CGiii Comment
The premise is rubbish.
The script even worse.
Throw in a couple of gay characters and an overpaid Scientologist and you have a really bad film.
Appealing only to kids with over-inflated egos and under-developed muscles.

Special agent Frank Castle had it all: A loving family, a great life, and an adventurous job. But when his life is taken away from him by a ruthless criminal and his associates, Frank has become reborn. Now serving as judge, jury, and executioner, he's a new kind of vigilante out to wage a one man war against those who have done him wrong.
