Review: Smith's surly superhero consistently entertaining
"Hancock," starring Will Smith, is an awesome movie about a superhero who has fallen from glory.
Hancock (Will Smith) used to be loved by all. But after trashing the town when saving people - while he was drunk - everyone turns against him. CNN's Nancy Grace, who makes a cameo in the movie, even wants him in jail.
One day, he saves the life of Ray, a public relations consultant (Jason Bateman, "Juno"), who in return decides to help Hancock change his image so that the community will like him again. This is something that Ray's wife Mary (Charlize Theron, "Aeon Flux"), who has her own secrets, doesn't think is a good idea; in her opinion, Hancock is a lost cause.

Report AbuseLighten up a bit Richwood - we don't expect a high school student to deliver like George Will - he gave his best effort and I think he did a good job. We all have a long way to go when we're still in high school and Nicholas gets a thumbs up from me. I would see the movie given a chance, and I'm still learning every day at age 74.
