One of my favorite movies, a movie that always brings a smile to my face, is not what you think. It's not Deadpool , though I really liked those movies. It's not Avengers: Infinity War , although that movie is a towering feat of cinema. It isn't even Captain America: Winter Soldier , which is probably Marvel's best MOVIE, period. No, one of my absolute favorite Marvel films is Lexi Alexander's 2008 romp, Punisher: War Zone . It is balls-to-the-wall insanity. It is a cartoonish parody of American hyper violence. It is stylish, gorgeous to look at, and every actor is firmly onboard. It isn't a "good" movie, per se: but it is a helluva fun time. What does that movie have to do with this year's (surprise) hit, Venom ? Well, I really like bad movies. I like movies that are audaciously terrible. I have fun watching them. As soon as the reviews for Venom started to roll in, I had high hopes that Venom would rise to Punisher: War Zone...
