30 Extra Lives

Just got back from seeing the Hulk. Pretty good. Not good enough to warrant the "reboot," but good. Thankfully, they didn't waste time on the origin, although they changed it slightly to suit the new direction that the Marvel movies are going in. All the useless info got taken care of during the credits. For the most part, acting was good. And damn, the dude the played General Ross looked exactly like he should. Almost too perfect.

The action was mostly fun, although the effects on the actual Hulk model were a bit lackluster after the amazing job that was done on Iron Man. The facial animation on both the Hulk and Abomination were believable, but they just stood out a bit too much from the background.

I've kind of run out of things to say, I guess that's not good. It's a fun movie, but I can't recommend it nearly as highly as Iron Man. That may be odd to compare the two, but since they came out so close together it's kind of hard not to. There was also way too much crossover between the last movie and this one. I guess since there weren't comic book panels they can consider it a reboot.

I'll be giving it a second viewing when it comes out on video and see how I like it then. But first impression isn't that great.
