Having seen the first Hulk, I realized that up was the only way the grade could go with this one. I was very surprised at the outcome. Ed Norton would have made Bill Bixby himself weep at the passionate, desperate portrayal of Bruce Banner. The special effects were outstanding, from the jungles of Brazil to the Big City battle ground. This was a winner. The only possible drawback it is so realistic is that younger kids might be too frightened at it. I did see some kiddies hiding their eyes while I was at the theater.
