Hancock turns the standard superhero movie inside-out: The title character (Will Smith) can fly, has superstrength, and is invulnerable, but he’s also a sloppy, alcoholic jerk who causes millions of dollars in property damage whenever he bothers to fight crime. When he saves the life of a public-relations agent named Ray (Jason Bateman, Arrested Development), Ray decides to improve Hancock’s image–starting by having Hancock surrender himself to the authorities and go to prison for his lawless behavior. The idea is that once he’s in prison, the crime rate will go up, and people will start to realize Hancock might be of value after all. This is only the first act of Hancock–from there, the movie takes several clever turns that shouldn’t be revealed. Hancock isn’t a great movie (among other things, director Peter Berg overuses close-ups with a hand-held camera to a degree that may cause motion sickness), but it is an extremely entertaining one. The script, which holds together far better than most superhero movies, has a propulsive plot, good dialogue, some compassion for its characters, and even an actual idea or two. The spectacular action at least gestures towards obeying the laws of physics, which actually makes the special effects more vivid. The three leads (Smith, Bateman, and Charlize Theron as Ray’s wife, Mary) deftly balance the movie’s mixture of comedy, action, and drama. All in all, a smart subversive twist on a genre that all too often takes itself all too seriously. –Bret Fetzer

- Why Hollywood Just doesn’t Get It.
This was potentially a very funny movie. Unfortunately I had to keep a barf bag handy while watching it to protect the rug from reactions to the inane sub-plot.
The principle is that the title character is a super-hero, but a bit rough around the edges with his inter-personal skills. Then he has the good luck of saving the life of a public relations guy, who happens to be married to the only other (but incognito) superhero in the world. This victim/secondary protagonist is somehow … Read More

- Will Smith Worst film
This has to one of Will Smith’s worst films. His acting was poor, the story line inconsistent. Directing second rate at best. The only good thing about the movie was when it was over.

- Great film!
I am a big Will Smith fan, so I may be bias. I recommend this film hightly.
Rating: - Entertaining, but not fabulous
I enjoyed this movie. I’ll admit that I have a soft spot for Will Smith movies so I saw this one despite the bad reviews. Yes, there is way too much cursing. And lots of drinking. This is not a movie for your children. The story line was interesting, but not stellar. The special effects were awesome!
One reviewer has said that this was a “white hate” movie, portraying whites as weak and wimpy, and blacks as strong and cool. I am white and did not pick up on that. I don’t think that element … Read More

- BIG SURPRISE
A big surprise is the only way I can describe this movie. I never bothered to pay attention to it when it first came out. After all, Will Smith an action super hero? Men in Black, okay; I Robot, okay; I am Legend, okay too; but super hero? However, my wife’s sister rented it for us to watch during the Christmas holiday. I was amazed at the great job Smith and Theron did in this movie. This is a great super hero acton movie with an intelligent plot. Yes, you heard me, an intelligent plot. Not just … Read More
