Released: July 2nd
PG-13 - Drama
Produced by: Louis D'Esposito
Written by: Vince Gilligan, Vincent Ngo
Directed by: Peter Berg
Starring: Will Smith, Charlize Theron, Jason Bateman, Adam Del Rio, Jameson Dixon Jr.
Synopsis...
There are heroes. There are superheroes. And, then there's Hancock. With great power comes great responsibility--everyone knows that--everyone, that is, but Hancock. Edgy, conflicted, sarcastic and misunderstood, Hancock's well-intentioned heroics might get the job done and save countless lives, but always seem to leave jaw-dropping damage in their wake. The public has finally had enough--as grateful as they are to have their local hero, the good citizens of Los Angeles are wondering what they ever did to deserve this guy. Hancock isn't the kind of man who cares what other people think--until the day that he saves the life of PR executive Ray Embrey, and the sardonic superhero begins to realize that he may have a vulnerable side after all. Facing that will be Hancock's greatest challenge yet--and a task that may prove impossible as Ray's wife, Mary, insists that he's a lost cause.
_ _ _
Now this looks like it has true potential. It will be good to get away from these overrated comic book movies heading into a true hero type movie. What interests me is it looks REAL. As in, not the typical American hero saves the day junk. This movie looks to be really great, or an epic fail. The previews look awesome however. Especially the one where the throws the whale into the ocean, lands on the boat and the guy in the water goes on about how he got the footage.
