Hancock

Parents just don't understandI've got to be honest, I just don't get the critical disdain for this movie (only 36% on Rotten Tomatoes??).

For what it's worth, I really liked it. I can't get too far into why without offering some spoilers. But you know how some movies give away everything in the trailer? Not this one. Kudos to the studio, because I believe there was not a single scene from the second half of the movie in the previews, when things take a left turn and we find out what the movie is really about.

I won't oversell this...I wish the script were about 10% better, and the climax a bit better filmed. But if you like superhero movies, I think you're going to like this one. Plus, you get to see the Bond trailer on the big screen.

As to the critics? Maybe they were expecting this:

Watch my Big Willie style, bitches!
