The Cast
- Mark Wahlberg as Max Payne.
- Beau Bridges (General Landry from Stargate!!! Yay!) as B.B. Hensley, a former cop and Max Payne’s mentor.
- Mila Kunis as Mona Sax, an assassin who seeks revenge for the murder of her sister.
- Ludacris as Jim Bravura, an internal affairs agent.
- Chris O’Donnell as Jason Colvin, an executive[10] and Nicole Horne’s “right-hand man”.
- Nelly Furtado as Christa Balder, wife of Alex Balder.
- Kate Burton as Nicole Horne, CEO of Aesir corporation.
- Donal Logue as Alex Balder, Max Payne’s partner and best friend.
- Amaury Nolasco as Jack Lupino, a mafia boss who becomes insane due to the drug Valkyr.
The movie has some noir which is awesome, and the Valkyr (it’s blue in the movie, not green unlike pictured in the game) induced scenes are epic! It seems that the movie is sticking to the game - Horne injects Valkyr into Max, turning him into a V-head; hence the hallucinations.
I don’t think Mila Kunis looks like Mona. The latter was modeled after Katherine Anne Tong. She’d have made a better Mona in the movie.
Anyway, I’ll be watching the movie because I liked the game. Also, Beau Bridges is playing B.B. W007!
Did you enjoy playing Max Payne 1 and 2? Are you looking forward to watching the movie?
