Strong beginning at strong series. And finally frank aint't too busy to get laid. Only because of that he will fight even better. Im thrilled!
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. 🔥🔥🔥
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 ;-)

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.
This episode combines drama and action really well. The episode is able to show a new life for Frank Castle after season 1. As predictable as the episode is, Jon Berenthal makes it compelling as he puts his own take on it and shows a side of Frank that we haven't seen in a while. Throughout the episode, you as the viewer want Frank to settle down and start a new family. However with Frank being the Punisher, it doesn't last long as the climax was bloody and action packed. The action was very exciting and you can almost feel the punches that are being thrown. By the end, I was excited to see what this season could bring for us even if the show does get cancelled.
