Yesterday if you follow me on Twitter, I said I was leaving to watch Hancock. I’m not a big fan of the cinema and I hate making the journey across London just to meet with friends but it was my birthday (two days after) and I though why not!

Anyway, like every Will smith movie, there is a lot of hype and advertisement  which started to piss me off, the advertisement was shit and over used. On the way to college I can swear there were about 20 buses with the Hancock ad. Another part of the advertisement which does my head in is the cheesy slogan … “There are heroes. There are superheroes. And then there’s…” you see what I mean this is pretty much the lamest thing ever and before I even see the movie.

Like I mentioned above the movie hold a Will Smith formula, the formula is…

You like the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air? + iRobot? + Pursuit of happiness? = you will love this one!

But the case isn’t so; you see the movie is a typical Hollywoody – we have someone who does nothing but bad stuff but then ironically ends up the hero. Anyway the movie is aimed at the summer blockbuster where it fights with ‘Wanted’ and that fat panda. I mean the movie made no sense, he cannot get killed … he was shoot in the face nothing happens but then he gets shoot and he starts bleeding … and they don’t even explain what happened (his powers don’t go). I really don’t know where to start with this movie, to sum it up think ‘My super Ex-Girlfriend’ with drama tossed here and there. The movie has probably one good twist which really gives us a light on who is Hancock, he is a ‘God’ who has lived for decades if not centuries and now people call his type ‘Super heroes’. We later know that Hancock lost his memory and doesn’t remember anything. The name Hancock comes from a nurse, because he doesn’t remember his name and when asked to sign out of the hospital the nurse asks for his ‘John Hancock’ which means signature.

Overall if you seen the trailer then you seen the movie, nothing more or less.

Not sure why all movies I review are crap, I have yet to review a movie which I like, Wanted is better than this crap. Will smith fails again.
