2.5/4  Hancock
Hancock is a fun ride, filled with a few good laughs but basically a borrowed story(superman) and plenty of borrowed action scenes. I like peter berg's movies, I like that he knows how to tell a story and delivers good visuals in his films... (read full)

1/4  better luck next time Will Smith
By far the worst movie my husband and friends made me go see with them in the summer of 2008. I thought this movie was dumb and far fetching. I love Will Smith, but I have to question what he was thinking when he signed up to do this movie... (read full)

0.5/4  Skip It
The movie started off very good. Then it got sloppy. This might sound like a good idea on paper, but on screen it was dreadful. Wheres the story? Wheres the connection? Wheres the heart? Out of all the movies that I seen in 2008, this is o... (read full)

2.5/4  Will Smith is the man
Like everyone else I really enjoyed the first half of the movie. It got really stupid once you find out the connection between Smith and Theron. However, Will Smith just can't go wrong in any movie. He draws you into the screen no matter h... (read full)

1.5/4  Remarkably unlikable
A profane, sloppily-written, often annoying superhero movie that takes the good it has going for it (a drunken, washed up immortal who is frowned upon for all the damage he does while saving people) and wrings it through the Hollywood grin... (read full)

3/4  What, you want a cookie?
I Have always enjoyed films starring Will Smith (My Favourites including - I am Legend, I Robot and Enemy of the State) Hancock really has a bit of everything - Action, Adventure and Comedy. Good Acting by Will Smith and Charlize Theron. T... (read full)

2.5/4  Hancock Quick Review
The first half of the movie was good. The second half was a little silly.

1/5 Horrible.
  by Kody (New York,NY)
This movie was horrible. I'm usually a Will Smith fan but after this movie I wanted to hate him, but I couldn't. I just couldn't get into this movie as much as I tried. I even slept good the night before, hoping to stay awake to watch this movie but I couldn't stay awake. Whatever, I tried. It's just a really boring movie.


4/5 Zero-to-Hero
  by James D. Crabtree (Guantanamo Bay, Cuba)
Will Smith does a great job in this film, which deals with a man with super powers but no social skills. A chance meeting with a PR guy begins to change things around for him, face his flaws and eventually take his place as a true hero. There are some other great twists to this story but overall it's enough to know that it's a good film and certainly one worth giving a try.

3/5 Tries to be different
  by Bradley F. Smith (Miami Beach, FL)
In this world, superheroes are taken somewhat for granted, like it's normal to have guys flying and bullets bouncing off them etc etc. Problem is, why do the bad guys even bother trying, since it should be obvious that Hancock can defeat them? That's one logic flaw here. Also, it appears that LA is the only recipient of the superhero's largess. Too bad for other cities, I guess. Will Smith plays the drunk superhero pretty well, but then the plot morphs into a duel/love story with another female superhero, and all logic flies out the window. At least it's a twist on the usual cartoon-esque tone of these things.

5/5 Hancock
  by Claude Odell
You think this is just another supper hero movie but this one has a suprising twist and Will Smith did his usual great job, a good action/love story.

3/5 Starts off as a dark comedy and morphs into ...

something else. Overall I enjoyed this movie, mostly because of the three lead actors (Smith, Theron, Bateman) but I thought the "twist" introduced about halfway through was unbelievable and added little to the movie. To be honest, I don't know how I would have wrapped it up, but it would not have been the way things actually play out. Worth watching if your expectations are not too high.
