It's (bullet) time for Harry and Rory to take on Max Payne in an explosive episode of the podcast! First, they revisit the original video game and discuss whether it's mix of gritty hard-boiled noir and slo-mo gun-blazing action holds up 20 years later. Then, in the feature film, Mark Wahlberg stars as the titular cop who can't be stopped, shaking down crooks and shooting up thugs to find the killer of his wife and child. On his quest for revenge he uncovers a corporate cover-up, Norse narcotics, and apocalyptic hallucinations. But is there any pleasure to be derived from Max Payne?
This podcast contains SPOILERS for Max Payne (2008), from 37:04.
