Yeesh. Good job taking an interesting idea and using it to wipe your bum with. Hancock started out promising, but quickly morphed into something written by a 3rd grader. The plot had more holes in it than a pair of my MILs socks and it made no sense. It was dumb. The only thing worse was the ending. I won't give it away, in case you haven't seen it, but here, let me break it down for you.

Dude doesn't like peanuts, but he used to love peanuts. He'll still eat them occasionally, but only in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with extra jelly. He doesn't remember that he used to love peanuts, and would eat them in any form, dry roasted, from the shell, boiled, candy bar, peanut butter cup, fudge, with green eggs and ham. One day he remembers that he used to love them, and now, because he remembered he becomes allergic to them and can't eat them at all anymore, not even a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

The only thing good about this movie were the first 20 minutes and the special effects. I would kinda like to watch it again with my new speakers, but I won't.

5.0 out of 10
