REVIEWS FOR HULK
A turgid, CGI-Frankenstein reject
Aug 26, 2009
The spectacular special effects and Lee’s use of split screens provide some relief in a nonetheless tedious tale in which Nick Nolte (looking much like his recent mug shot) provides several unintentional laughs as Banner’s father.
Aug 7, 2008
The film almost matches the inner conflict of its titular character, intermittently bogged down even as it soars to occasionally transcendent heights.
Jun 13, 2008
Lee and Schamus try on film genres like The Silence of the Lambs' Buffalo Bill tries on human skin.
Jun 12, 2008
The only Ang Lee film where he shows even a modicum of originality in his direction or any real personality or interesting visual flair.
Jan 16, 2008
What a strange and fascinating contraption Hulk is.
Sep 24, 2007
The way Lee orchestrates the film is closer to painting than directing. At times, it feels as though a graphic novel is being laid out on screen.
Jul 14, 2007
[An] enjoyable summer behemoth.
Apr 18, 2007
Top CriticA talented director wasted on a poorly plotted and weakly acted film. Not even the visual effects are salvagable
Aug 8, 2006
Nice as it would be to report that Ang and his co-writer/producer James Schamus had regenerated the summer blockbuster, we gotta poop the party.
Jun 24, 2006
The Hulk, like its lead character, is just too big.

It still looks and feels like a superhero movie, even if it didn’t turn out exactly the way we wanted it to.
Jul 5, 2005
Audiences expecting to turn off their brains and sit back for another blast of mere eye candy may stagger out of this 138-minute epic wondering what hit them.
Jan 15, 2005
I cannot recall seeing a tank being lobbed at a copter with such finesse.
Oct 14, 2004
Hulk se distingue de la masse par son caractère humain et par les thèmes qu’il aborde.
Oct 7, 2004
Rent it, fast forward through the first forty minutes, and enjoy the rest. Well, except the last ten minutes... okay, maybe give it a miss.
Mar 4, 2004
No review available.
Jan 24, 2004
Wastes time and squanders audience sympathy with too much humorless exposition.
