Excellent movie - I don't understand the bad press

Rating: 10/10 (7 July 2008)

I really don't understand the bad press surrounding this movie.
It seems these days when an unwatchable movie gets made, some internet reviewers say it's brilliant (woa, they got it, they must be so much smarter than anyone else).
Conversely when a good and very watchable movie like hancock gets made, these same reviewers decide to poop on it, which again places them on some kind of pedestal.
Hancock falls in the second category.
The movie starts off in one of the most intense action scenes in the whole movie, it also lets us understand clearly who Hancock is.
The pace of the movie is good, and beat is good, laughs are absolutely assured, breadth and depth of emotions are definitely there, special effects are great, and the movie leaves the viewers satisfied. In fact there was even some cheering at the end on behalf of the audience.
Go and watch it with no hesitation at all, highly recommended.
