    This 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.

    Really liked the first half but wasn't that interested after the unexpected twist. I think they should have explored the fact that he was a homeless alcoholic superhero more rather than the romantic angel stuff. Imagine if the Coen Brothers had directed it, now that would have be...( read more)en a five star film!

    Tricky, Hancock is a reasonable film, nothing special. The spoof type superhero thing is kinda old now and the effects are nothing special as we see things like this in films ALL the time now, big deal.there are some nice sequences and afew funny parts and the way Hancock is bein...( read more)g presented the film is trying to get u to relate and feel for Hancock, what would it really be like to be in his postion?

    This does work to a degree but it just annoys you cos you really want to have his ability and you want him to actually be a villian maybe haha I would say the first half of the film is good but the second half is not so good, the plot goes AWOL when he finds another 'superhero' person and things just get naf. It gets too serious near the end and loses it genre, is this a comedy, spoof or something to think about? a serious comedy?
    The plot also becomes alittle odd and if you don't listen you lose it easy haha I'm still unsure myself but it seems the further away from the other superhero person the stronger their powers? is that right?

    It's a lost chance for me, I dont like Theron, she's very overrated, same for Will Smith, highly overrated. Could of been much better and funnier.

    Entertaining and visual but suprisingly lacked any real punch.

    I watched this film four times in a weekend. I thought I was missing something. I wasn't. Nothing really happens. OK the effects were good but that's about it. Where's the action?
    Ooooh look, he can fly and he's tough. So what. Gimme some meat.

    Yet another Will Smith film that failed to live up to my expectations. This is a real film of two halves. When we are first introduced to the badly behaved, heavy drinking superhero Hancock it was a pleasure to sit through. Some genuine laugh out loud great action comedy moments....( read more) But from the moment Hancock meets Jason Bateman's PR character all the laughs stop and the film becomes boring and slow. Suddenly it's a sickly feel good film. Complete with stereotyped sweet shy kid, and love story. It also has one of the most vomit inducing Hollywood treacle Endings ever. And whats with the extreme close-ups of the actors? Is there any real need for them in every scene? Sorry but this could have been an amazing and original film but the film makers really dropped the ball. And Charlize Theron is wasted in this film. Treated as little more than eye candy. What a shame.
