I saw this really hilarious spoof on some talk show where a short man who is painted green corners Edward Norton and starts crying when Edward won't interact with him -- the tagline: "The Incredible Hulk: This time it's emotional!"
That's pretty much what's going on here. Bruce Banner is already the Hulk and now in hiding as he tries to find a way to remove the hulkiness from his blood ... but of course he must go on the run when the bad guys track him down. Whereas the Eric Bana flick focussed on CGI temper tantrums at set intervals, I think the Hulk only comes out 3 or 4 times in this one. The rest of the time, a story is actually being told. (I know: scandalous) The "big fight" at the end is kind of thrown in there because the movie is, after all, probably intended to be geared more towards adolescent boys (and grown men who act like adolescents) -- but until then, it's actually a more interesting movie than you think. Verdict: Discount Theatre
