Punisher War Zone #1
(No Ratings Yet)The latest Punisher movie may suck, but Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon’s return to the character looks to be just as bizarre, entertaining and possibly even more disturbing than their original run.
“THE RESURRECTION OF MA GNUCCI,” PART 1 The latest offering from the red-hot Marvel Knights line is a weekly-shipping 6-part limited sequel to their legendary story arc, “Welcome Back, Frank.” It all starts when two mobsters take a trip to the zoo and piss off the wrong monkey. Limbs are lost (the kind you can’t easily replace), vultures are fed (with said appendages), and then things get, like, really crazy. Like back-from-the-dead crazy. That’s right — she’s back and she wants payback. Ma Gnucci. Eighty-five pounds of hairless, armless, legless evil.

I bet it will be a lot better than Punisher War Zone the movie – which opened abysmally, coming in at #8 over the weekend with a mere 4 Million.
Newsarama explains the poor reception to the following…
the weekend after Thanksgiving is traditionally a soft box office weekend, the movie had no bankable stars, and War Zone suffered from nearly unanimous poor reviews from critics, scoring only a 17% (4/10) on Rotten Tomatoes.com which averaged 65 reviews.
But fails to mention that there have been 2 other Punisher movies before and neither of them was all that big a hit either. Even if you follow a bad movie with a good one (Hulk and The Incredible Hulk for example) the first movie will put off viewers. I kind of liked the last Punisher movie (with Tom Jane), but the first one (with Dolph Lungren) was laughable. The previews for Punisher War Zone didn’t really impress me.
