Will you be my hero Hancock?

Advantages: Willl Smith is good, funny in parts
Disadvantages: Not best story ever

...it a go. Hancock is a story about a superhero called Hancock (Will Smith). Hancock isn't your normal superhero though. He drinks, he is lazy, he tends to break things a lot and no-one seems to like him much. We see him in the beginning of the film lying on a bench, drunk looking a bit like someone who is homeless. He has to be woken up by a child to show him that there is a high speed police chase going on. Hancock goes to help but as usual seems ...
...the car. Just in time Hancock flies in and tips the car up throwing it on to the cards queued behind whilst stopping the train with his body. The people are still annoyed as Hancock has thrown the car on theirs, causing a lot of damage as usual. One man appreciates his gesture though and that is Ray. Hancock flies the car back to Rays house where he meets Rays wife Mary (Charlize Theron) and son Aaron (Jae Head). Ray invites Hancock in for dinner ...

Who knew that gorgeous muscle men could act?!

Advantages: Funny, entertaining, good action
Disadvantages: Childish at times

Welcome To The Jungle is an action comedy film released back in 2003. The film was originally called The Rundown, the title was used in certain countries including America however Welcome To The Jungle was the title that was used in the majority of countries. The film did well with the critics wit 71% giving the film a good review. The film is rated 12 and runs for approximately 104 minutes. The film grossed an estimated $80,916,492 at the box office. ...
...the two actors triumphed with Welcome To The Jungle, the two are very funny together and have some great moments. Their size is played on a lot too, I believe The Rock is about 6’5 and Sean William Scott no more than 5’9. M only critism would be that sometimes things do get a bit silly and tedious, the same jokes seem to be used more than once throughout the film and that can become very tiresome. The stories good and there’s some really good action ...

WWE in the jungle, well not quite

Advantages: good action parts, storyline
Disadvantages: rock isnt exactly the best actor

...ancient woodland, it is called welcome to the jungle after all. The rock uses some of his great acrobatic skills learnt in the wwe ring to great effect in the film doing a lot of his own stunts, although since wwe is faked he does not pull them of to perfection and this holds the film back I would reccomend you check out this film as although it may not be the greatest action movie ever written it does contain some good acting from the Rock in ...

...WHSmith. ***CRANK 2*** Crank 2: High Voltage was released this year and contains Jason Statham again. Chelio’s tears through the town in search for the Chinese criminal who has possession of his heart. Amy Smart, Dwight Yoakham, and Efren Ramirez revisit their roles from the original film. ***OVERALL OPINION*** I think Jason Statham is a fantastic actor anyway and I have to say that I loved this film. It was full of action and also has some funny ...
...I wouldn’t hesitate to watch Crank 2. My dad did how-ever borrow the DVD and after 30mins he switched it off as he couldn’t quite get into the film. If you like Jason as an actor and if you like his other films I think you with thoroughly enjoy this film. I would recommend it to anyone who like’s action packed films. (review als on dooyoo) ...
