What's The Story

What happens when a wisecracking, homeless, alcoholic superhero meets a determined PR exec? Hancock, who just saved the life of idealistic Ray Embrey, is about to find out. Embrey is determined to rehabilitate the down-and-out Hancock, clean up his image, and make him into a true hero the world can adore. Embrey's wife Mary, on the other hand, isn't so sure it's a worthy endeavor, particularly when Hancock starts hitting on her in the midst of his big comeback. The "Big Blue Boy Scout" he ain't.

Three Good Reasons

  • 1Will Smith and Jason Bateman are both masters of dry comic timing. This is the first time we've had the chance to see them play off of each other, and the results should be classic.
  • 2The market's a bit flooded right now with weighty epics of tortured-yet-beloved superheroes... so it's a bit refreshing to get a look at great power without great responsibility.
  • 3It's the Fourth of July weekend. That means three things: cookouts, fireworks, and Will Smith blockbusters.

Bet You Didn't Know

That poor stranded gray whale that Hancock tosses back into the ocean in the trailer? The one that lands on a sailboat? That whale would weigh about the same as two city buses (with passengers). More about Hancock on Yahoo! Movies
