Critic Reviews

Grade
|
|
USA Today - Claudia Puig
: What starts out with a sense of quirky fun loses direction and devolves into a mishmash of story lines.

Seattle Post-Intelligencer - Sean Axmaker
: Even by the standards of a maturing superhero genre, this is not a film for kids.

Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
: Bateman doesn't make a false move...

ReelViews - James Berardinelli
: ...shows all the signs of studio interference and never establishes a clear identity or tone.

New York Times - Manohla Dargis
: ...it has a raggedness that speaks honestly to the fundamental human fragility that makes the greatest heroes super.

New York Post - Lou Lumenick
: This movie fails so spectacularly - and on so many levels - that it's like watching a train plummet off a bridge.

Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan
: It's a strange feeling to see the summer's most promising premise self-destruct into something bizarre and unsatisfying...

Hollywood Reporter - Stephen Farber
: Great concept, shaky execution.

filmcritic.com - Brian Chen
: The movie's best as a comedy and worst when it tries to get serious.

Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
: ...director Peter Berg... and cinematographer Tobias Schliessler favor a visual style that can best be described as Serious Focus on the Eyeball.

|
E! Online - Alex Markerson
: ...it's hard to find a clear villain in this piece, and even harder to accept the way Hancock eventually turns around.

|
Chicago Tribune - Matt Pais
: Nice idea--what if a superhero didn't have a secret identity and had to play to the media?--but a medium-sized oops on the execution.
more...
|
B-
|
|
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
: The movie has a lot of laughs, but Smith avoids playing Hancock as a goofball and shapes him as serious, thoughtful and depressed.

Boston Globe - Wesley Morris
: ...weaknesses outweigh strengths.

The movie disappointed me. A great actor like Will Smith gave his worst performance her. | | | | Reply | | |      k_shelat says @ Tuesday - July 08,2008
This is a good movie. Will Smith is the man, who comes out on top again, great comedic timing and great plot twists and in the perfect time. | | | | Reply | | |      crazy4bsb824 says @ Tuesday - July 08,2008
A complete waste of time and money. This is the worst movie. I had a desire to leave the theater after the first 20 mnts. of watching this parody. | | | Jenny replies @ Wednesday - July 09,2008

This is probably the best action comedy movie made after 'Rush Hour'. It is funny how all of the kids loved Hancock, but most parents hated him. | | | | Reply | | |      cobbmarsue says @ Tuesday - July 08,2008
"Hancock" is a fantastic movie all around. The visuals were great. The acting of Will Smith is brilliant. The twists in this movie are very good. The direction of this movie is great. | | | | Reply | | |      khaider says @ Tuesday - July 08,2008
