Avoid
Watch a "Let's Play" of the games instead, or something.
The original Max Payne 1-3 are great games, not only ground-breaking in technical perspective at their time, but also with a gripping story, and a good amount of fourth wall reflections.
Movies based on video games rarely work out; but some deserve recognition.
This however is a complete failure. It gives the strong impression they didn't know the source material beyond a one-page summary. So, I end my review by closing the loop to its title: Don't waste your time on this flick. Avoid it.
