Annoying in Punisher...


His performance was a little to over the top, and way overacted. It was like he attempted to do an impression of an older Al Pacino with a hint of Daniel Day-Lewis. Other than that, he was good.

Ironically i was coming here to post about it too!

it was OK at the beginning but you're right he went WAY over the top after he became 'jigsaw'. I know it's a comic book so larger than life stuff is certainly allowed, but it was ott.

Not one for Dominic's showreel!

I thought he was perfect. It was supposed to be an over the top performance, if you didn't notice... that whole movie is over the top. The exaggerated accent is very carefully calculated, it's supposed to have a silly comical quality.

Well... That's just like my opinion, man.

I thought he was great in Punisher: War Zone. Dominic West can do no wrong in my opinion. I cant wait for his new movie Centurian. It looks badass!!

I really liked him in the beginning of the movie. Billy Russoti was a real badass villain, I actually kinda feared him a little after only seeing five minutes of him. That got my hopes up and made me think this could actually be a really good movie. But then he became Jigsaw, and became so over the top, comic booky, and lame I didn't fear or respect him anymore. He had such great potential, then they ruined it with the whole Jigsaw thing.
