I’m not a huge fan of his take on the Punisher. I loved the Punisher Max comic series and Garth Ennis’ take on the character. I think the TV version is too angry and emotional. And he talks too much.

Of course he’s angry and emotional, because he’s, what species are we again…? Oh yeah, human! And without that or dialogue, he’s a walking one-note killer and that would’ve been boring after a while. If it was a short film, that’s fine and dandy, but a whole series? That’s where proper storytelling and emotional depth take the wheel

Average Marvel fan mad at actor for… checks notes… talking and showing emotion?

I don’t know what an average Marvel fan is. The Punisher Max series had lots of emotion. It dealt with issues around Frank’s army experience and stuff like that. And I’m not against showing emotions in superhero shows. I loved the dynamic between Nick Fury and his wife in Secret Invasion and loved the Thunderbolts movie with all the stuff around mental health. I just think Jon Bernthal totally overacts. And it’s more his emotional response. Frank Castle is methodical in his actions, and plans ahead in a way this Punisher never does. It’s always all guns blazing. And the whole “ he’s down, he’s out, no he’s somehow back on his feet stuff”feels more like WWE. The Mandalorian has more emotional resonance. And you can’t see his face for 99.999%. Proper storytelling leaves spaces. The Punisher doesn’t. And honestly, I just made a point. IMHO means opinion. I have one, so do you. But I don’t assume things about people on that basis. Unless they’re a trump supporter…..

It's the only Netflix show I didn't finish. Every time I put it on, I fell asleep. There's too many characters and it moves too slowly.

It’d get old and boring real quick if it was just Frank killing off many random people without breaking a beat for 13 episodes if there were no other characters or a proper narrative to balance off the brutal violence

Was my favorite marvel series but I really like that kind of show. To me it felt like its own thing style wise more than a lot of other marvel stuff which I really like.
I wish marvel would have some more series that are actually built like a tv series and not a multi part CGI fest movie.
