Paul Bad Movie Review: Hancock!

It's time for YET ANOTHER PAUL MAC Bad Movie Review In Brief. This time, Hancock!

Hancock - Your basic feel good Will Smith 90 minute flick + a few cuss words (gasp). In other words it's something the high schooler's probably went see because there isn't anything else to do on Friday night when you're 13. That being said, it's got a few good moments and was a pretty good human story overall. For one the idea of a drunken stumbling depressed superhero is kind of funny and Hancock does manage to tell a bunch of people blocking a rail crossing after he destroys a train that they are stupid, which is also funny. Perhaps not so predictably it has a somewhat heartwarming ending to the standard boy finds girl boy fights with and loses girl boy gets girl back only to lose girl but it's a good thing yadda yadda... It's not a movie you will want to watch more than one time but it's worth watching sometime on FX or something or even netflixing if only for Charlize Theron.

Thanks Paul. His next movie: Tropic Thunder! can't wait!
