Advantages: Different than any other superhero film out there, Will Smith plays a good part

Disadvantages: Bit slow in parts

The alcoholic and clumsy Hancock played by Will Smith is a superhero but not you typical superhero as he is the most hated person in LA, as in spite of saving lives, he also destroys properties causing high cost to the city to fix his damages.

When he saves the life of the PR Ray Embrey played by Jason Bateman from a train, Ray feels in debt to Hancock and decides to change his image. He brings the anti-hero to have dinner at his home, and introduces him to his son and fan Aaron and to his wife, Mary. Embrey played by Charlize Theron, But Mary does not want Hancock in her life and why is this? I will not spoil this part for you I'm sure you will guess as the film goes on but I will leave that to you.

This is not your typical superhero movie and that's why I think it makes a very watchable film. You follow the life of a modern day superhero and see what trials and tribulations they would have to go through if they were non-fictional and living in today's society.

Will Smith plays a really good part here and I for one did enjoy this film. I like Will Smith as an actor and once again he has done well here. I would recommend anyone to at least rent this film it's a good watch a nice break from your typical superhero film.

Summary: Worth a watch just because its different
