Roadhouse Blues

Marvel Execs...It's time to make a big screen version of The Punisher. Have Jon Bernthal as Frank and give Alexa Davalos (Beth) a role as Frank's love interest. She was spot on with this character. I haven't seen such a believable and magical on screen (TV or otherwise) collaboration in a very long time and in my book it tops all the other Marvel Universe romantic pair-ups I have seen. The chemistry was simply amazing...and the funny thing is they achieved this in mere minutes of the first act...it was beautiful to watch. I was reminded of scenes in earlier Punisher comic books...were there was a calm before the storm...moments when we got to see (hear) Frank as a man filled with compassion, driven by love and truth and ready to break 'many' bones and skulls to defend those virtues. Fight scenes and car chase aside this was an award winning episode IMHO.

Well done and congrats to all the cast and crew.

I'm off now to continue my binge ;-)

Putting the inevitable cancellation aside, there has always been something so unique and refreshing about the tone of this show. The way it can go from 0-60 in an instant and not seem repetitive is remarkable. Trouble always seems to follow Frank and he always relishes it.

Well it starts again. Castles life always revolves around violence, and how episode 1 puts him in the fight is both shocking and riveting. Bernthal portrays another side to Frank that maybe he's starting to get his life together. But a soldier always finds war in the end. Amazing fight scenes and some touching moments. Bingeworthy as always. Think its gonna get messy as we go along. What a start.

And finally Frank is back.

I am a big fan of this series, I admit it. I've been waiting for this to come since I ended watching season one.

First thing first, I am just starting with the season as I watched episodes one and two only. I'm gonna put it into one word: Brutal.

We start with a scene where Frank is driving his van with a mysterious girl (watched the trailer? No, I didn't) and it seems they are being chased by two cars. And then, you can imagine what happens when one of them block the highway ahead. And that my friends, is music to our ears.

Time has passed, and Frank is there. Traveling, listening to blues and trying (or not) to forget his past. And of course, helping people who are in need... You know what that means, right? And then, this mysterious girl appears, and seems she's in serious trouble with serious people.

Nothing more to say, fellas. You know what to expect when you see Frank in action. Be careful, people... because Frank doesn't care whether you're a guy or a girl when you mess with him. You'll see.

We missed you, Frank. Welcome back.

Got into the character development and slightly soppy story before being suddenly thrown into a brutal and bloody fight scene and reminded what show I was watching. Fire. 🔥🔥🔥
