My husband just yesterday purchased a copy of The Incredible Hulk DVD and I must say it’s better than I thought it to would be. We see scientist Bruce Banner living in darkness, scrubbing the world for an antidote. However the militarists who daydream of abusing his abilities won’t leave him be, nor will his need to hook up with the only woman he has ever loved, Betty Ross.
The Incredible Hulk stars the perpetually strong Edward Norton. It also stars the beautiful Liv Tyler and every bit as real Tim Roth and directed by the gifted Louis Leterrier. The movie grossed a acceptable $134 million at the box office since it’s debut June 13th. It was wrote by Zak Penn and Edward Harrison, produced by Avi Arad, Gale Anne Hurd and Kevin Feige.
I’m still not excessively overenthusiastic about the persona, but the film is rapid, well acted, and captures that precious comic book sense. From its metaphorical anger management to a stringently platonic not so incredible hunk, this massive on the muscle mass and low on the drama The Incredible Hulk Blu-ray is not exactly new and improved, but does shape its own brand of differently conceived mega action magic. A solid thrill ride. In That Respect are a couple witty pieces, and the whole moves swiftly.
Still, even if there weren’t script and performance inadequacies — and there certainly are — the big problem with both Hulk movies is that the lead character is an unconvincing CG innovation. Boring pacing and a muted sound production only contribute to the CGI disaster inflicted on what could have been a believable superhero made with 21st century engineering.
On the whole The Incredible Hulk is a worthwhile waste of a weekend. Strange a design as it is, The Incredible Hulk actually calculates as something of a winner. The Incredible Hulk offers the action and hullabaloo to please comic book buffs and re-ignite this failing franchise.
