They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Some critics claimed that the first half of the movie was the best part and that the rest of the film wasted the potential of that plot. Others claim the second half could have been a groundbreaking superhero drama if developed fully rather than wasting the first half of the movie being funny. Yet more feel that both of these criticisms are correct, and that the film suffers from trying to weld together two great, but incompatible premises.

When she said he was "built to protect people" more than any other immortal, I think that partially explains why his powers don't seem to fade as fast as hers. He looses them at a slower rate than others, which is why he's always the one that ends up saving her even though she starts off stronger.

"Hancock, did you shove one man's head up another man's ass?" The delivery of this one line in the movie always has me busting up laughing. I like the first half of the movie way more than the second. Not sure how accurate this is, but I had a professor that was friends with some of the animators that worked on the cgi models for Will Smith and Charlize Theron. He said that apparently Smith was pretty respectful, but that Theron was pretty rude. So they gave her 3d model a huge, lumpy ass as a small payback.

Fun fact - the "head up his a**" scene was actually created in CG to make it work properly. Both the first guy's lower half & the second guy are fully digital. Also at 13:52 - that was actually pretty close to how the theatrical version of the movie was cut to censor the slicing of the hand for a PG13 rating, vs the extended cut. It also excluded the whole segment with the woman at the beginning, because parts of the lovemaking were suggesting far too much for fragile non-adult audiences too handle (gasp).

Those "Missed Joke" counters are the best thing ever, if you didn't put that in there - um, you'll have a bad time. Also, I LOVED the new introduction, it has a "80s vintage look" with the actors representing there characters. Love it! Keep making new critic episodes! 👍😎

Fun fact: the director of this, Peter Berg, was originally going to direct the dune remake. then after awhile he did battleship instead. thank god we never saw that version or else dune would still be seen as unfilmable.

I think we should also consider ourselves grateful that Denis Villeneuve became the director of Dune instead. His direction really was spot on and you really get immersed into the world and characters. It became more than a film...it became an experience.

Doug: "You know what? Let's make a review about Hancock. I mean, it is a kinda nostalgic movie with interesting cultfollowing and interesting ideas." Rob: "Yeah, why not? It was not that good but it wasn't that bad, I think we can talk about the movie, it is not like we would get an opportunity in the next time to talk about it." Day before editing, both: "Seriously?!" But jokes aside, yes I agree: This movie has some very interesting ideas I wished we had more from. But it felt like two movies pressed together, and... well that kinda destroyed it, even though I really love both ideas and both ideas could work, but not in one movie. (I mean it's not as bad as BvS where they pressed 5 movies into one, bu still...) It was still very enjoyable because of Will Smith and his attitude :)

3:03: "I think everyone fantasizes at one point, what they'd be like with superpowers. Half the time you'd see yourself as noble, but admit it, you think about how fun it'd be to be an a**hole with them too." Brandon Sanderson talked about that one time. While driving somewhere, he was abruptly cut off by another driver, and the first thing that went through his head was how satisfying it would be to make that car just explode "like something out of a Michael Bay film, slow-motion and everything." He continued, (paraphrasing here; it was several years ago,) "a lot of people would take something like this and be introspective, and get all horrified at seeing such darkness in themselves. But I'm a writer. I got _inspired_ by it." From that seed grew _The Reckoners,_ a series of books about a world of superpowered individuals, but for whatever reason, they were all supervillians. No one's sure if it's a "power corrupts" thing or if some individual is handing powers out specifically to evil people, but the fact of the matter is, no one's ever seen a super-hero. Only villains who use their powers to become brutal thugs and warlords. The titular Reckoners are a group of non-powered vigilantes who hunt them down and assassinate them.

When it's said that Hancock is built to be a Hero; she means that at his heart he always felt at peace with himself whenever he is being selfless and helping others around him, which is shown pretty well in that Hancock doesn't turn down any chance at doing something Heroic: from stopping the shootout on the highway, stopping the train, returning a beached whale to the ocean, he doesn't once make any complaints during these rescues or bemoans about him being inconvenienced by them.

I'm a dog trainer and my late dog Rosie was cast in an indie film. One of the nicest people I got to meet on set was Big Dave. He's the guy who had a head shoved up his ass. Will Smith celebrated a birthday while filming this movie and Big Dave was in some stunt rigging attached to the floor when the crew brought out Will Smith's cake. Will gave a short speech and then realized that Dave was stuck to the floor away from the activity, so Will brought him a piece of cake and fed him. Apparently there's a clip of Smith giving him the cake in the behind the scenes for the movie.

you are missing something. 18:09 when they are together they lose their powers and that's also when people come after them and try to attack her to get to him. so it's not odd because she didn't have powers to defend herself at those times. the movie shows that they do lose their powers when together, but that getting away from each other brings them back. so anytime in the past that they lost their powers while together was not permanent. you are assuming that when she's telling him about this and all the times he would save her that she still had all her powers then. not confusing at all. and also, when she tells hancock that he's built to be a hero, you mock her for not being one. to that i say: we may all have feet, but not everyone has the calling to be a runner. just because she has powers doesn't mean she has the instinct to be a protector or a hero.
