Dark Hero
A down and dirty Mel Gibson is fantastic in this film. From his gravely voice, and the lack of a single smile throughout the film, he plays the part perfectly. Porter is a man betrayed by his wife, his friend, and left for dead. The entire movie involves him trying to get the money that was stolen from him back. That proves to be not as simple as it seems, and soon corrupt cops, the mob, and Japanese gangsters are all out for him. This one is worth the money.

good movie but...
the quality of this dvd sucks...it's not even close to "average"...the vhs is probably the same quality as the dvd (i'm using my computer to play dvds...i imagine a dvd player hooked up to a tv would be the same quality). This is a great action thriller but the dvd needs to improve its picture quality.

Cool, calm, collected.
Mel Gibson goes back to his Lethal Weapon roots for this one--without the badge.

So he's the bad guy, but we'd root for Mel in any role, and this is no different. He's emotional without being sappy, cool without being fake. This is a movie to watch for the performance.

The plot seems like it ought to ruin the movie, but it's simple enough to be fun and acceptable. Some great supporting work from Lucy Liu and Kris Kristopherson as well.

This is a film that will hold an important place in my collection--I'll go to Payback when I want to watch a "movie". It provides laughs, action and great performances. An all-around good flick.
