"Really not OK" (spoilers)

Rating: 2/10 (3 July 2008)

This movie does not live up to the hype at all. I don't even know where to begin. As a comic reader I don't think the idea of a substance abusing superhero is all that new, however, it's not something we see on film that often so kudos to the makers for that. That, however, does not save the film from an underdeveloped story with characters I didn't give a crap about. The ending was so anticlimactic, the vague origin of Hancock and Mary felt uninspired and too convenient, and the humor was hackneyed and unoriginal. It turned into a different movie halfway through and got really boring.
I can honestly say this movie was worse than what I was expecting (and I wasn't expecting much after seeing the trailers). It's not a good popcorn movie; it's not even a good TV dinner movie. I wish I had seen WALL-E instead.
