When the Hulk gets angry, his movie gets good, so you wish he'd get angry more often. Accepting this challenge after the triumphant Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, director Ang Lee has created an ambitious film, based on the Marvel comic created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, that succeeds as a cautionary tale about mad science and traumatized children coping with legacies of pain. That's the Hulk's problem: After accidental exposure to gamma radiation, scientist Bruce Banner (Eric Bana) turns into the huge, green, and indestructible Hulk when provoked, and repressed childhood memories fuel his fury. Hobbled by the obligatory "origin story" (to acquaint neophytes with the character's Jekyll-and-Hyde-ish fate), there's room for little else in a sluggish film that struggles to reconcile Lee's stylistic flair (evident in his visual interpretation of comic-book technique) with the razzle-dazzle of a megabudget franchise. What's good is good (Jennifer Connelly essentially echoes her role from A Beautiful Mind, and Nick Nolte is righteously tormented as Banner's father), but the movie's schizoid intentions remain largely unclear. --Jeff Shannon

So-so..... March 15, 2009

The only thing good about this movie were the fight scenes. Everything else was so-so. "The Incredible Hulk" was so much better!

SO UNDERRATED! January 6, 2009
Edwin O. Eschberger
Hulk is a great film. Its masterfully directed and the effects are mind blowing. Hulk is so much more than a mindless monster and this film shows us that. I consider this one of the best superhero movies ever made right along with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight.

Come on people it's a huge green dude...What were you expecting? Spidey? Didn't think so. Hulk is that character in comics that was never truly identified to be either a hero or a villain. He is both in my opinion. He is his own enemy, Banner has to fight with his inner self (literally) the struggles between Hulk and Bruce Banner are as plausible as that of Kent and Superman, or Wayne and Batman. The only problem is how the story is adapted.
In this first adaptation, which in fact isn't that loyal to the comic book origins; begins the story of tormented scientist Bruce Banner and his search for a new means to heal and cure people in a way never imagined. His attempts fail after he is exposed to gamma rays. This of course unleashes what is already inside of Banner. Now there are many details in the movie that I'm not gona ruin, for that you would have to see the movie. The issue with why people dislike the movie is because it takes almost 45 min of the movie to finally see Hulk.
The movie dwells to long in the past of Banner, now I agree origin is good but in a balanced manner. The effects are amazing with out a doubt...But the storyline a times drags to long. Not to mention the final fight scene this is too dark and poorly conceived. Conclusion, rent it before you buy it. Only buy it if you are a fan of Hulk or comics.
MY PERSONAL RATING: 3 OUT OF 5
