| CHUDDevin FaraciIt's not often that I get to trot out this little critical bon mot, but here goes: Punisher: War Zone kicks ass. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekJunk, pure and simple...Stevenson [is] a beefy, taciturn fellow with all the charisma of Steven Seagal and an emotional range that goes from A to somewhere just shy of A-. |
| Mania.comRob VauxThere's too much good stuff here to let the bad stuff off the hook. |
| Kansas City StarJason HeckPunisher: War Zone is the best Punisher movie of the three made so far. That said, it's still terrible. |
| CinematicalEric D. SniderThe film actually wants us to ponder its moral and ethical implications -- which is like a stripper telling you she wants to go to law school. Yeah, sure, whatever you say, movie. I'm not paying you to talk. |
| Bangor Daily News (Maine)Christopher SmithAbout as entertaining as being slapped by a stranger. |
| Zaki's CornerZaki HasanPunisher: War Zone proudly wears its ambitions on its sleeve, and delivers exactly what its title promises. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...stands as the best offering out of Hollywood that Punisher fans could've hoped for. |
| Observer (UK)Philip FrenchThe IQ is as low as the body count is high and the uncharismatic Ray Stevenson might as well have been wearing a mask for all the emotion he shows. |
