Movie Review: The Incredible Hulk


This was a smashing movie, even if the plot was a pretty weak.

For me, the movie had a fundamental problem. Edward Norton's character, Eric Banner, didn't seem like one that gets angry easily. If you don't tell me Eric Banner has an anger management problem, I probably won't notice until he turns into the hulk. There's no transition. Edward Norton in American History X was angry. Edward Norton in this movie just has a stress problem.

During the bedroom scene, Eric Banner had to stop because his heart beat was racing. So am I right to say that having sex makes Eric Banner angry and will turn him into the hulk?

The movie's pretty packed with action that after a while, you'll forgive the movie for its weak plot.

3.5/5

  1. Incidentally, Edward Norton also re-wrote the script for this movie. i guess it's still better than Ang Lee's Hulk played by Eric Bana in 2003.
