“Payback” (*1/2 out of four) was a dominatingly unpleasant melodrama about a young stockbroker (Matt Levett) at a Wall Street firm controlled by the mob who is betrayed and sent to prison for 6 years and upon his release seeks revenge and to take them down, no matter what the cost. Fairly rote and routine story of retribution is really sunk by Levett’s unlikeable character (and mannered performance) and thus has no payoff. Byetheway- this is not a remake of the 1999 Mel Gibson melodrama of the same name and similar story.
