The Incredible Hulk (2008)



What an interesting movie !!! I thought this was a sequel to the previous hulk. But apparently this was a remake of the old Ang Lee's incredible hulk. My brother Kris told me, this was done by Marvel studio so not only it is staying more true to the original hulk, but it is finally linking all the super hero movies together for the one big Movie - THE AVENGER in 2012

So if you are not a comic geek like my brother Kris and like to know more about the universe he lives in. Then you have to watch the full super hero series. Here are some tid bits which i have learned from Kris

In Ironman - if you watch the end bits, you will see Captain America's shield in the background when Tony stark is in his lab. And if you stay behind for the credits. Samuel L jackson comes on and told tony starks he wants to start an Avengers initiative.

In this Hulk - Tony stark comes on and mentions again about the Avenger's initiative

Marvel is truly starting to link all the comic hero together, good move ! Hope DC is watching and learning !

Stay tuned folks ! For the other series Captain America,Thor and Avengers. It finally coming together !

The movie itself was not as good as Ironman but it was much better than the original Ang Lee's hulk. This one was less drama and the pace was well-timed. The movie makes more sense and tackles on the hulk's issue of being a dumb green beast, because in the comics the hulk was able to change without having to be angry and also maintain Bruce's intelligence. There is a glimpse at the end where we see him change to hulk while meditating.

So if you want to know more read Kris's blog. Overall 7/10
