Review The Incredible Hulk
Sorry, did I type that out loud? Disregard… At the risk of sounding like Brian MacNamee, The Incredible Hulk is what it is. I don’t know if and/or why people were expecting a crossbreed of Citizen Kane and Enter The Dragon, but let me simplify it for you as best I can; the main character of this film is a giant-green-grunting piece of CGI. The most important scenes within the allotted 114 minutes have this 3G-C jumping and running into things from different angles. If you didn’t know that going in, well you just didn’t do your homework. I did mine along with this here fair evaluation. I thought The Incredible Hulk worked above all else because director Louis Leterrier isn’t really Ang Lee in disguise. Lou dogg didn’t make this a dark artsy dialogue-driven extravaganza like Ang tried to with that ’03 Snorlax (a Pokemon…mad?) of a movie. And don’t give me ticket sales as an excuse to say that movie was better. It was hot as fuck last weekend and gas is $20 for half a gallon. The usual meatheads that go to see these types of movies used a quarter of that gas to grill for dad instead. Anyway, whereas the Brokeback Hulk failed with too much talk and faggotry, this one gave you more of what you came to see; them smashes. An early chase scene through the rooftops and streets of Brazil gives way to the first of three rounds between mean green and Tim Roth, who later turns into an abomination…literally. (have fun with it nerds). The action sequences are very good-borderline great. In the most memorable showdown of the lot, Roth gets hit with the most dominant drop kick I’ve seen since Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson were both sober. Ed Norton as Bruce Banner played the same paranoid character he played in Fight Club, but with a much tougher alter ego. And Liv Tyler’s full lips simping it up for her man even at the expense of her father’s high ranking mustache was just fine by me. It was no Tony Stark and Pepper chemistry between Brucey B & Betty, but I don’t care; all I care about is the imminent chemistry between Downey Jr., Norton, Samuel L. and the rest of Them Avengers.

Wow, Tim Roth has gotten old as fuck since Gridlock’d.
