you don't hit guillermo in the belly, when he's the Hulk

Ang Lee Take on the Hulk had drama, action, than more Drama.
Hit big in the box office, but had bad review by the fan. Like all marvel film had cameo appearance of stan "the man"Lee, to the 70's tv version Lou Ferrigno, But now he's the voice of the green monster. Remade under the banner of the Marvel studio, did they successive it? Here's my review:

Bruce Banner (Edward Norton)was re own scientist speciality on gamma radiation, when lab accident change him from a man to sciences to a man on the run, hiding from the military under the command of general Thunderbolt Ross(William Hurt), hes been chase from all over America. In the desperate moment Bruce try to find a cure, before he become property of the goverment. So a now son to be retire soldier by the last name of Blonsky, get he chance to capture him, The only person that could help Banner Is anonymous contact from he laptop, calling himself Mr. Blue, reuniting to her lost love and daughter of he's arch nemesis General Ross Dr.Elizabeth Ross (Liv Tyler). So now is matter of time before the good doctor become green, but everything could change when Blonsky(Tim Roth) become obsessive for what they gave him , becoming into something more menacing than the emerald beast. Now the destruction will come to NY, where last stand of both beast will come to a final blow. Hulk mash.

Edward Norton performance didn't convince me not that much, as the desperate scientist, but when it come to getting angry that's where he shine more. Liv Tyler acting was nice but more of a slow process, that really need to be seen in a soap opera. As for William Hurt wasn't that rought as the general but still convince. But the man that really give the up on he's role is Tim Roth he is quentified for every role he is in. He can make anybody see how a real man can take a hit to a tree.

Now for the action when it come to the hulk, This time he didn't look like a cg ninja turtle, with the new grey green tone, he look more menacing, and more fear. The first confrontation that he have was nice, by destroying everything without noticing that harm he was doing around, from the the ripping of a hummer to the destruction, to the kick ass fight he have with Blonsky, that could only be compare to the real fight he had in the ultimate comic against Captain America. The Last crem go to the confrontation with against The abomnation, that a fight like that cannot by seen in a WWE match, from the pounding he does with the used of some car pieces gloves, to the excitement buy hanging in the helicopter, to the most memorable scene in the movie the saying of Hulk Smash. There's nothing good, to the perfection they did with the direction of Louis Leterrier, what was the Ang Lee was missing Ang Lee version :comedy.

Some chase shots were well done, reminisce to the bourne film, but when it come to the cg shot were all dark, except to the army, were the fire work get more fire, but when it come to the abomination fight, they when all cloverfield to it. And best of all there were people flying which was important from a monster film.

From the story view, i like s they took some element taken from the comic, from the relationship of Banner and Mr.Blue, that come from Mr. 100 bullet Himself Brian Azzarrello.To the mentioning of the super soldier serum, can anyone say Captain America, the style of the film have basing it more on the 70's tv series, it doesn't feel like a fugitive , or a bourne flick. The only letdown that had ,was more fighting with the abomination cause really i saw the destruction, and the hurting. But it needed some building falling, and some car throwing, the same mayhem that godzilla do, when he's period hit.

So with the feud that marvel had with Norton, on what version was gonna make the cut, there's no wrong do it. The movie accomplish on all level, then its predecessor. It doesn't compare to the Iron Man film, but the excitement can be seen in green. I don't know what strategy marvel have, by the look of it, they are heading to a new horizon when it come making a real comic movie.

The movie was good, not great, but shows its potential when it come by unknown french director that knows it craft, from making Unleash n Transpotter2, Dc better take note when it come to directing, and acting. And finally Stan Lee he always wanted to be the hulk, well didn't see it, but betcha, he was ready set the place on fire, like he did in the universal lot.

Next stop the Happening.
