   (imdb rating: 6.9/10)


Plot: A hard-living superhero who has fallen out of favor with the public enters into a questionable relationship with the wife of the public relations professional who's trying to repair his image.

Sometimes trailers don't lie. Hancock ended a 4-year streak of supremely good movies for Will Smith (though his box office cachet remains undeterred). This was far and away one of the biggest disappointments of the year. I kept hoping something really cool would happen having haphazardly guessed the big twist of the movie

I shoulda gone with the IMDB rating on this one, even the Ebert and Roeper split on it. My bad my bad

Maybe it can be blamed on director Peter Berg, even beauty Charlize Theron could not salvage this from being a movie closer to My Ex-Supergirlfriend than Iron Man

A tear


Fun fact: Bateman starred in Berg's movie The Kingdom last year
