Summary: above average viewing experience...could've been alot better
Review: Question,did your dvd come with an insert of anykind?Mine did not,and that blows bigtime in my book for such a big "hollywood" movie.This is the first dvd I have gotten that didn't have a d@mn insert.

Oh yeah, the movie isn't as bad as most people say.Disappointment tends to cloud ones judgement of what they ARE seeing not what they had hoped to see.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing Movie! Great Extras!
Review: The Hulk stands out as one of the finest movies based on a superhero ever. The special effects are top notch, and the movie captures the feel of the early Hulk comics perfectly. Eric Bana captures the emotionally detached Bruce Banner perfectly, and Sam Elliot pulls in a fine performance as General Thunderbolt Ross. The Hulk effects are amazing. ILM took a twelve foot man and made him seem real, all with CGI. Yes, the character looks unreal, most 12 foot tall green men would.
The extras help sell this DVD. The behind the scenes features are hilarious, especially watching Ang Lee himself act out the Hulk scenes in a motion capture suit. Comic enthusiasts will also enjoy a scene-for-scene comic version of the Hulk's transformation. All in all, this movie is well worth purchasing.

Rating: 1 stars

Summary: You're Better off Buying the old TV episodes!
Review: What could have been a great movie, slogs through the first hour at an excruciatingly slow pace. Very weird directing where the screen splits into four different scenes, does more harm than good. Bruce Banner, a child of parents that lived in a military base that tested nuclear devices like Los Alamos, grows up to be a scientist too. When he is exposed to a dose of gamma radiation, the genetically mutated cells in his body go crazy and he is transformed into the Hulk using Shrek-like animation techniques.

The Hulk in this film looks and moves just like the Hulk in the comic book as opposed to the Lou Ferrigno (he makes a cameo as a guard at the beginning of the film) Hulk of the 80's. He battles gamma-mutated dogs, the military and his gamma-mutated father (played in an incredibly boring fashion by Nick Nolte).

Some of the special effects of the film are great while others look real cheap (the Hulk has a battle in the desert with airplanes that look like they came off a carnival ride instead of like real fighter jets).

Sam Elliott is great as General Thunderbolt Ross. The rest of the actors, especially the actor who plays Banner, need to go to acting school to learn how to put some emotion in their roles.

Don't spend your money on this one. Wait to watch it on free tv!

Summary: So much promise- so little good
Review: Great science- the labs at Berkeley actually looked real! The DNA gels run are real. The equipment real. The science is even sound.
The movie however does not deliver- from the time we first see the CG Hulk all credibility is lost and the movie goes down the toilet. I hated Nick Nolte- he seems to be playing the drunken bum he looks like in his illustrious mug shot from his latest DUI.
Jennifer Connelly stands around looking vacant as the extent of her acting in this film. The HULK himself- Bruce is as expressionless as Ben Affleck feigning anything. PASS ON THIS ONE unless you buy the disks only for the special features which include some cool background material on the comic book iteself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hulk is the best giant green monster movie ever
Review: There are so many brilliant things in this movie. Ang Lee's perfect direction completely encompassed the genre. The split screen effects are brilliantly done, and never tedious. The performances are all on target. The visual effects are many, and, in my opinion, excellent. And I have to give a nod to the music and scenery. I've not seen monument Valley so beutifully presented since The Searchers, a Western. And this is (in a sense) a western.

This comic book movie is by far superior then many others. The effects are bigger and more abundnt, the script, is smarter, and the small touches (such as the split screen effects) add up to make one pretty good movie, and one very good action movie.

It is, overall very excellent. I believe you'll enjoy it; there's no reason not to. It's great great fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good, misundersood movie
Review: I thought this movie was great. I think the reason that a lot of people did not like this movie is because they were expecting it to be more of an action/adventure movie. It is however, a drama about a man learning about his long-forgotten past and how he faces it. I especially liked Nick Nolte's performance as his once caring-turned insane father. The way they show scenes like a comic book was a nice touch too. The dog fighting scene was great, and Eric Bana does excellent as Bruce. I guess the decision of whether you would like this movie or not, however is mostly up to you

Summary: zzzZZZZzzzzzZZZZZzzzzzZZZZZ
Review: When this movie was still playing in theaters I really wanted to go and see it, yet most everyone that I knew that had already seen it insisted that I avoid it at all cost. I finally, watched it on DVD and I swear the movie put me flat out to sleep!!! I have heard that Jennifer Connelly wanted to back out of it because it was the next film that she did after her "A Beautiful Mind" award but she was under contract - - - who knows? But one thing most of us realize about this movie is . . it really stinks!!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Biggest disappointment since Jar Jar Binks
Review: Like most parents I enjoy Saturday morning cartoons with my kid. It's fun to watch them discover Warner Brothers Looney Tunes and Superheroes for the first time. On the 'Amazing SpiderMan and Friends' show she really got into great characters like Iron Man, The Thing, The Red Skull, Venom, and of course, The Incredible Hulk. Imagine her excitement (she's 5) when she learned that the Hulk was going to be made into a movie!

I took her to the theater and I was looking forward to it myself. I was more of an X-Men and Iron Man type of guy myself, but I grew up watching the Incredible Hulk show on Friday night (it came on right after Sha na na).

Half an hour into the movie, she starts fidgeting, by the first hour she was asleep. I woke her up for the ending, but she wasn't amused. "Daddy that Hulk is weird looking". She said it loud enough to get a couple of chuckles from those around us. Apparantly I should have been watching the people around me instead of the movie for entertainment. The kids were all asleep (it was a 7:30 show), the adults were bored, and the story was just bland. I describe this movie as to driving back and forth over a speed bump.

When a superhero movie as popular as the Hulk puts an entire audience of kids into a slumber, something is wrong. The only saving grace in this film was the cameo salute to Lou Ferrigno, the 'real' Hulk.
