Product Description:
Sony Pictures Hancock (Blu-ray)

Amazon.com:
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

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Deadhouseplants’ Review: Hancock (Blu-Ray)
When making a superhero movie, having a villain of equal power and stature is vital.

Plot:

For the most part, the first fifty minutes of Hancock is actually pretty good. The major problem in superhero movies is gaining insight into a hero and relating to them. This is where Superman Begins had trouble, where the first installment of X-Men was a little better, and Batman Begins was marginally pretty good. In Hancock, you have a sense of comfort in your hero, and feel no sense of … Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not A Bad Attempt At Another Angle On A Superhero Film!
Hancock is a different take on a superhero. He isn’t beloved like Superman or Spider-Man in their films nor is he respected like Batman in his. Rather, he’s an obnoxious jerk who just happens to have super abilities who only fights crime when he feels like it or when someone really annoys him!

To be honest, I like this take because not many of us would be a goody two shoes. Hancock is decidedly more human despite his super human powers. In the end, he learns a lesson in humility and finds … Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Will Smith
Funny, catching, and just when you expect it to get boring it lights up again. Strange story, but just what you need when every other movie seems to have the same storyline. Not your common marvel hero.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - MADE BY AND FOR 14-YEAR-OLD BOYS
If you’re fourteen or have a fourteen year old boy’s attention span and depth of understanding you’ll love this film. If you’re looking for more than CGI effects then you may want to look elsewhere.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fun Story!
In my opinion this movie is just simply fun to watch!

The acting was great, and the story was very decent. The story-line did almost completely change more than halfway through, but I thought it gave the superhero, Hancock, more back story, as does every superhero!

It leaves open a potential second film, and I’ve already heard there probably will be one, so there’s room to answer any left open questions anyone had for this film.

Hancock is a lot of fun! Check it … Read More
