The Incredible Hulk Movie Review

Thursday, June 19th, 2008 | Movie Reviews

Happy Thursday!

1. Last night I saw The Incredible Hulk. It was fine. The major problem with it was that the least interesting parts of the movie involved the Hulk. Any scene involving a giant green monster whose major skill is crushing things should be the most exciting part of any movie. Sadly, it wasn’t. The Hulk just didn’t look real. At all. He looked kind of adorable. Like The Green Giant going through a rather bad bout of puberty.

The chase scenes involving Eddie Norton were actually pretty great. In fact, I think I would have really liked this movie if it was just about a scientist who was on the run from the government. That would have been pretty sweet. Tim Roth was delightfully maniacal and William Hurt looks like the prototypical abusive father with that mustache he’s sporting in this movie. Seriously, his mustache should be nominated for best supporting actor. Speaking of awards for acting, Liv Tyler shouldn’t get one. She’s pretty bad. Unless she’s screaming. When she’s screaming, she’s actually pretty good.

That’s the reason I don’t want to see it; I think the Hulk looks ridiculous. Lou Ferrigno is way scarier.

The last HULK movie scarred me for life (in its badness, not in its scariness), so I think I’ll have to pass on this one.

I would advise a pass, although Lou does have an awesome cameo.

I fortunately scored screening tickets to this movie, so I at least didn’t have to waste my money.
