Saw The Hulk tonight -- a spoiler-free review

[Obi-Wan Pinobi]

Yesterday I won tickets to a sneak preview tonight of The Hulk. I just got home a little while ago and I have to give the movie a big thumbs up.

Thankfully the CGI Hulk looked a lot better than earlier images we've seen, the movie flowed very well and didn't drag at all, and I don't think the casting could have been better.

What was interesting was the way the split screens and the transitions between scenes and camera angles were handled -- with an almost "comic book page on the big screen" look and feel to them. It was definitely a different technique not used in other comic book-based movies. I don't know if I would want to see this technique used all the time in movies, or used a lot in any movie, but it does add some to scenes where a lot is happening at once.

LOL, the way the thread was titled I thought you meant...I saw the Hulk tonight.....a spoiler (in the thread).....free review (like your review was free of charge)....
Glad you liked it. Tell me, did you watch TIH as a child? If you did, was the size of the 'new' Hulk hard to get used to? He is so much bigger, it seems sort of weird. But I would like to see it, maybe when it comes on video, maybe on the big screen.

Me and my crew (about 10 to 15 of us) are having a "Hulk and Hooters" night on the 20th. We're all having dinner in our favorite resturaunt, then going to the AMC and watching the 10:15 showing of Hulk, it will be a fun time had by all! It's true, it's darn true!
