So I've just seen the Incredible Hulk, I'l keep this spoiler free, but give my thoughts about the movie all the same.
WOW! This is the HULK we should have seen in 2003. A much, much better film. Not up there with Superman, Spider-Man 2 or Iron-Man. Even though I personally enjoyed it better than Iron-Man. That's my fault, because I spoiled Iron-Man for myself, stupidly, watching all of the clips for it on the internet.
Anyway, I have to say Ed Norton is great in this movie, really nicely portrayal of Banner and not that annoying, weak Banner that Bana gave us (although I blame Ang Lee for that). Nortons character had some balls and take care of himself if he needed to. Liv Tyler did a great job as Betty (She's really cute in this movie, boys!) and the both of them had fantastic chemistry. I would go as far as say, albeit in a different style, they had as good as chemistry as Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder as Lois & Clark in the first 2 Superman films. I really brought into the whole Bruce & Betty relationship. General Ross, was overdone & played by Hurt. But everyone else was done really well, except for "Banner's internet friend" Speak about them after everyone else has seen it...
The CGI was mainly good and I found this funny, the Helicopters looked faker than the beasts in the street. All of the cameo and fanboy nods where nice & discreet. I really enjoyed this movie and this it was better than Spider-Man 1 & 3. A good Marvel movie all and all. Worth of a sequel for sure and I hope good word of mouth helps this movie get the box office return it warrants.
And just to clarify, this is a good movie, not a great, fantastic movie... It's just a solid decent HULK film we've wanted to see since 2003! I hope everyone else likes the movie!
Finally I'll say this... HOT TOYS WHERE IS MY 1:6th 20" HULK figure??? I need one!!!
