The Punisher passes that point and keeps going and its thin plot and characterisation cannot support it beyond that.
November 16, 2017
It's a slow, monotonous story without a clear antagonist, and Frank is a grim, one-note character who works better as a supporting player than a lead.
November 13, 2017
As a narrative about veterans trying to find their place in the world, The Punisher has something to say. But it could have been so much shorter, and its placement in the Marvel universe feels tangential at best.

At 13 hours, you'll feel as if you're the one being punished for something.
November 13, 2017
Like all good noir stories, The Punisher can be very dense at times, but in a surprising twist for a Marvel show it does all come together in a way that makes sense.
November 16, 2017
As usual, the production is immaculate, and Bernthal -- who never disappoints -- is his usual self. You may, however, wish (I did) that his Punisher wasn't such a humorless, unmitigated jerk.

The Punisher does in fact stand on its own. And heck, comparing it to some of the other Marvel properties, it's good (sorry, Iron Fist). At a small-picture scale, there's solid acting (not mind-bending, but solid), and good production value.
November 16, 2017
The Punisher doesn't have much time for substance. It's simultaneously too much and not enough.
November 13, 2017
it's impossible to overstate how leaden and badly structured The Punisher is.
November 16, 2017
The Punisher doesn't always hit the perfect note but you have to give it chops for trying to do something a little different, and eschewing genre conventions. It's just too bloody long.
