Movie Review: "Hancock"


I just finished watching the movie "Hancock" starring Will Smith and Charlize Theron. While this was not one of the worst movies that I have ever seen, I would have expected a lot more of Will and Charlize. This movies was about an unexpected superhero (Smith) who uses his superpowers to fight crime, but in the end usually causes more trouble than help. One day he is introduced to Theron's character who turns out to be his opposite in superpowers (lost you yet?).

It turns out that certain superheroes are produced in twos, and they happen to be a pair. They have a past, most of which is not remembered by Hancock because of so much trauma caused during an attack during their last fling together.

I am sure that I have left some things out, and I did not give away the ending, but you will just have to watch it yourself. Unfortunately I missed some parts due to falling asleep here and there. Once again, not the worst movie ever, but I was expecting much more.
