Not Convinced

Rating: 5/10 (30 October 2008)

After reading the scathing newspaper reviews, slating everything the big mean green stood for, I buckled under the 'cynics can never be right pressure' I instead of feeling vindicated leaving the cinema, humble pie was on the menu for all three courses. Tim Roth carries more screen threat as a humanoid and Norton...well it is obvious that he lost interest in this film, he acting declines rapidly as the movie progresses. In form, well its one of the age old problems for Hulk fans, how can you character development someone who has little command of the English language and an IQ of 30? Instead this film substitutes development for smash and grab scenes, of which are irritatingly boring and malais inducing. The script, was noting short of an empty shell, and was obvious driven at tempting the masses into a spectacular show of mind numbing CGI wrestling that Arnold Swarchzenegger would have been proud of in his 80's hayday.
I can honestly say that although the Hulk may appeal to the subconsciousness of the human mind, that somewhere in all of us is the ability to transform into something stronger, or maybe its the fact that the Hulk in a way is our old loved Firt born Anti Hero, it will never work on the big screen.
