I saw Hancock the other day, and there’s no doubt in my mind that Will Smith is now the biggest movie star on the planet. Even a mediocre film such as this drew huge crowds and posted huge numbers. I went on Tuesday afternoon at 2:00 PM and the theater was packed. Go figure. The movie was just okay. It was different for a superhero movie, but that’s just it, it was different, not special.
On the bright side, there were 3 things that were great about the movie: 1) Charlize Theron, 2) Jason Bateman, and 3) the soundtrack. I forgot how good looking Charlize Theron is, and she was perfect for the role that she played. Jason Bateman is probably one of the most underated actors in Hollywood. And finally, soundtracks are supposed to not really be noticed, but I noticed this one, and I didn’t mind it. The special effects were good. The plot was just okay, and as much as we like Will Smith as a genre actor, I just didn’t buy him in this role.

I saw it this past weekend and it was ok. It seemd like the movie couldn't decide if wanted to a superhero film, a comedy or a bad episode of the twilight zone. I disaree with you Charlize she was just eye candy. Overall it wasn't a bad film it just seems like they couldn't pull it together to make a great film
You misunderstood me on the Charlize Theron point. My point was that looking at her was one of the good things about the movie. Being eyecandy was a plus.
