Review: My feeling about this movie is the same as when I saw it first some years ago: it is a nice original superhero movie, although the last half hour is a bit dissapointing especially after an incredible revelation. Will Smith plays an anti-hero for a change and does it well, and I find Jason Bateman very funny when he tries to improve Hancock's behavior. I bought the movie in Blu-ray to spend a good time watching it again and it is exactly what I got. Some of the special effects could have been better done though. |

It is a good superhero movie because the superhero is weak. Some things are repeated too many times, like the landing of the drunk superhero on a car or so. But well, the twist is interesting and the effects are well done and different than usual superhero movie. My rating is 6/10.
