Hancock —
I was pleasantly surprised by Hancock. I expected a run of the mill superhero movie, but the cast turned it into a real movie. The action and special effects were smooth and impressive, but I truly enjoyed the character of Hancock and the relationships that developed with the other characters. Much in like Ironman, the insight and true chracter of the superhero played an important role in the development of the movie. Hancock begins with a drunk superhero that wreaks much devastation as he "saves" the city from villans. He is an outcast in society and the movie develops from that place. There were many surprises in the movie that offered enjoyment throughout and I was surprised that I enjoyed it as much as I did.
