Hancock: Directed by Peter Berg. With Will Smith, Charlize Theron, Jason Bateman, Jae Head. Hancock is a superhero whose ill-considered behavior regularly causes damage in the millions. He changes when the person he saves helps him improve his public image.

“Hancock was a pretty interesting as well as entertaining movie. It definitely wasnu0026#39;t your typical superhero movie; and it wasnu0026#39;t originally a DC or Marvel comic. Itu0026#39;s more about what would happen if someone with superheroes was around in modern times, and that is what makes it interesting. If thereu0026#39;s some property damage done while catching criminals, people will be angry; if a vigilante has a bad attitude, people will be angry. I suppose Batman explores some of that not being liked by the public, as well as the bad attitude and personal trauma of the hero, but I found Hancock to be quite original in its handling of these issues. I liked the media attention and the use of sunglasses as a u0026quot;masku0026quot; of sorts. I really liked how Hancock progresses as a character, and I liked the other characters as well. Usually little kids in movies annoy me, but the son of the supporting character was pretty cute and endearing. This isnu0026#39;t really a hero movie where there is a superhero and a super villain; I think itu0026#39;s more about what it means to be a human and relate to other people, to do good things and the desire to be accepted. I think the best part of Hancock is that itu0026#39;s about a superhuman who is just very human. It was a lot of fun.”
