I think Hancock had a few instances of that

Never got around to that one, worth it?

Critically panned, across the board, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It could have done with another couple of rounds of script polishing.

It was two movies Frankensteined into one. The first half is awesome. The second, not so much.

There's a deleted scene where Hancock meets a woman at a bar and takes her home. It's kinda weirdly emotional and totally should've been left in the movie imo. Here's the scene.

It was a script undirected for 12 years

It's not a good movie but it's a fun watch if you're not expecting much.

It's okay, not memorable though. I can't seems to recall anything from that movie but i do remember i have fun watching it.

I remember liking half of it. Oddly enough, I can't remember whether I liked the first half where he's a drunken bum, or the second half, where he's more together, but I specifically remember thinking half of it was decent at least.

So yeah, I agree that it's not very memorable.

You liked the drunken bum half. It just gets more stupid when the other guy's woman is a super hero too.

I mean, sort of. It was funny when she got pissed off and did some stupid stuff to make him leave. Didn't she throw a refrigerator, and him with it, through the house wall?

Have it on in the background.

I never fully understood Katherine Heigl's character and her point in the plot.

It's decent. Not great.

I wanted to like the movie, but drunk will smith just didn't do it at all for me.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

The first 2/3rds of the movie is really good. The last part is pretty bad. Overall I enjoyed it.
