What Punisher? From the Marval Comics? Because thats the only one I've heard of. That was also a gang where I used to live, but not the point.
Ok these are the reviews I found. Hopfully this will help lol
Though I read them and I still can't deside lol =D
Armitage III: Poly-Matrix
The film is set on Mars, where colonists have set up a huge city where "Seconds", robots that perform menial tasks, are everywhere, and no one is too happy about it. Enter the "Thirds." One generation up, these robots have the ability to think and feel, and they are easily mistaken as human (not unlike the replicants from Ridley Scott's work). Naomi Armitage, a cop who dresses in hot pants, is tracking down a killer who is systematically killing all the Thirds on Mars. She's hotheaded and immature, but her instincts save her in a variety of situations. Her new partner, Ross Sylibus, is distrustful of all robots since one killed his last partner; at the same time, he's dealing with the fact that he's nearly a robot himself after all the replacement parts he has from injuries sustained in the line of duty. As the two grow closer, they uncover several mysteries about the Thirds, including a couple that will shake Armitage to the foundation of her being.
The question of what makes people human, including androids, is a centerpiece of this and many other cyberpunk titles. POLY-MATRIX adds some interesting concepts to the mix, in that the "Thirds" have some special abilities that you wouldn't expect from robots (that I won't mention for spoilers' sake). I was never taken in by GHOST IN THE SHELL, even though it covered similar territory, possibly because it was not only bleak but also boring. Although POLY-MATRIX does slow down enough to breathe at times, there's enough action to keep the pace going. The philosophical side of POLY-MATRIX is worthy of note, not because it's new but that it adds some unique thoughts. (Although it blatantly copys BLADE RUNNER's plot at times, that film is so visual and so languidly paced that it's hard to compare them otherwise.)
Unfortunately, the animation itself is not so worthy. At times, it is beautiful. At other times, it's almost ugly. This comes from its origins in a four episode OVA series; the budget just wasn't always there. If you're not nitpicky about such things, you'll be absorbed, but the difference between the great sequences and the "off" work is casually noticeable. However, the action sequences tend to be great despite the problems elsewhere.
The OVA origins also cause some problems for understanding POLY-MATRIX completely, especially on first viewing. I've seen the film twice now, and the second time plays better because some concepts aren't well explained the first time around. I'm not sure if that's because the details were lost in editing over 2 hours of material down to a 1 1/2-hour film. I'd hope so, because at times I felt like I was just missing something the first time around--for example, the whole business of the Earth and Mars signing a treaty seems to come out of left field. You'll also notice minor continuity errors, particularly in clothing, due to this.
The dub of POLY-MATRIX employs Elizabeth Berkley and Keifer Sutherland. I assume this was done in an attempt to get the film marketed into larger circles than it would have been otherwise. However, neither of them emote in their live-action roles, so why they would here is beyond me. Neither is bad, but neither is exemplary. The rest of the cast is similarly uninteresting, though fans of ROBOTECH will get a kick out of several of its cast members having roles here too. There is no Japanese language track, which bothered me greatly the first time I saw it, since those tracks are usually far superior. However, the more I've read about the editing done on the film, it's very possible that the dialogue and music was changed in a variety of ways from the Japanese OVAs, making a Japanese language track impossible.
When I originally reviewed the film, I gave it a hard time for some particularly bad sound editing. Perhaps it was the copy of the disc I was watching or some other problem. That's not the case now--the version recently re-released is THX certified, and it's awesome. The sound is great and the 5.1 mix is quite good, with lots of surround editing that's much appreciated.
Though it has some problems both with animation and some minor plotting issues, ARMITAGE III: POLY-MATRIX still plays. Although I'm planning to pick up the OVAs when they are made available in the next few months, it's not a bad title as it currently exists.
Iria: Zeriam the Animation
At the start of the six episodes that comprise the show, Iria is an apprentice bounty hunter that works with her "big brother" Gren on various jobs. They are assigned to rescue the crew and passengers of a spaceship that's been the victim of a horrible accident, apparently. However, it's clear that the company who gave them the assignment has mixed feelings about it, since they try to stop Iria and Gren from even getting there. When they arrive, it turns out that a mysterious creature known as Zeiram has taken out the vast majority of the humans on board, and Iria is forced to leave Gren behind when he blows up the remains of the ship to try and destory Zeiram. That doesn't work, however, and over the course of 2 3/4 hours, we see Iria take on the apparently indestructable creature who may have caused Gren's death. But that's not all...the company who sent them on the assignment really wants Zeiram back, since they created him.
Some of this, you've seen before. However, the animation is very crisp and the animators do their best to keep the viewer involved in the story. Some of the stunts that Iria pulls are pretty spectacular, but I enjoyed it overall. It does have a few problems in that kids get involved in the second episode and thereafter. It's supposed to show an emotional bond, but the kids here are just annoying. The violence is realistic, meaning that it can be graphic, but not overly so. There's also some very brief nudity, but it is very low-key and unusual for anime. With 6 episodes on DVD for about $25, it's a good deal. Anyone who likes the above-mentioned sci-fi movies will find it interesting, as long as their expectations aren't too high.

The Cross Punisher from Trigun. It's the weapon Nicholas Wolfwood uses. It has four different compartments. The long part has the machine gun. The short end has the rocket launcher. The right end has eight pistols. I don't know what the other end contains. Probably ammo for the rocket launcher, machine gun, and the pistols.

I think the other end is pistols too.

Two different things, buddy. I never really liked the Punisher because all he is is a really pissed off human. Nothing really special, I think.

The comic, or the movie? The original movie was ok, I wanna see the new one.
Something somewhat related to anime, now. Why is Helsing ALWAYS IN VAMPIRE MOVIES!? Dracula 2000: Guys name is Van Helsing. I don't even have to mention the movie Van Helsing. Why don't they get original?

John Travolta is supposed to be in a new Punisher movie. It's being filmed in Tampa, across the street from my older brother's apartment. John Travolta's my brother's neighbor.
The movie looks pretty cool. But the music in the background doesn't represent Punisher well.
