Hancock
Rating: PG-13
Stars (out of 4): * 1/2
Length: 1 hour, 32 minutes
Synopsis: This reimagining of the superhero as a loathesome, foul-mouthed, often inept beast can't even be saved by Will Smith. For while, it seems as if the improbable storyline will somehow work. But then it devolves into the terrible movie you expect. And given the sailor-caliber swearing, how it earned a PG-13 rating is a mystery.

If you've come to appreciate Nic Cage movies despite the fact that they're usually terrible, well, here's your latest fix. Cage plays a cold assassin who coldly assassinates. That is, until he meets someone who gets him to reconsider his cold assassin ways. And just when everything was about to be dreamy, Cage must use his nearly former cold assassin skills to save the day. In a week with not a single decent new movie out, you might as well see the worst. Showtimes, review and more. Watch trailer.

Don't listen to the "official" critics reviews. If you like special effects and Will Smith you will enjoy the movie. The movie has a great twist at the end. There are many jokes that are crude, but funny. If you enjoyed Will Smiths previous movies you will like this one.
