Incredible Reboot!
A more accessible and less heavy-handed movie than Ang Lees 2003
HulkLouis Leterriers The Incredible Hulk is a purely popcorn love affair with
Marvels raging, green superhero, as well as the old television series
starring Bill Bixby as Dr. David Banner and Lou Ferrigno as the beast
within him. Edward Norton takes up where Eric Bana left off in Lees
version, playing Bruce (thats the characters original name) Banner, a
haunted scientist always on the move. Trying to eliminate the effects of a
military experiment that turns him into the Hulk whenever his emotions get
the better of him, Banner is hiding out in Brazil at the films beginning.
Working in a bottling plant and communicating via email with an
unidentified professor who thinks he can help, Banner goes postal when
General Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross and a small army turn up to grab
him. Intent on developing whatever causes Banners metamorphoses into a
weapon, Ross brings along a quietly der! anged soldier named Emil
Blonsky (Tim Roth), who wants Ross to turn him into a supersoldier who
can take on the Hulk. The adventure spreads to the U.S., where Banner
hooks up with his old lover (and Ross daughter), Betty (Liv Tyler), and
where the Hulk takes on several armed assaults, including one in a pretty
unusual location: a college campus. The films action is impressive, though
the computer-generated creature is disappointingly cartoonish, and a
second monster turning up late in the movie looks even cheesier. Norton is
largely wasted in the film--hes essentially a bridge between sequences
where he disappears and the Hulk rampages around. As good an actor as
he is, Norton doesnt have the charisma here to carry those scenes in
which one waits impatiently for the real show to begin. --Tom Keogh

this was an excellent reboot of the hulk movie, not a sequel to the first one
which was okay but was kind of slow on the action. This one has more
action, a better story and a better villain. i recommend this on blue ray or
dvd.
