HANCOCK (WILL SMITH, JASON BATEMAN;2008)


WELL IT'S BEEN SIX MONTHS. TIME FOR WILL SMITH TO COLLECT ANOTHER 50 MILLION DOLLARS. THIS MOVIE WOULD'VE CARRIED MUCH MORE WEIGHT HAD IT CAST MY FIRST PICK FOR HANCOCK, RUTGER HAUER, OR AS HE WAS KNOWN IN THE 80'S: "GERMAN STEELE ." NOT ONLY WAS RUTGER HAUER THE MOST PROLIFIC ACTOR OF THE 20TH CENTURY HE'S ALSO FLUENT IN LATIN, WHICH IS IRRELEVANT....BUT SHOULD IT BE? UNFORTUNATELY WHEN I PITCHED RUTGER HAUER TO SONY PICTURES I ACCIDENTALLY PRESENTED CLIPS FROM SPLIT SECOND (1992) AS OPPOSED TO HIS ALMOST OSCAR NOMINATED PERFORMANCE IN BLIND FURY. IN CASE YOU FOOLISHLY FORGOT, BLIND FURY WAS THE 1989 CLASSIC IN WHICH HAUER PLAYED A BLIND SAMURAI EXPRESSING EXTRAORDINARY EMOTIONAL INSIGHT. I BELIEVE THE TAG LINE FOR BLIND FURY WAS: IF JUSTICE IS BLIND YOU BETTER PRAY HE'S NOT YOUR JUDGE. I JUST SHED A TEAR. ANYWAY, THE NET WORTH OF A SMALL COUNTRY LATER, WE GOT WILL SMITH. IT'S CHEAPER TO ACQUIRE SNUFF PORN THAN THIS GUY. IN HANCOCK, SMITH PLAYS AN AIRBORNE ALCOHOLIC SUPERHERO WHO'S DOESN'T HIDE HIS IDENTITY. IF THERE'S ONE THING MORE DANGEROUS THAN DRIVING DRUNK IT'S FLYING DRUNK (SEE J.F.K. JR.). AFTER COSTING L.A. MILLIONS IN DAMAGES, A GRATEFUL TOP P.R. EXEC, WHOSE LIFE HANCOCK SAVED, DECIDES TO HELP HIM CHANGE HIS IMAGE. HOWEVER, JUST WHEN THE PUBLIC BEGINS TO LOVE HANCOCK A PLOT TWIST FUCKS EVERYTHING UP AGAIN. I MIGHT ADD THE PLOT TWIST IS ABSURD. IF YOU HAVE AN I.Q. BELOW 95 YOU'LL PROBABLY SEE THIS TWICE. IF YOU'RE A FUNCTIONING MEMBER OF SOCIETY ONE VIEWING SHOULD BE MORE THAN ENOUGH.

Timeless huh, some one asks a simple question and you expect anyone to take you seriously when you can't get down off your crate to answer the mans question, sad really. Will Smith did an awsome job acting, why is it always the actors fault, he played his part .. and played it well what make a movie is the editors, director, as well, as writers if the story is crappy to begin with it's not the actors fault but in this case i think the movie played out and evolved spectacularly... venting out jealousy over an actor thats suceeding in life while you live a life vicariously through their accomplisments on film and blogging about it . really just says to me you and your "operation" are no more than the dramatics of a low rate unappreciative drama school drop out with WAY too much time on their hands. :D but then again we are all entitled to our own opinions.. and I'm sure you think mine like your asscrack.. stinks :D thank you have a nice day
