A former Special Forces member who has managed to survive dangerous missions, he's finally moving into a safe desk job, to the delight of his wife and son. But when his family is executed, after witnessing a mafia hit, Castle dons a black battle suit, arms himself with a ton of guns, and seeks swift revenge on the crime syndicate responsible.  Critic Reviews Grade : C Chicago Sun-Times : The Punisher is a long, dark slog through grim revenge. Unlike most movies based on comic book heroes, it doesn't contain the glimmer of a smile, and its hero is a depressed alcoholic -- well he might be, since his entire family, including wife, child, father and even distant cousins -- has been massacred before his eyes.    more Grade : B USA Today : Thomas Jane is Frank Castle, direct from Marvel Comics. And in keeping with the character, pumped-up Jane now looks more like a ballplayer on steroids. Diverging from the comic, the movie Castle is an FBI man avenging the slaying of his mom, dad, wife and son, a slaughter notably brutal for a film whose primary plus is a sense of humor.   more Grade : C- Seattle Post-Intelligencer : Hollywood's latest superhero movie, an adaptation of Marvel Comics'    more   For rating reasons : filmrating.com, mpaa.com                                    For Parents : Parentalguide.com
