Hancock (Unrated Special Edition) [Blu-ray]

Academy Award® nominee Will Smith (Best Actor, The Pursuit of Happyness, 2006) stars in this action-packed comedy as Hancock, a sarcastic, hard-living and misunderstood superhero who has fallen out of favor with the public. When Hancock grudgingly agrees to an extreme makeover from idealistic publicist Ray Embrey (Jason Bateman, Juno), his life and reputation rise from the ashes and all seems right again--until he meets a woman (2003 Academy Award® winner Charlize Theron, Best Actress, Monster) with similar powers to his and the key to his secret past.

35 stars for the original! 3 for the unrated...  Jul 07, 2010
I enjoyed the original theatrical version of Hancock. I was disappointed when I purchased the unrated version, and the scene that was added in that made it "unrated," and the part turned the movie around for me completely, so I could not watch it with my little sister! If I could've taken it back at that point for the original version, then I most definitely would've. I have yet to watch it again. Other than that, the original movie has like 5 stars from me!

If you like superhero films like the Fantastic Four, Spiderman, Daredevil, Ghost Rider, or any of the other Marvel ilk then don't buy Hancock.

This movie has a tremendous amount of humor-- how many other superheroes do you know of that gets sued and arrested for all the damage that gets caused by crime fighting? And Hancock does do a lot of damage; sometimes it seems, just for the hell of it.

But the biggest difference-- the one that a lot of people who are fond of mindless superhero origins-- is that Hancock's background is both unique and touching, so we not only have a superhero but also something of a tragic hero. In this movie, the hero doesn't get the girl, but in this case, that's a good thing. Hancock is the superhero, but his pal Ray is subtly heroic in his own way and that adds a bit of pathos not usually found in movies of this type, yet it all works out in the end.

This is a darn good movie, though badly underrated by people stuck in the Marvel mold who can't think outside the box. If you want a superhero movie that goes beyond the usual tripe, you really should see this one. Trust me, you'll love it. :-)
