This makes up for 'Hulk'

Rating: 7/10 (14 June 2008)

I will admit that I was not ready to see this movie, the idea of sitting through another 'Hulk' movie was the last thing on my list.
So with my large Icee in hand I faced my fears and went to see it.
I can honestly say I was surprised.
This Hulk had the feel of the TV show and 'felt' right. Norton was strange as Banner, sometimes it seemed like he was trying too hard, but in others he was perfect. Liv Tyler was OK, not her best work ever, but she was nice to look at. Hurt was a bad bad man, and played his character well (hell by the end of the movie I was mad at him) And Roth was far from being the best villain in movie history, his acting in this film left MUCH to be desired.
The movie had its moments of humor (You wouldn't like me when I'm hungry)and the purple pants bit were great. Also it was nice to see a cameo by Stan Lee and a larger roll than just a walk by by Lou Ferrigno. Plus, we didn't have to wait till then end of the end credits for the extra cameo by Mr Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr).
The movie itself placed various other Marvel items through it, Stark Industires logos clearly visible, a medical report signed by Nick Fury, iron man hints, even talk of a super soldier formula....nice bits of trivia that were a welcome surprise.
All in all a good film, since the franchise couldn't get any worse, but this does what Batman Begins did for the Batman franchise.
Good job Marvel, keep it up.
