Advanced preview thing at Cineworld, and as I couldn't be bothered to see Charlie's Angels and already seen Bruce Almighty, this was the only real choice.

I wasn't that confident, although Chopper was in it. But I was surprised. It wasn't until I got in there that I realised Ang Lee was directing, so it'd be subtle moral undertone as opposed to Sam Raimi and his subtle-as-a-car crash morals in Spider-man.

It's not a straight superhero movie such as Spider-man, exploring the psychological reasons for Chopper suddenly becoming big and green and so on. Nick Nolte was class, but Jennifer Connolly, having being crap in A Beautiful Mind (stole the Oscar, shame shame etc), was equally bad in this. But she's not in it all that much.

So don't go in expecting Hulk to be all "grr, Hulk angry, smash Yank-army" and so forth. Although he does, swinging tanks around and putting his angry Hulk-fists through Hulk dogs. Yes, Hulk dogs. Sounds stupid, but actually worked quite well. The character-to-character emoting type stuff is the major part of this film, not the action. It's more a original Batman than an X-Men or Spider-man.

Not amazing, but a decent film. Worth seeing. That's all.

Well, he leaps about a bit, yeah. But he's a Hulk, so it's understandable. Looks good, too.

I'd rather wait for it to show on sky or something.

The CGI looks dreadful.
And the Hulk was NEVER that strong.

I hate Hollywood remakes. In the Incredible Hulk, he justs turned into a bigger human with green skin. He didn't grow twenty feet tall and have green eyeballs and stuff. Sheesh.

Who said he could leap 3 miles? He takes hefty bounds, thats all.
