Let us do a review without being judgmental. I won’t say if the movie is good or bad. That is your decision to make.
I will just tell you some high points of the movie
• Great visual bombardment. Willie flying around looks amazingly real. I got an amazing feeling of flying fast yet low over the highway.
• Unlike in superman movies, where you know the guy is strong, here it’s amazing how you can feel Willie’s strength.
• You can predict scenes here no surprises… you know the head will go into the ass……… you know Hancock will now say “Good Job” to the cops……. You know Hancock will now take a catch of a girl falling from the sky……
• Here is a Super hero who blows his nose into the camera lens. Flies around drunk in half pants with a bottle of whiskey. Sleeps drunk on pavement bench.
• Good work by Will Smith and the Special FX team. Makes up for the inadequacies of the script writers.
• Very unique characterization of a man who is doing good, seeks public approval in his heart but is very defiant and defensive towards criticism and is totally clueless about how to handle the situation. Has a huge ego, is stronger than others has super powers but acts with the thinking process of a teenager.
• Charlize Thereon Has aged but is amazing. she looks so beautiful as a lady and as a superwoman. She has changed sooooo much… You will not recognize her and I guarantee that.
• It’s a light funny movie with no high powered villain with world destroying sinister plans.
Go expecting to have a good time and you will…. This is one of those movies that some enjoy, some criticize yet everybody sees… A movie that will become a part of Hollywood vocabulary whether you like it or not
