Hancock


The title helped a lot in my decision to see this film. The suggestion is so obvious so I assume that a lot of people decided to see the movie just because of the title.
Once you pass the shock that none of the two words are combined in an actual scene and that no hand touches the, well you know, then you can stat to enjoy this comedy.
Will Smith plays a rude, drunk super hero that usually screws up any rescue situation he is involved in. This is until he saves a PR specialist, and we all now how those guy work. The PR guy turns him into a superhero the world needs by changing some small things about him. Hancock stars say " Good job to the police officers", spends some time in jail...and that's about it. The public begins to change the way it sees Hancock.
The big twist is the fact that the wife of the PR guy is Hancock wife and a superhero as well. But, them being together makes them human and that is really bad, apparently. The thing is that in their entire life, around 2000 years, people tried to kill them, so this explains why there are apart.
The movie is not amazing, but it is not a waste of time either.
