Theatrical Review of The Incredible Hulk »

Published Jun 14, 2008 Until Doctor Sterns enters the picture, this reinvention of the big green guy is firing on nearly all cylinders.

Ironman is easily a 8/10...so, IH being 114 minutes, and Hulk being 138 minutes, you would think if they had trimmed Hulk a bit, it would've been way more like IH?? Go figure...will watch that today, and will comment tomorrow, but until then, the Hulk movie is good...

(no pun intended)

in terms of "face value" money, this movie has grossed less than $5 million more than the previous "hulk". if you adjust for inflation, this movie actually grossed less.

i think we're all "hulked" out. there is no future for this character.

Depends on the DVD and Blu-ray sales. The Incredible Hulk might not have been a "smash" at the box office, but home-video also does seem to affect studio decisions. Remember Firefly?

Plus if the script is decent for the second one, and maybe introduces a well-known character (like the Silver Surfer in the Fantastic Four sequel) I really can't see the studio holding back.

The last scene was the best of all...it actually gives you something to look forward to in the next movie...

I liked this new Hulk much better than other one (2003). Much better story and the action was good too. Plus this Hulk looked a lot more intimidating than the other one. I hope they make a sequel to this newer one (2008), they will just have to go in a different direction now or introduce some crazy characters from the Marvel universe.

I'll be buying it on bluray when it comes out.

I have a feeling this will do well in DVD sales simply because of the forthcoming "Norton" cut with the extra footage.

Comic book fans will snatch this up on DVD for sure along with Iron Man. Obviously Iron Man will sell more but this new Hulk should do ok also. I'm guessing of course.

norton isn't exactly a big draw...plus there are limits to how many times you can squeeze money out of comic-books fans. even they stayed away from "the punisher".

Very true, however, Incredible hulk was a much better movie than Punisher. Especially the action at the end of the movie.

HULK SMASH!!
