IDK... I think I enjoyed the trailer for American Hero exponentially more than I liked anything about Hancock...

reply

Agreed. This looks like a better version of Hancock. The first half of Hancock was great, rest was sh!te.

reply

I totally agree about Hancock! And what's the explanation for his abilities? He's an angel? Gimme a major break!

But trust me when i say American Hero is even worse. Somewhere in this mess of a movie was a nice touching movie to be made but it's not the end result to say the least. Very inconsistent.


People who don't like their beliefs being laughed at shouldn't have such funny beliefs

Hancock allowed itself humour, entertainment and some great effects put to good use. It didn't take itself seriously at all. It was an adventure.

This piece of garbage allowed itself NOTHING. I am not fooled by the "grit", the "ghetto" or the "sad", this is pure feces. Oh, such a troubled Dorff with amazing powers, oooo - trying to cope and juggle the life as an addict and a father. *beep* this contrived *beep*

This guy was way more screwed up than Hancock.




Where is the face-palm emoticon when you need it?

no, Hancock had a plot.

Little grittier than Hancock, less commercial feeling.

Pretty much but with a shoe-string budget and only 5% of the action

I am curious. Have only read the description on Redbox.

It has it's moments but overall nothing amazing

watchable though

Too bad it was awful, the movie had potential but just sucked in every way, it really is if a loser had some powers and did almost nothing with them. Least Hancock had a few action scenes.
