The Punisher: One Last Kill and the mocked CGI shots

The latest Marvel Special Presentation, The Punisher: One Last Kill , is back in the spotlight after online comments targeted a specific scene that was thought to be CGI, but was in fact filmed for real. The film follows Frank Castle as he once again faces a world of violence and crime, taking down countless criminals without mercy.

The scene that was mocked

One stunt in the film shows Frank Castle jumping backward off a rooftop while firing at an opponent. The sequence initially looks smooth, until it cuts to a shot of Castle landing on an air conditioner. That particular shot drew heavy criticism from viewers, who compared it to video game animations. This led to comments that it looked like a cutscene from GTA , a comparison made by several users on social media.

Audience reactions

Social media users made their dissatisfaction with the visual effects in this shot clear. Many viewers felt the scene looked unfinished, especially because it gives off the impression of robotic movement from the stunt performer’s model. Jon Bernthal, who plays Frank Castle, is visible in the scene, but his face lacks emotion, adding to the overall strange feel of the shot.

Critics’ reactions

Despite the criticism, fans have embraced the special’s brutality. The film The Punisher: One Last Kill received a 7/10 from critics. It has been described as a compact and entertaining short film that puts a fresh spin on the Netflix series formula.

With Frank Castle back in the spotlight, the question remains whether fans will ever get a new full series that dives deeper into his story and character. There is clearly strong interest in the future of this popular antihero.
