| Posted by: Crazy Dud at July 7, 2008, 1:52 am | | Topic: Hancock Forum: JoBlo | | This is a tough movie to review. The first two-thirds of the movie are great, but it veers off in a rather strange and unwelcome direction in the final act. However, though I first hated this "twist," after thinking about it a while I realize that it fits the film better than I initially thought and gives it more thematic depth than it would otherwise have had. Most importantly, Will Smith turns in another fine performance. Just as he did in I Am Legend, Smith's stellar performance elevates what would otherwise be a rather standard film. As of right now, he is the only actor in Hollywood who is almost guaranteed to open a movie big, and for good reason. He is a good actor, and has an incredible amount of charm and character on screen. In Hancock he has perhaps created his most memorable character yet. Before seeing it, be forewarned that there is a left-field twist in the final act that definitely could have been better, but that you are ultimately watching this movie to have Will Smith entertain you with his character of John Hancock, and in that regard the movie most definitely succeeds. 7/10 |
