Hancock


Synopsis

There are heroes… there are superheroes… and then there’s Hancock. With great power comes great responsibility – everyone knows that – everyone, that is, but Hancock. Edgy, conflicted, sarcastic, and misunderstood, Hancock’s well-intentioned heroics might get the job done and save countless lives, but always seem to leave jaw-dropping damage in their wake. The public has finally had enough – as grateful as they are to have their local hero, the good citizens of Los Angeles are wondering what they ever did to deserve this guy.

Hancock isn’t the kind of man who cares what other people think – until the day that he saves the life of PR executive Ray Embrey, and the sardonic superhero begins to realize that he may have a vulnerable side after all. Facing that will be Hancock’s greatest challenge yet – and a task that may prove impossible as Ray’s wife, Mary, insists that he’s a lost cause.

Comment

From the moment this film opens, we are dazzled by the thrills and spills of out of this world special effects. This movie is action packed!

Aside from this, it's also very funny and I was surprised that this movie had quite a bot of adult humour in there!

A great fun film that impresses with it's big bucks Hollywood special effects that we have come to expect from a Will Smith action movie. The ending is a little predictable, but it's well worth a look.
