    Storyline

    • Trivia
      James McCaffrey, the voice of Max Payne in the video game, makes a cameo as the FBI Agent that Lieutenant Jim Bravura introduces to the "real" police officer. He also shows up near the end of the film, asking if Bravura is alright, before calling in Division One over the radio.
    • Goofs
      When Max is about to leave his apartment in the morning, he shuts off the stove after a kettle starts whistling. The steaming item on the stove is an espresso pot, which does not whistle. A kettle is on the back burner, but it's not being used.
    • Quotes

      [first lines]

      Max Payne: I don't believe in heaven. I believe in pain. I believe in fear. I believe in death.

    • Crazy credits
      After the credits is an extra scene, in which Max is reunited with Mona at a bar to be shown further developments involving Aesir, implying both have more to do (setting the scene for a possible sequel).
    • Alternate versions
      An unrated version was released on Region 1 DVD and Region A Blu-Ray.
    • Connections
      Edited into Max Payne: Movie Special (2008)

    The Usual Bad Acting From Mark Wahlberg
    But overall the film was not bad and it was a good way to kill 2 hours.

    I was not even aware it is based on a game, but for what it is there are a few violent scenes, some action, a good looking girl is usually present on the screen and the special effects are decent.
