Movie review of The Incredible Hulk

The Incredible Hulk - 7/10
Directed by Louis Leterrier
Cast - Edward Norton,Liv Tyler,Tim Roth,William Hurt

Plot Summary
Fugitive Dr. Bruce Banner must utilize the genetic accident that transforms him into a giant, rampaging hulk to stop a former soldier that purposely becomes an even more dangerous version,the Abomination.

Review
This is soooo much better than Ang Lee's Hulk in so many ways. Ang Lee's Hulk looked like fuck and was a fucking poofter and the storyline was shit as well. The new hulk is shorter and looks much more menancing, grittier and darker. This movie is just like what Batman begins did to the Dark Knight franchise....a makeover. Even though there are a few flaws in this movie, I still found it awesome.
the casting this time is different but good as well. Norton is the new Bruce Banner in which he does pretty well. Tyler is the new Betty Ross and she wasn't so bad except that in some scenes she acts just alittle too much.

Hurt does a way much better General Ross than Sam Elliott though (no disrespect to Elliott) and finally Tim Roth is the bad guy(as always). When Roth acts as a bad guy, he IS the baddest muthafucker around! Roth plays the character Emil Blonsky aka Abomination to perfection which was just fucking brilliant.
The most fucked up thing about this movie was the script. All the jokes were not funny and the lines were just plain horrible.There are movie references, tributes, cameo appearances and soundtrack totally made up for the flaws. You get to hear that "sad walking away song" which was classic and seeing Lou Ferrigno and Stan Lee (and the indestructible purple pants) definitely brings a smile to your face.
The reason why I'm giving this movie a 7/10 is because of the final fight scene between Hulk and Abomination.It was Fucking AWESOME!!!! Watch out for the very last scene where general Ross meets someone rather familiar who offers a proposal,which is definitely gonna make you cum in your pants if it really happens. Definitely worth watching on a weekend!
