Hancock

People's expectations are WAYY too high. Hancock gets 3 out of 4 stars in the newspaper, but thre review says it didn't match expectations. Well -- ya gave it 3/4, that's pretty good...

Dudes in the bathroom after the movie too. Always the best indicator of whether a movie did the job or not, saying "it was good but I expected more."

That word's invention is the death of civilization. BUT.

You just said the movie was good brother!!!! Why do you have to qualify, AND, what the hell were you expecting? It had a ridiculous amount of cool CGI, incredibly funny scenes, violence, and a scene that made you feel, for five seconds, like you knew what it might be like to wake up next to to Charlize Theron.

$9.00 is making people expect The Godfather every time out. Hancock was good. It entertained the hell out of me for 2 hours, it made me laugh out loud, had me say "wow" at some of the effects, and I walked out feeling justified for choosing that flick over a couple of other ones (see Baby's Mama).

It's definitely the kind of movie that you need to see in the theaters, so go see it, it's entertaining, Will Smith is the man, Charlize Theron is the perfect female specimen, and you'll laugh. It won't change your world, but it beats the hell out of Adam Sandler character-acting.
