I went to see this movie with my children and I'm happy to say that we all really enjoyed the movie. I hope the movie makers continue with this series.
The acting, make-up, and special effects have improved with each movie. I agree with one of the other reviewers that the actors appear to be more comfortable in their rolls. After reading the books, I knew what to expect. I enjoy the way it was converted into a movie. I can't wait for Breaking Dawn.
The movie was awesome! It had a lot of action. It did a good job of following the book, but you didn't have to read the book to follow the movie. I thought it was epic. Can't wait to see it again and I'll be first in line to buy the DVD.
I loved Twilight and was concerned when they changed directors. My concern was unwarranted. As much as I loved Twilight, I felt that New Moon was better. Yes, they changed some things but in order to get as much as they could of the book into the movie, that was necessary. I can't wait for Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, not to mention the DVD's.
My family and I really enjoyed Hancock. I thought it was good summer fun. I also felt that the middle of the movie explained why he was somewhat displaced at the beginning. Hancock delivers summer fun and life lessons.
I thought that the movie was true to the period (1957) and the Indiana Jones theme. The effects were good. The story was funny. There was plenty of action. It had all of the things you go to the movies for. You can't even get realism in the news now days, why would you expect it in the movies?
My husband and boys loved the movie so much they can't wait to see it again. Downey and the rest of the cast were perfect. It was a thrill ride from beginning to end.
