Australia's premiere film website, Dark Horizons, recently received a review of the new Punisher script and here's what Dark Horizon's scooper had to say: "I got a look at the script, and I'll tell you right now, Garth Ennis fans are in for a big treat. There are big portions of the first story arc, which I think is "welcome home frank" in this script, and it's cool. I enjoyed the script very much - the russian, bumpo, joan, all there. Jonathan Hensleigh also brings in his own voice, and they are trying to make Tampa WAY more dangerous than it actually is. I don't want to give anything away, but I will say that Saint is written as a very flawed character, very human. He's not pure evil, but he does do evil things. Castle is not the comic book character we all know, but he is not all that different either. He's not a one man wrecking crew so much as, like Saint, a flawed person trying to make sense of the loss of his family, and his way to do this is to kill a lot of people. BTW, His father (Roy Scheider) wasn't in this version of the script, only mentioned when he picks up his father's 45's, and parker shotguns. The big family death scene I saw is not in this script, and I'm afraid they'll cut him out of the film, which would be a shame. They are nearly done with shooting. Only a few more weeks. I believe [John] Travolta wraps in a week, and [Thomas] Jane may already be done, actually. Not sure about that one."
