man on fire is like a black punisher, haha...

for those of you who don't know, man of fire stars denzel washington, who is a security guard who fails to guard a small girl and she ends up being kidnapped... he then launches a vigilante effort to bring her back...

punisher is of course based upon the marvel vigilante(funny how this is the only marvel hero who fights using his brain and human abilities, not some supernatural power, thus, giving him a coolness factor), a former fbi and top-notch marine, whose family becomes targeted and killed due to a past failed mission... he launches an effort to bring down the man who started it all... marvel movie rated R, which seems funny in itself...

to be honest, although both are probably hyped up movies, i would like to see them... (maybe i'll wait for a rental dvd) funny considering the last movie i just saw was one teaching compassion against opposition, not fire against fire... man on fire looks slightly better because of denzel washington's presence(i'll take you down piece by piece! you gotta love that quote), but punisher has john travolta play the evil guy, so that could be a plus in itself(this is not vengence... no... it's punishment).
