Here and there, I heard early reviews about the film, still went to the film without any expectations...Simply put, the film is quite good. Will Smith (dude can really carry a film), Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman give worthy performances (Charlize was hot as usual), direction by Peter Berg was good, and story wise it was ok (cool surprises in the plot), but could've been improved on some areas. Some of the dialogue/jokes were good and witty. Overall, had a good, popcorn blast-o-fun with this "action-comedy-fantasy-drama" movie.
It's much better than other films I've seen this summer -- better than Indy 4, Hulk, Caspian, and Speed Racer, as good as Wanted (give or take given both films are different genres), though Iron Man is still the standard bearer of the summer.
Don't know if this going out on a limb, but would put Hancock in the lower 5 of the top 5 movies of this summer. Iron Man, Dark Knight, Wall-E are top 3 (you can carve that in stone). |
