Excellent but underrated film
Tyreece Hulme
One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Sabah Hensley
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Leoni Haney
Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

The Incredible Hulk was a bad movie which had an ok story with bad dialogue and an ok villain. The beginning was good with the reenactment of when Bruce became the Hulk, but I feel I could've been better and longer, which would've made it a little better. Bruce was a bland character, his love interest was bland, her love interest was bland, Abomination was bland, etc. basically, everybody was pretty bland. You barely even see the hulk until the second half of the movie, and his first and second action scene wasn't very good, but the fight with Abomination was actually good. But really besides that, the movie isn't very good and it feels is if it is very stretched out. Just not a good movie.

I mean I love the original actor, but Not as hulk. This movie was just very cheap and the character didn't fit him at all. I don't recommend, there plenty good other marvel movies out there

The Edward Norton version of The Incredible Hulk is a lost nugget in the MCU. As a stand-alone film, it does more to connect the universe than any Avengers film when you consider all the references to the Avengers, yet it's one of the more forgettable films in the MCU. And it's not because it's a bad film-because it's not. It's because this isn't the Hulk that Mark Ruffalo embodied and turned into the fun-loving brute with anger management problems that we've all come to love. This is The Incredible Hulk as envisioned by a producer at DC, not Marvel-dark, brooding, yet competently executed. It's entertaining, just not memorable.The film starts in South America, with Banner in hiding, mastering breathing techniques from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fighters and working at a bottle factory. He works with a band of scummy warehouse workers who sexually harass their co-workers and taunt him. Of course, they're just props for the Hulk to justifiably smash in between social messaging a scientist who is supposed to help him find a cure. Of course, Banner can't take a leak without the government tracking his scent, and the mad dog sent to track him is Emil Blonsky (Tim Roth), an angry Black-Ops guy with age insecurities. Luckily, the government just happens to have some of that handy Captain America super-soldier serum to give him, and unlike Rogers, the serum amplifies Blonsky's worst attributes. When Blonsky attempts to go one-on-one with the green one, and it ends with nearly catastrophic results for Blonsky. So note to Cap, don't fight don't Hulk. Leave that to Thor. Liv Tyler stars as Banner's estranged lover, Betty Ross, the daughter of the stone-faced general Admiral Ross, that's hunting the Hulk. She's completely wasted as a whispery and dotting ex who seems to serve the male gaze and not explore Liv's talents as an actress.The film boasts some thrilling action sequences, so it has that going for it. The first battle between the military and the Hulk is fast, hard-hitting and badass. It's a huge improvement over the Ang Lee version that lulled audiences to sleep with psychedelic colors, mutant dogs, and real-life comic book frames that played out simultaneously to confuse everyone. No, this film doesn't make that mistake; it makes new mistakes. Instead of building off of Blonsky as a human super soldier threat, they decide the only way he can battle the Hulk, is as a Hulk, or as comic book fans know him-Abomination. I wouldn't have a problem with that if the creation of Abomination happened earlier and presented an increasingly difficult challenge for the Hulk. At no point do you ever feel like the Hulk might lose? Abomination is literally a throw-away character that even Marvel chooses to forget about when it comes to the MCU. Toss in the dark and muddy tone of the film, and you have yourself just a run of the mill smash 'em up film in New York. But if that's what you came for, then this is a smashing good time.

Movie Review: "The Incredible Hulk" (2008)Surprisingly effective in its reception, this mega-blast of a "Marvel-Comic-Adaptation" directed by Hollywood first-timer, yet immensely action-cinema approved director Louis Leterrier, who handles an armada of technical as digitally-enhanced imagery well in favors for "Universal Pictures" given there last stand towards a "Marvel Universe Movie"; here emboddied by fascinated, but not particularly loved character of Bruce Banner, portrayed with professionalism, yet lack of motivation by nevertheless capable drama-actor Edward Norton, when the title-given figure appears three times in a shut-tight 105-Minute-Cut to entertain without subconsciously impress as the 2003 version by director Ang Lee could due to solid father-son conflictual subtext matter.Overly the screenplay by Zak Penn, who gathers skillfully exciting ingredients from late 1960s comic artist Jack Kirby (1917-1994) and co-writer / editor-in-chief Stan Lee, to deliver enough punch with nemesis character Emil Blonsky, performed by high-scale engaged actor Tim Roth; eventually making space for the show-stealing "Hulk" contender "The Abomination" towards the already legendary "Broadway Brawl" between the two precisely-animated CGI-hardcore characters as I wished for an R-rated version for "The Incredible Hulk", which to this day only "Blade" (1998) also produced by Avi Arad and "The Punisher" (2004) in close pursuit by executive producer Kevin Feige had been able to manage.Neverthless this event movie of Summer 2008 has great moments with superb supports as Liv Tyler as Bruce Banner's love interest and William Hurt as her father to full-blown Hollywood entertainment.Copyright 2018 Felix Alexander Dausend
