's frustration with this unstoppable monster.

Such a great take on The Punisher where he…eh…rubs an ice pop on a guy's back.
Brutal!
That said me and gf still jokingly say "God's gonna sit this one out" to each other so I guess we've been doing that for 20 years.

I liked that one of Frank's big plans is to give a guy parking tickets.
Yeah, modern movies would have Frank pull some random martial arts out to win. Instead of him just flailing around an apartment trying to get weapons
Decent action flick but only an okay Punisher film.
Jane is great and that apartment fight with the sailor is a blast.

It's maybe not a great movie, but you remember the good and fun parts. It's got character. And Harry Heck and The Russian.
The fight against the latter reminds me of Raising Arizona.

Ironically The Punisher's is funnier and goofier than the comedy's. Although H.I. ends his better.

Frank vs the Russian is still an all time fight scene for me. I fucking love how ridiculous and over the top it all is.
When he uses the dumb bell to bend the barrel I always laugh.

Haven't seen Warzone, haven't watched the Netflix Punisher, and don't read Punisher comics.
Honestly, I still enjoy this movie a lot. I know it's really not very good, but still.

The first half of the movie is directed like some lost 80s action movie in the best way possible, but it runs out of steam for me once he befriends the neighbors and starts plotting. The director's cut is even more bloated. Love Will Patton in it, and Laura Harring is good with her limited time.
I still consider this the best Punisher film, and Thomas Jane is still my favorite version of Frank Castle. I remember I had a decision to make whether or not to see it or Kill Bill Volume 2 with my girlfriend at the time because they were opening against each other in 2004. They needed a better person than Travolta to play Howard Saint though.

TJ Punisher > Lundgren Punisher > Warzone
Yes, I hate Warzone that much. It's full of dumb violence and schlock for some Punisher fans but I enjoyed TJ's as kind of a "year one" Punisher take because he hasn't gone off the deep end yet and is still kind of a reasonable person to not just have a body count for the sake of it.
Bernthal is best Punisher, as the role, but I'm twisty on whether I enjoy the show itself so much.

Pretty good movie, it was my introduction to the Punisher. Though I prefer Jane's voice performance in the video game. Either way, he was awesome in the role.
One of the better Marvel movies
Love that it was mostly old school action/stunts as opposed to green screen TV acting (current MCU).
