June 24th, 2003This last Sunday, Lisa & I went to see “The Hulk.”
I have mixed feelings about this movie. The director (Ang Lee) wanted the characters to be fully fleshed out, 3-Dimensional, and complex. So, the first 2/3 of the movie moves slowly with lots of dialog, introspection, flashbacks, etc. The people who were hoping for smash-em-up action find all this boring. The second half of the movie includes the combat and this big chase with the USAF firing rockets and such at a bunny-hopping Hulk. The people who were really getting into the characterization and the plot find the end cartoonish and boring! This really feels like it will piss-off both groups.
I hope the movie does well, it means more comic-2-movie adaptations … But, I’m not going to rush out and see this one again.
