MOVIE REVIEW: HANCOCK

MOVIE REVIEW: HANCOCK

Will Smith's most recent blockbuster, Hancock, which had generated a lot of hype, fell short of expectations with poor reviews and disappointing box office revenues. While I wasn't as greatly entertained by this movie as I was with the likes of Independence day, I Robot, Hitch and Pursuit of Happiness, I still feel it was worth the price of admission. One problem I had was that this movie just wasn't as funny as many of Smith's action comedies have been in the past. There were too few laugh-out-loud jokes to be a successful comedy but was also too silly to be genuine dramatic or action flick. While I doubt very few people would ever put this on there top five movies list (even top five Will Smith Movies) I still feel that this movie is worth a rental when it comes out on November 25, 2008.
