Hancock the man

My two cents on Hancock

Who is tired of watching superheroes movie, raise up their hand. I can see a whole lot of hands out there and I understand why cause two of my hands are raised and waving wildly. Same plot , same old story... yawn, *tears rolling down my cheeks*

Hancock saves the day by bringing a refreshing change from typical movies about heroes who only want to do good to a super human (I can't call him a hero cause he doesn't act like a typical one) who couldn't care less.

Like the woman who is only attracted to the sexy bad boy read Justin Timberlake and Elvis Presley , I am attracted to Hancock.

It is quite miraculous that nobody gets killed which makes this movie an easy watch. And there is a lot of holes of you are the nitty gritty kinda audience. But you gotta be relieved that they hide the gore and bloody mess.

Instead you get to enjoy the fantastic view of ginormous infrastucture and materials being damaged by Hancock's intentional clumsiness. Yummy ... my eyes enjoy the superb effects.

I think another person deserving of credit from the movie is the little but not so innocent child in the movie. He looks like the boy from Home Improvement only more crude and sarcastic. I like the way he told Hancock off. Man.. he is really adorable. Should be given a larger role in the movie. Bet some talent hunter are going to hire him for their next movie and he will be catapulted to stardom.

Beats me why they call this movie Hancock though. I couldn't recall the title the first time I saw it to be able to strike a conversation with my friends about it. Instead I labelled it the new Will Smith movie. Aside from that I can't wait to watch this movie and share a good belly laugh with my homies.
