Stinking Drunk or Not, Will Smith Takes Box Office with Hancock

Critics (the kind that gets paid for it, and the kind that don’t) may not have liked it very much, but the American public couldn’t give a damn, as they flocked to the theaters in droves to make Will Smith’s “Hancock” king of the box office, proving yet again that the indomitable...

Hancock (2008) Movie Review #2

Talk about a bad rep. No, not Hancock the drunken superhero’s – I’m talking about “Hancock” the movie. Peter Berg’s drunken superhero movie hasn’t exactly been embraced by movie reviewers on or off-line, and the main bone of contention seems to be its haphazardly written and executed Plot...

Hancock (2008) Movie Review

Studios like an actor who is a “sure thing,” and Will Smith is one of those. He’s an extremely bankable superstar who is seemingly loved by all age groups and ethnicities, because he’s likable. Look at his top four grossing films, ranked in order from highest to lowest, “Independence Day,”...

Hancock Movie Reviews

Peter Berg’s upcoming “Hancock” is the only comic book superhero movie not based on an actual comic book, and from all the advance reviews we’ve read on the movie, the film has an apparently very spectacular blah Third Act, i.e. the final 20-30 minutes of the film goes so far...

I don’t care what anyone says, or how many bad reviews come out of the film’s advance screenings, I’m still looking forward to Peter Berg’s “Hancock”. Will Smith + superhero + Summer. How could you go wrong with that? Okay, so there was “Wild Wild West”,...

Last-Minute Reshoots for Hancock

Uh oh. I smell trouble. When a movie like “Hancock”, which costs untold millions to make, has to come out of its slumber to reshoot something for 12-hours with the star of the movie present and in character, it’s pretty easy to think that something is wrong in the land of “Hancock”....

New Hancock Images and Trailer

It’s hard to believe that Peter Berg’s “Hancock” didn’t start out life as a comic book, because it has the potential of being the best comic book movie of the summer. Okay, so maybe it’s got its work cut out for it, in a Summer full of big-time comic book movies like...

I don’t care what all the advance screening reviews have said, Peter Berg’s “Hancock” is still right up there on my list of “Most Wanted” movies to see in the Summer. How could the combination of funny-heroic Will Smith, a smoking hot Charlize Theron, and Peter Berg...

A Ton of New Pics from Will Smith’s Hancock

Okay, so maybe that advance screening held for “Hancock” a few days ago didn’t go so well (most of the reviews panned it), but that still won’t damper my enthusiasm for it. You put Peter Berg with a comic book storyline (though not based on a comic, ironically), and then add a...

A Review of Peter Berg’s Hancock — SPOILERS

Tonight he comes, and it sucks donkey balls? That seems to be the opinion of a fellow in Texas (Plano, Texas, to be exact), who got sent an invitation to see the first-ever screening of “Hancock” (aka the only superhero movie this summer that isn’t based on a comic book), which is directed...

Superhero Images from Will Smith’s Hancock

Movie Poster: Will Smith’s Hancock

The tagline for Will Smith’s drunken superhero movie reads: “There are heroes. There are superheroes. And then there’s…Hancock.” And after having seen the trailer (here if you missed it), I’m warming to the idea of the title being “Hancock” instead of the...

Movie Trailer: Hancock (aka Tonight, He Comes)

I’ve been railing about the name change to the Will Smith superhero movie “Tonight, He Comes” for a while now, but after seeing the trailer — yeah, I’m gonna have to agree with it. Calling this movie “Tonight, He Comes” wouldn’t be correct, because this...
