John Hancock (Will Smith) is an unhappy and reluctant superhero who is living in his own world. For some unknown reason, Hancock is depressed and has started drinking very heavily. He has saved many lives in Los Angeles over the years, but in doing so, he has no regards for damaging buildings, trains, roads, cars, or anything that gets in his way of getting the job done. The last time he captured several criminals, it cost the city $9 million to fix the damages. The public has had enough of Hancock, and they want him to stop or go to another city. Then one day, Hancock saves the life of Ray Embrey (Jason Bateman) from being run over by a train. Ray is a public relations executive who now can go home to his wife and child, because Hancock was there. Ray owes Hancock his life, and he makes it his mission to change his superhero's image and have the public cheering him. Ray's wife, Mary (Charlize Theron), believes Hancock cannot be fixed, and she doesn't want Ray to be hurt. Douglas Young (the-movie-guy)

Why are they doing this?

Pierce Brosnanwas asked to stay on an extra few days past the original filming schedule. He was offered more money but instead requested and was given a Porsche 911 Carrera.

Author Dean R. Koontz was so disappointed by this adaptation of his novel that he pleaded with the studio to remove his name from the opening credits.

The woman who coached Mandy Moore and Eva Amurri on speaking in tongues gave them several phrases that they could repeat, including "she bought a Hyundai" and "untie my bow tie."

There are two different versions of the "Mary Shaw" poem. In the movie the poem goes, "Beware the stare of Mary Shaw. She had no children only dolls. And if you see her in your dreams, do not ever, ever scream." On the trailer it was, "Beware the stare of Mary Shaw. She had no children, only dolls. And if you see her do not scream, she'll rip your tongue out at the seam."

The character of Evan's Husband (Jake's brother-in-law screenwriter) is based on the writer/director's actual brother in law, screenwriter Scott Frank.

Kelly MacDonald (Pia) was considered for the role of Stella.

The original plan for the movie was for Rutt and Tutt to be the main characters, without any appearance from Kenai or Koda, but that idea was vetoed.

Cruise was attracted to the role after seeing a picture of Stauffenberg, and noticing how similar he looked.

Characters from the film (Frankie the frog and his band playing "I Heard it Through the Grapevine") were used in an anti-cell-phone commercial to encourage movie audiences to turn their cell phones off and behave appropriately.

Shipped to some theaters under the name "The Insane Team".

Ashton Kutcher and Martin Lawrence never met during the making of the film.

Keanu Reeves breaking the glass on the bus door in the beginning of the movie was an accident, however it was left in the final cut.

Much of the scene where Andie crashes Ben's "boy's night" was improvised. Kate Hudson had the idea to toss the platter of veggies at the guys seated at the poker table. Donald Petrie, the director, knew she was going to do this, the actors in the scene were truly surprised.

The original title was "Dairy Queens", but it had to be changed after the corporation that owns the Dairy Queen ice cream chain filed a lawsuit.

The director picked the grocery store that the movie was filmed in because of its "run-down, big city" quality. When the producers paid the owner of the supermarket for permission to film there, the owners took some of that money and repainted and repaired the store, for a more "hollywood" look. The director and producers were understandably unhappy with this, since the only reason they picked the store was how it looked in the first place. The producers, after getting consent from the store, hired a crew to bring the store back to what it had looked like before. The finished product is what you see in the film.

The featured house had to be removed after filming, but costume designer Molly Maginnis led a group of parents that had it dismantled, reconstructed, and enlarged to become a library for the Kenter Canyon school in Brentwood, California. The new library opened in April 2004.

Scarlett Johansson's first movie.



At the time of its release, Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel considered this to be the worst film they'd ever seen. Ebert wrote, "I hated this movie. Hated hated hated hated hated this movie. Hated it. Hated every simpering stupid vacant audience-insulting moment of it. Hated the sensibility that thought anyone would like it. Hated the implied insult to the audience by its belief that anyone would be entertained by it." The pair later reviewed it on their television show, where Ebert went on to say that the movie made him "cringe... just sitting here thinking about it." Gene Siskel characterized it as "junk" and said that it made him feel "unclean." The clip of their review would go on to become a popular internet meme associated with bad movie reviews.

All of the children who appeared in the toy store scene were allowed to take their favorite toy home as part of their salary. Even though it didn't work, Macaulay Culkin was allowed to keep the Talkboy.


~

Macaulay Culkin was paid 8 million dollars to star in this movie, the biggest paycheck ever to a 12 year-old child.

When the film was put into production, Macaulay Culkin was nearly five foot six. A cast of tall adults were hired to create the illusion that Culkin was shorter than he actually was at the time. Most of the cast is taller than six foot.

In the first scene they show a collection of white sneakers that Barry owns. In real life, Jerry Seinfeld is said to have a collection of more than 500 sneakers and they are all white.

Whether by knife or whether by gun, losing your life can sometimes be fun

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr., recorded many of their scenes in the same studio, which is rare for full length animated films.

The scene where Emily and Oliver are standing naked behind the car and Oliver says to her that she just "looked" (at his genital area) hadn't primarily been shot for the movie. It was actually a real moment between Amanda Peet and Ashton Kutcher, which the director decided to use for the film afterwards.

Oliver (Ashton Kutcher) tells his sister Ellen (Taryn Manning) in a phone conversation at a party that he has just ran into her favorite rapper Eminem. Taryn Manning played Eminem's ex-girlfriend in the movie 8 Mile (2002).

Filming took only 45 days.

Unlike most period films, this one was shot almost entirely with a hand-held camera. The two most notable shots with a fixed camera (not a hand held one) are the two panoramas of the interior of the theater, which was intentional.

Jack Fuller: I did take myself out of the game. If you stop betting, you never have to lose.

When James Franco smashes the bong over Danny McBride's head, it was supposed to be a fake, break-away bong so Danny McBride could take part in the stunt. However, it was filled with some water and when James Franco actually smashed it, Danny McBride was actually mildly hurt.

Syndrome was not the original villain picked. At first, the villain's name was going to be Xerek.

A great part of the film was filmed in Russia, where nearly all the crew spoke only Russian. Elisha Cuthbert says that only a handful of the cast were there from America, and formed a tight-knit group since they spoke no Russian.
