Advantages: Norton's performance, in fact the film is brilliant Disadvantages: Nothing springs to mind
After my enjoyment of the first Hulk film (there will be a review when I get round to watching it again!), I was very excitied to see that there was to be a second installment. Following the release of Iron Man, it seemed that the standards for comic book movies had been raised but it was undecided if this new Hulk movie would be able to rise to the standards that had been set by films about other Marvel comic book characters.
So I dutifully dragged hubby along to the cinema to see if this would be as enjoyable to me as the first film. Well, I think it was a joint dragging along, as hubby liked the first film too. And I wanted to see if Edward Norton would be convincing as Bruce Banner!
***Synopsis***
Following the end of the first Hulk movie, Bruce Banner is living and working in South America. He is pretty much incognito ...
Advantages: Good special effects. Easy to get into. Great ending. Disadvantages: Lacked humour.
The IncredibleHulk
Stuck for something to watch over the week-end, we finally decided upon the IncredibleHulk, which is currently showing on Sky Anytime. Initially, me daughter wasn?t interested as she saw it as a ?boy? film, but when I explained about watching the television series whilst growing up, she decided to give it a go.
What?s it all about?
Well, this is a big budget superhero type film, reminiscent of the 1970?s tv series starring Bill Bixby. It tells the story of Dr. David Banner (Edward Norton) who is basically an experiment gone wrong. After being subjected to gamma rays, he has a reaction that turns him into a super strong green monster with super human strength and power. Whilst he thought the experiment was to further research that would help soldiers, the experiments were in fact designed to ...
Advantages: Good film with excellent special effects Disadvantages: none
good and evil, but with cutting edge special effects and action scenes galore this is a great film to watch.
The blu-ray version i watched was a 2 disc set with the second disc full of extras. There was a section on the history of transformers, and interviews with executive producers Steven Spielberg and Brian Goldner, writers Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci, and director Michael Bay. There were also features on the animation used and the way they worked out where to do scenes. You also get a look at the military equipment seen and used in the film.
This additional information is something you do not want to skip over, because it gives you a much deeper understanding of how much planning and work went into the final production. If you are into cutting edge special effects and head banging action then beg, borrow, rent, or if that fails buy ...
Contains frequent and intense scenes of moderate fantasy violence

Plot
Hailing more from the pulp-melancholic spirit of the 1978-1982 Hulk television series than its 2003 predecessor did, THE INCREDIBLE HULK wordlessly tells the entire gamma ray-afflicted origin story of scientist Bruce Banner's alter-ego within its first two-and-a-half minutes. This sequence makes at least two things clear. First off, the Edward Norton-starring THE INCREDIBLE HULK is not a sequel to or a remake of the 2003 THE HULK, but a reboot complete with an alternate plot, a new dynamic, and a different set of rules. Second, director Louis Leterrier (UNLEASHED, THE TRANSPORTER) intends to deliver an economically paced, tightly wound thriller in which drama and action scenes are not mutually exclusive.

DVD Description
Hailing more from the pulp-melancholic spirit of the 1978-1982 Hulk television series than its 2003 predecessor did, THE INCREDIBLE HULK wordlessly tells the entire gamma ray-afflicted origin story of scientist Bruce Banner's alter-ego within its first two-and-a-half minutes. This credit sequence evokes--albeit with more cinematic weight--the premise-informing quality that might be found before every episode of a cult hit series. This sequence makes at least two things clear. First off, the Edward Norton-starring THE INCREDIBLE HULK is not a sequel to or a remake of the 2003 THE HULK, but a reboot complete with an alternate plot, a new dynamic, and a different set of rules. Second, director Louis Leterrier (UNLEASHED, THE TRANSPORTER) intends to deliver an economically paced, tightly wound thriller in which drama and action scenes are not mutually exclusive. THE INCREDIBLE HULK replaces cerebral family drama with a coping scientist who, at the start of the movie, is in hiding and training his mind-body dichotomy. So much of Banner's plight is effectively conveyed with simple 'days without incident': title cards that inevitably reset. The Hulk's previously poetic weightlessness is rejected in favour of gargantuan physicality akin to seeing huge robots face off in TRANSFORMERS, but with more flesh, muscle, and bone. The angst, of course, isn't gone from this incarnation--not if Norton's intelligently passionate Banner and his tender, forbidden relationship with Dr. Elizabeth Ross (Liv Tyler) have anything to say about it--it's simply that this Hulk always smashes before he ponders. Rounding out THE INCREDIBLE HULK's main players are William Hurt as General Ross and Tim Roth as marine Emil Blonsky, two antagonists in pursuit of the Hulk who, like Banner, are not so much evil as consumed by tragic character flaws.
