August 22, 2008This superhero flick not only works as an action-adventure & an comedy, but it also works as an brilliant & multi-faceted character piece about an worldwide archetype: the reluctant hero.

February 15, 2009Potential is wasted by half-way point when the 'twist' hits the plot. (You knew something was up when you saw the female co-star.)
Unfortunately, this made money off of Smith's name, so a sequel is in works. Pray for us. -
July 3, 2009Decent flick. I wasn't expecting to see a drunk, angry, bitter superhero. . .I liked it. Wasn't too crazy bout Charlize Theron's role. I think the movie would've been better without her being a woman w/superpowers & being married to Hancock for hundreds of years.

Will Smith and a great cast are not enough to keep this from becoming a soaring disappointment in this summer's superhero movie sweepstakes. full review

Hancock is still a lot of fun. Will Smith remains one of the most likable of movie stars, and he's a virtuoso of underplayed sarcasm. full review

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
A new movie that makes the previous pandemonium seem downright restrained. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
As for Smith, he's on fire. There's nothing like a star shining on his highest beams. You follow him anywhere. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Hancock is a lot of fun, if perhaps a little top-heavy with stuff being destroyed. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Almost any moviegoer should be able to find something to enjoy, but it's hard to imagine anyone liking this mishmash from beginning to end. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
What starts out with a sense of quirky fun loses direction and devolves into a mishmash of story lines. full review

It's the sort of role Smith ought to be able to pull off easily. But even his superpowers apparently have their limits. full review

July 28, 2008I love action movies. Haven't seen the movie yet, but from what I've seen on the previews, it looks like a great movie, something that will keep you on the edge of your seat. I love watching Will Smith because in his own way, he gets a little comedic with it, like he's not afraid to change the story lines, push the limit a little bit. He's very mannly and handsome!!
