    TheMongoStomp: strangelhold was such an underrated game in my opinion, for any max payne lover i thought. Something about bulletime that never gets old more »
    romanmaroni: My biggest problem with Strangehold is that they only had English-language tracks. I would have much preferred hearing Chow Yun-Fat act in his native... more »
    FlagshipFighter: I loved stranglehold, but i feel as if I'm in the minority :-( more »
    0xC001D00D: sadly Stranglehold was a shit, totally copied from Max Payne but without any charm. I played it after Max Payne 2 and boy if it failed my expectations... more »
    TSFMfest: If he makes it, I will buy it. Sadly, it doesn't sound like it's going to happen any time soon, if ever. more »
    CHW: Stranglehold was one of the most fun, OTT, balls-to-the-wall action games I've played this generation. Sort of like a messier, much less challenging ... more »
    EderC: What if Quentin Tarantino made a video game? "What does Ganondorf look like!?" more »
    Shinta: Well we know Chow Yun-Fat is down! If that guy will agree to be in Dragonball: Evolution, I'm pretty sure he'd agree to wear a clownsuit and sell car... more »

    striferoks: I don't really know how to feel about Woo. I'm not a huge fan of his style in action flicks, but it seems like it would translate well into a game. Wa... more »
    Witzbold: As long as he makes the next one actually have more object interaction rather that just the first stage Ill buy it again. Since did have fun with Stra... more »
    TRT-X: So basically we won't see a movie for this until the game is no longer relevant. more »
    PositivelyGreg: So... no Woo, no Chow... Let me guess...It will also not actually include the "Strangle" part of the title, and will not be a movie so much as a flip ... more »
    Frequen-Z: Pah, to me Hard Boiled will always mean the Miller/Darrow graphic novel, not the film. more »
    Antiterra: The pitch for the movie probably went something like this: "So, it's exactly like the game, but with a different story, actor and director. And we're ... more »
    MasonL87: Why bother to do this if the game was pretty much an action movie? If you don't have John Woo and Chow Yun-Fat, then it's not Stranglehold. This is th... more »
    TSFMfest: I don't see why we need a movie (not that it wouldn't be stupidly entertaining); the whole point of the game was to be an action movie that you could ... more »
    acispades: I see the opportunity for "Tequila Time" to be a huge distraction in the movie. Why does Hollywood make these crap movies but then pass on gold mines ... more »
