actually liked it

Rating: 8/10 (15 October 2008)

I was looking forward to seeing this film, then due to bad reviews didn't bother until today. I was surprised. I thought it was actually are very good blockbuster. Will Smith plays a down and out superhero. He lives in a trailer, has a drink and attitude problem but is near invincible. He, after wrecking much of the city whilst stopping crime, gets much bad press and is wanted by the police. After saving Jason Batemans character, he is advised to clean up his act and people will love him. Will plays the title role brilliantly, and the effects were amazing. I wasn't totally hooked on the twist involving Charlize Therons character at first but warmed to it by the closing credits. I advise everyone, to take no notice of the the bad or good reviews and go see it with an open mind, then decide yourselves. Some will love it and some will hate, I fall into the first bracket.
