Ok here it it kids:

Director Ang Lee strikes gold with the latest portrayal of a Marvel Comic to hit the big screen in the ME HULK, ME SMASHES genre, and Hulk fans sure will NOT be disappointed as I was just amazed at the way The Big Green Thing comes across the silver screen.

Eric Bana (Black Hawk Down) plays aclaimed scientist Dr. Bruce Banner, as you remember from the TV show, his inner demons and a catastropic experiment turn him into the big green monster, The Hulk.

ILM, Industrial Light and Magic does a super job transforming Bana into the monster, that is him in the green glob and not the CGI Hulk we have been seeing. Incredible stuff.

Jennifer Connelly (A Beautiful Mind and Darkman) plays Dr. Betty Ross, Banner's love interest who helps transforms The Hulk.

I think Jennifer Connelly has great chemistry with whomever she works with and Director Lee puts that chemistry to good use.

The cast is great and should be highly seen.

The Plot is developed into two different sections both of whom works, as Sam Elliot who plays the commander of a top secret military base tries to capture the hulk to study, and the second subplot, the main focus of this movie, is The Hulk facing off against the 3 Superdogs *sighs* convicts, thats what I call em. transformed through the same experiment.

The action is fast and furious, no pun to the movie, but I think Ang Lee hits a home run with this film.

The Hulk is yet to be rated, and hits theatres June 20, 2003.

My rating: 9 out of 10.

added note to Pho--This and X2 actually does deserve what I rated it..I haven't reviewed every movie I have seen on here..But there have been stinkers.

fair nuff, but if i hate this film (i have a feelin i wont like it) then u owe me $8. plus tax

im not a fan of 90% of comic conversions, as most people dont know how to do it. Sam Raimi and Tim Burton are the exceptions. Daredevil proved me very right, as i told everyone for oh so long how bad that movie would be... but did they listen.....

So I run into him a week later in the mall and he’s buying another cat and I says to ‘em "Jesus Walt, what are you doing? You know your just gonna get this cat stuck up your ass too, why don’t you knock it off?" And he says to me "Brodie, how the hell else am I supposed to get the gerbil out?" My cousin was a weird guy....

Yep...I was getting impatient with all those previews.
Thing that's strange is, around here in MD/DC, none of the people, let's say, under 18 actually have an interest in this movie. They all think it looks dull, that's what's been going around. I think their full of shit though, as Ang Lee is awesome!

Does anyone know if the movie is going to be based more on the comic book or on the tv series?? Or did Ang decide to make up his own version on how banner became the hulk????

In the Original comic book version During a gamma bomb testing a teenager named Rick Jones had breached security and entered the restricted test area, Banner threw him into a protective trench. Before Banner could get himself to safety, the gamma-bomb detonated.

And in the tv version Banner gets intrigued by how people seemed to get stronger during stressful situation and hooks himself up to some machine which gives him the ability to turn into hulk.

It sounds like the Angster lean mored toward the comic book angle (thank god)

Thanks for the info horizonstar

In MovieGod's review he says:

did i blink and miss the section with the 3 Superconvicts? I saw the movie and did not see any such thing.

3 Superconvicts

Thats superman 2 or something

Im impressed with what Ang Lee did with the Hulk. Whoever did the Daredevil movie had a hundred times more material to work with and screwed it up.

The Hulk F'ing Rules
