Though it begins with promise, Hancock suffers from a flimsy narrative and poor execution.

It becomes an entirely different film, one not really premised on the bad-superhero comedy idea, and the film is then oddly without a sense of humour, and its vague interest in satire vanishes completely. Oct 18, 2008 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

The dynamic between the sullen Smith and sincere Bateman may be the best thing in the Peter Berg's movie, but it's a tough call because the whole popcorn fest is flat-out fantastic. Jul 4, 2008 | Rating: A | Full Review…

As popcorn movies go, this is fleet, funny, and even thoughtful: its central question, nicely underplayed by director Peter Berg, is why power and altruism never seem to intersect. Jul 3, 2008 | Full Review…

I wanted to like Hancock, especially after its rather enjoyable beginning, but ultimately the film is nothing more than a disappointing case of what-could-have-been. Oct 28, 2019 | Rating: C | Full Review…

Shots suddenly angled from the upper-right-hand-corner kitchen cupboard for no discernible reason. Tone shifts from "Ha-ha-ha, that Jason Bateman sure is amusing," to "Oh, my God, can anyone stop the bleeding?!?" Oct 25, 2018 | Full Review…

[At first] Hancock is great fun, quirky and hilarious... Smith especially proves every minute why he's become the best in Hollywood. Then the movie takes an odd turn and goes into a whole other story, with different -- and deeper, I guess -- meanings. Aug 25, 2018 | Full Review…
