The other side of super hero

Rating: 9/10 (18 August 2013)

I was amazed by the reviews in meta critic and low score. Not that I don't rely on these score to choose what movie to watch and what to skip but Hancock is a real exception.
The movie rather than showing the all powerful side of the superheroes and the wonder of being immortal; the movie the showcased how lonely can a superhero be, if he is living an immortal life. The romance between the immortal pair who becomes mortal and victim of attacks was so beautifully shown that I watched the movie more than a dozen time.
Will smith is so much believable as the lonely superhero. Neither the super powers of Hancock nor the action scenes makes these movie a wonder for me but it is the vulnerability and the undying love.
I will simply recommend you to watch the movie without the superhero angle, it is only an added plus.
Believe me giving a 9 to this movie is totally justified.
