One thing i wish from when i saw this film is knowing that it was a reboot and not a sequel. because otherwise i found a lot of the beginning of the film extremely confusing. but when that was cleared, i like the story a little better.
Plot: This time, Hulk is created when General Ross assigns Bruce Banner to work on making Super-soldiers in the extent of making soldiers immune to gamma radiation. The experiment fails and turns Bruce into the Hulk and so he becomes a fugitive. For a while, Bruce manages to stay in hiding until the military manages to find him when a drop of blood from a cut gets inside a drink from the factory he works at in Rio and is discovered when a civilian (obviously played by good ol' Stan Lee) purchased the particular bottle and had a little kick to it when he drank it and word got out. when the military comes to Rio, Bruce escapes and eventually goes run away with his former girlfriend Betty Ross, the General's daughter. and meanwhile General Ross assigns a soldier named Emil Blonsky to try out on another super soldier serum in attempt to make him similar to the Hulk in attempt to stop it.
While this is not the greatest superhero movie, it's much more enjoyable than the first Hulk movie. It has a better aim to the general story of the comic with it being the military against the Hulk AND the military trying to make a better version of Hulk in attempt to take him down. Plus we have there being an actual villain that's in someway similar to the hero and the villain was cool and had a simple story in a way, which is something that i think they failed entirely at doing when it came to the first Hulk. plus Hulk is using some of his known abilities such as his clap or him saying "Hulk Smash!" All of which made the movie much more enjoyable.
Acting/Characters:
Edward Norton/ Bruce Banner-Hulk:He wasn't good but he wasn't great. He didn't really seem to try to be much primarily after he escaped from the Military at Rio.
Tim Roth/Emil Blonsky-Abomination: i'd say Roth was probably had the most facial expression in the whole cast.
William Hurt/General "Thunderbolt" Ross: i didn't really try to care about Hurt's performance. cause really he was just what he was suppose to be.
Liv Tyler/Betty Ross: I thought she was the weakest of the main cast. cause really while there was some things different, she was really just being Arwen all over again. and i find that pretty dumb.
the only thing else to say about the cast was the fact that in the end, Robert Downey Jr. made a cameo as Tony Stark. that was nice.
Effects: they were alright. nuthun much but theyw ere what they needed to be with the particular story like The Incredible Hulk.
Editing: it was nice. and MUCH, much better than the first Hulk. really no matter what, it was good just on the fact that it wasn't anything like the editing in the last film.
and that is my review for The Incredible Hulk. not too much but it's more fun and tells the story better.
