I thought the plot was lacking hugely. Overall, I didn't really like the movie at all. If Will Smith wasn't in it, it would have been terrible.

You've made your point on the Wall-E matter, no need to bring it up again in this thread. Now you're just getting petty and troll-like. Grow up.

God i was so disappointed with this movie. The premise is amazing - a hobo who is a super hero LOL! But the writing, the direction and the execution reminded me of a glorified teen Disney movie i'd watch sunday afternoon after waking to an intense hangover.

After this i went and saw Wanted which was soooo much better.

Grow up? You're the one getting troll like trying to come at me over a 5 word line. That's why I left it at that with zero specifics. Relax. And learn what maturity means before you try insulting other people about it.

Especially since this is clearly a prequel to the upcoming Thor movie. I think Hancock is going to end up "passing the torch" to a Mjolnir-dependent mortal, though. (I have a suspicion that he is going to become Mjolnir somehow)


I dunno if I'm being Romanian with this (probably), but is there any basis for this spoiler? It'd be quite the stretch but would definitely be amusing. But Hancock has no connection with Marvel right?

I think they deliberately hid the connection to ease people into it, because Thor is going to be a hard sell, despite being an indispensible original member of the Avengers. But there was a tell in the sneak clip (just after the credits), when a guy compares Hancock in his new costume to Wolverine (of the X-Men).

I think it's a bit of a stretch myself. As far as I know there is connection between Hancock and Marvel. I really don't think that this movie is "clearly a prequel" to any movie, and, at best, has only a very tenuous connection to Thor. A nice theory, but I think based more on hope than actual evidence.

lol that's pretty much the opposite of what I thought about the movies; Wanted seemed brainless and poorly done while the only thing that bothered me about Hancock was over-use of an unsteady camera.

Just saw the movie, It was pretty good between a 7 or 8 out of 10.

+ Show Spoiler +
Before that fight between both of them, the one with the 3 cyclones on the street, did anyone notice a robot or something taller and not human shaped running between the cars, the camera was on it for like 2 seconds a long with other extras as they ran away.

I just watched it like fifteen minutes ago. I thought it was pretty decent for the first third, but as the movie progressed, it all just fell apart.
Super serious.

Okay the part where white guy try to teach him manners is pretty awesome and hilarious, but once he becomes a righteous hero he becomes lame and the plot just flops dead.
The whole gods shits irks me so.

I hate plot holes. They shouldn't have given some half-assed explanation for his powers, they should have given a good one or none at all. "We're the gods' insurance policy." What the fuck? Yeah, they sure prevented the world from degenerating.
