Red (English)

Red, the comic mini-series, was a moderately interesting and mostly drab comic, that I remember for being quite boring in most parts. It was, of course, picked up for a film because an old man kicking a**e is always good times at the cinema, and the fact that it was created by Warren Ellis, one of the biggest names in comics, didn't hurt either.

Some films are so far away from their source material that reading the comic and watching the film is almost moot, and fans of the comic can't recognise the source in what they're watching at all. Luckily for us, Red is exactly that film....
