Just saw "The Hulk"

It was alright, well maybe a little better than alright.

It was too long for my preference though.

Anyway....the theater was packed, sold out, and filled with a nice combination of families, singles, couples small kids, and little kids (no babies thank goodness.)

There is one part near the end where I'm sure every person there was holding back tears (I know I was, and I'm not one to tear up easily.) The theater was so quiet during that scene, you could hear a pin drop.

Nick Nolte is in it, and let me tell ya...time has NOT been good to him!

Overall on a scale of 1-10, I give it a 7 1/2.

What do you think?

Cool! J.C. wants to see it but thankfully he couldn't find anyone to go with him tonight (god forbid WE take him we just have to sit in the theatre somewhere away from him and his friends)

I heart that it was well over 2 hours and wondered if it keeps your attention for that long.

I'm sure we will end up seeing it while its still at the theatre. I will say I heard part of the theme song and it sounded pretty good.

I guess that all depends. There was a family of 5 kids sitting in front of us, and all of them looked like they were under the age of 10. None of them were squirming or talking, which impressed me! In fact, it was a very well bahaved group of people in the theater!

I thought at times to myself "okay, lets move along here" but I bore easily.

I thought it was pretty good. A little graphic and long for some of the really young children (4 and under) I saw in the theater.

DH and I just got back from seeing it -- it was a disappointment for me. I mean, it was ok, but I expected something better. About halfway through the movie I started feeling sick for some reason, but everytime I closed my eyes I felt like I was in Disney World experiencing Alien Encounter -- I could tell stuff was "flying" at the screen, but I really kept flinching thinking I something was coming off the screen at me! But anyhoo..... Even DH who is a big Hulk (and Marvel) fan, was a little disappointed in it.

The actor that played the Hulk, Eric Bana, must be relatively new, because I've never seen or heard of him before. I read somewhere that he's Australian.

I didn't expect such a dark story that delved so deeply into the science of the change and the emotions caused by the events. It was very long but usually quite interesting and I was impressed by the look of the Hulk. It worked for me because I was ready for a cartoon style movie which I wasn't looking forward to because I've never been a Hulk fan. This was better IMO.
