Have you seen the director's cut? Not yet, but I know a lot of people prefer it to the theatrical cut.

Both based on the same novel - The Hunter, by Donald E. Westlake. That poster for Point Blank is seriously badass.
I've only seen the theatrical version of Payback which enjoyed.
I've been meaning to watch Point Blank but from what I've heard it starts out great, but soon loses its way in the second act. I always assumed that it was a gritty, straight-forward revenge thriller, but it seems to be more drawn-out and experimental like the Soderbergh movie The Limey which I didn't like much.

I've only seen the theatrical cut of Payback, i've never watched Point Blank. I recently watched Hell in the Pacific, another Boorman/Marvin film, and the bluray commentary references that film a few times. I need to check it out.

I don't like The Limey much either, but Point Blank a good movie imo.

Payback.
Gibson gives such a slick, badass performance. I also like that the movie has some dark humor.
The tagline is awesome: " Get Ready To Root For The Bad Guy"
