Amazing visuals and action and music. Some very compelling characters and drama. The first 2 hours are a freaking amazing thrill ride with some bad ass hard, core nitty gritty fighting. The vigilantes in this movie don't pull their punches, they kill and they kill with flair and all the heat and anger would come from being in a situation and dealing with the ugly side of life. This movie is not cleaned up or sanitized, it is bloody and seedy and shows the nasty side of things and earns it's R rating just like 300 did. Denny Duquet from Grey's Anatomy steals the show as the Comedian and he's only in about a third of the movie.

My buddy loved it the whole way thru, maybe becaue he was mesmerized by the blue cock showing in the screen...lol! But I have to admit that I thought the last 30 minutes or so dragged. Maybe I was getting tired since was 2 in the morning, I don't know. Don't let that discourage you from seeing it, it's an amazing spectacle of a film to watch even with that blue cock...lol!!

I already want to watch it again.

@Primotivo,

I've been looking forward to this movie for a while now and I thought they did a very good job, given that the subject material was going to be difficult to translate to the screen.

The fight scenes were fantastic, especially the opening scene with the comedian and the "man in black".

I even preferred the ending the crafted for the movie over the original ending they used in the graphic novel. The movie version makes more sense.

@Primotivo,

Are these Marvel Comics characters.?
I personally got a real kick watching HANCOCK. A highly flawed superhero is great, IMHO.

Ill wait for the DVD, as I get older, Im no longer impressed with CGI unless it really is intertwined with the plot. (YES there must be a real plot). The last movies that had such intertwining were , HAncock and Master and Commander.

@farmerman,

it's a dc comic, but they are new characters to the original comic book, the original comic was a 12 issue self contained story

I'm looking forward to watching it, although I have heard that it did drag a little (one of my friends said it took longer to watch Watchmen than read the comic). I'll find out for myself this weekend!
