This is one that steered off the bridge and into the gutter
Every summer has one. One movie that looks awesome. That looks… groundbreaking and holds much promise. I wished it was Hellboy since I didn’t enjoy the 1st one and expected it to bomb. Unfortunately, God knows why that Will Smith decided to take the Hancock script for a ride. I wonder what really went on in his head.
The action scenes were Superman-grade. He has similar abilities with the Man of Steel, sans frost breath, heat and X-ray vision, and also enhanced sensory organs. Nothing overly impressive about the actions scenes, really. Come to think of it, they should have taken someone else to portray the gritty hobo-ness of Hancock. Will Smith pulls off some scenes nicely but I think the problem was that he didn’t talk enough to cement his character, hobo stage and hero stage.
The story looks like it’s about the get a lot more interesting when Charlize Theron shows her true colours. Unfortunately, this is the point where they fuck the whole goddamn movie up. The way this movie was going, they could’ve done anything at all and made it fantastic. ANYTHING. The ball was in their court and they kicked it at their own balls.
It hurts just thinking about typing down the storyline. The writers must’ve been drunk and desperate to have even thought about this.
Ol’ Spiky’s Rating: 2.0 outta 5 – Absoutely disappointing movie.
This has definitely been one that ran away outta pure hype. Shame on you, Will Smith. Now I laugh harder thinking about your “Pursuit of Happiness” flop.
Peace out y’all!
