Max Payne

I watched the Max Payne movie starring Mark Walberg last night. It was the unoriginal story of a cop seeking revenge based on some video game.

The only thing I enjoyed was the great special effects each time the dark winged creatures appeared. I loved seeing their black wings and the setting become consumed in fire. It created a thrilling and spooky atmosphere and was the only good thing about the movie.

I wished they would've gone more into the angel lore. It was more interesting and visually satisfying then the route they took with the movie.

The movie borrows from the Norse mythology a creature called valkyrie. The valkyries bring their chosen who have died bravely in battle to the afterlife hall of the slain.

See . . . much more interesting.
