The Hulk Review |
by Michael Redman (Rating: 3.5/5) |
Certain religious sects and philosophers preach about the dark side of
individuals that must be kept down. It's so powerful that punishments from
the gods are threatened to keep people in line. Give in to the monster and
sin and you go to hell or are...more |

What is it with us, ladies? What makes us believe the love of a good woman can
fix a bad boy? Is it our innate nature to nurture? To love even the unlovable?
Or is it our desire to walk on the wild side, to tame the beast? Whatever the
psychology, Betty...more |

In a time when many comic books are getting a big-screen treatment, "Hulk"
stands out like a sore thumb. It's not exciting like "Spider-Man," it's not
as thoughtful as "X-Men," it's not even as entertaining as the average
"Daredevil" was. It has a...more |

Now that comic-book movies are a hot property again, it was a matter of time

So the big green guy has finally arrived. Don't expect a story
similar to the cartoon and comic books, however, because the newest
film from director Ang Lee (The Ice Storm, Crouching Tiger Hidden
Dragon) takes a decidedly different and more tragic...more |

Its dazzling opening credits might lead you to believe you're in for
something truly life-altering, but by the time Hulk's other 135 minutes wind
down, you'll probably be wondering what all the buzz was about. While Ang
Lee's adaptation of the 1962 Stan...more |

Eclectic helmer Ang Lee has shown a versatility and talent that makes me
think that there is nothing that this man can't do behind the camera.
His early family-oriented Taiwan films like "The Wedding Banquet" and
"Eat Drink Man Woman" were followed by...more |

If you have been listening to talk about Ang Lee's HULK, you have heard
comparisons to other stories: Beauty and the Beast, King Kong, Dr. Jekyll
and Mr. Hyde, the entire Frankenstein sub-genre. Of course The Hulk is a

by Steve Rhodes (Rating: 2/4) |
Save your popcorn money, kids. THE HULK is no SPIDER-MAN. Whereas Sam Raimi's
SPIDER-MAN was lively and fun, Ang Lee's THE HULK is slow and ponderous. A
think piece more than an action film, it is a pretentious picture that takes
itself way too...more |
