Max Payne Shoots Its Way Atop All Three DVD Charts

Max PayneA lone cop on a mission of vengence shot down all the competition in home video this week. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Max Payne debuted atop the national DVD sales, rental and Blu-ray sales charts, for the week ending January 25.

The only competition Max Payne faced was from horror's Jigsaw and his latest film, Saw V, which took second place in both DVD sales and rentals in its first week on the shelves. The disc didn't do as well on the Blu-ray charts, though, taking fourth place on the 1080p charts. Last week's top-selling disc, Tyler Perry's The Family That Preys, slipped all the way to sixth place in its second week.

While Max Payne took home the crown for Blu-ray sales, it seems that Batman just won't go away as well. The Dark Knight turned in another amazing showing, taking second place in Blu-ray sales and fourth place in standard DVD sales, almost two months after it first hit the shelves. 30% of The Dark Knight's sales last week were in the Blu-ray format.

    "Max Payne" was not bad..I saw it intheaters..I was not familier with the video game..but to me the film studios marketed "Max Payne" wrong..it was more of a hardboiled detective story with supernatural elements.

    It was an ok film. Nothig really happned or made me jump out of my seat! More forgettable than anything else!

    My Final Rating: C-

    The movie was weak and had a weak ending. The ending in the game was better.

    I had to leave the theater I was so bored, this film was terrible, it was a bunch of action scenes stiched together so poorly, nothing flowed well and the acting was well terrible. sh*t storyline and totally pointless. I wanted my money back ,but I didnt pay to get in so I just want my hour of life back.
    One of the top films on Crapfest 08.

    I didn't think this movie was doing all that well, of course I should expect that, living here on MW like I do. I'll need to check this one out sometime, I guess. But "Repo! The Genetic Opera!" is still at the top of my list. LOLZ!

    Film sucked hard, there was no need for that much CGI.

    Just my opinion though as a fan of the game
