Marvel has done it again for the second time this summer. They've left me heading out of the theaters totally blown away.
I haven't really been a follower of the hulk comics, and after seeing Ang Lee's take on the Hulk I wasn't so sure if this would be a good movie. Iron Man was a great movie, but I was felt that the Hulk just wasn't an interesting superhero.
I was with some friends today just killing time, and we were at the theaters. They suggested we see the hulk, but I wasn't so sure about it. I argued and told them it was probably going to be a bad movie. After some debating I finally reluctantly went to see the green man.
I groaned watching the first few minutes, because they reminded me a little of the 2003 film. However, as the film continued I was mesmerized by the fast paced and interesting story. No scene felt boring, and all of the scenes felt useful in connecting the story.
Instead of going deep into the Hulk's origins, like the 2003 film did, this version explored Bruce Banner trying to find a cure and get rid of the hulk. This film's story worked great, and Edward Norton did excellent portraying all the emotions that Bruce Banner went through being the hulk. The anger, the frustration, the disappointment, and the hope were all acted out skillfully by Norton.
Norton was helped out by the awesome job done by the supporting cast. William Hurt did awesome as the ruthless general, Liv Tyler was exceptional and really showed Betty Ross's love for Bruce Banner. Tim Roth did alright, I thought he could've been more aggressive though.
The first film, I believe, lacked in action, this film doesn't at all lack in action. Norton's great acting made me feel for Banner, and then when the action happened I was on the edge of my seat. The chase scene in this film is one of the greatest chase scenes I've ever seen. Thanks to the wonderful cinematography this film's action truly stand out from the first film.
The CGI was alright, but I personally felt they could've made it look better. I wasn't disappointed by the Hulk, but I didn't exactly feel fear when looking at the green man. However, the CGI in the movie was by no means bad. I was amazed by a few scenes in this movie, and I really had fun watching this.
The little cameo at the end was really interesting, because it left a lot of options opened for film makers to work with in the Marvel universe.
Finally, when I got off my seat 117 minutes later, I can safely say I was wrong and I was completely blown away by this movie. This film delivered, and it delivered beautifully. After releasing a terrible film like Spiderman 3, Marvel has been revived in my eyes.
This is definitely Marvel's summer, and with films like Hancock and the dark knight coming up this looks like an awesome year for superhero movies!

I first started watching Batman Beyond when I was 10 years old in 1999. The show was great, and I had a lot of fun watching it. I recently rented the first season and sat down and watched the first few episodes. I was amazed by how much quality the show had. The story, music, action, animation were wonderful.
The story is very powerful. It begins with Terry McGinnis, a 17 year old atlethic student who fights against a gang and runs into Bruce Wayne who saves him. I was very pleased to hear Kevin Conroy voice Batman, because in terms of voice he IS batman. His ability to express emotion and play that character's voice is unmatched. Anyways, they meet and Terry soon discovers that Bruce Wayne is Batman. Terry ends up becoming a new batman after a series of events unfold.
The animation and action is excellent in this show. Even though its aimed for kids, there's a lot of fighting, and the story is very dark. They did a great job with drawing. Every frame has great quality and it looks like a lot of work has been put into it. The music is very subtle, but its well done. The main theme is terrific, and expresses Batman perfectly.
So, overall, this TV show was great. It was made 8 years ago, but it is still a great show to watch today. The creators of this show need to put it back on, because it was truly a great show.
