    It's a Will Smith movie. So ergo it can't be bad. Though he IS a scientologist now so who knows they could have eaten away his talent as a good actor. But I'll still see it just for the fact it's Will Smith and he's yet to disappoint.

    I saw it and liked it very much. It starts out good, and then twists to something different before the first plot line has a chance to get dull. It seems like the boys I went with wanted him to be a drunk asshole for the entire movie, and, while that was funny (train scene ftw), I like the route it went.

    I've seen many mixed opinions about it, but I'll see it sooner or later.

    Saw it last night. I enjoyed it very much. Great mix of comedy and supernatural action.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Oh gosh, I want to see this movie so bad. It only comes out in the cinemas today, and I'll have to find somebody who will come and watch it with me after I get paid on Saturday.

    I love Will Smith.

    I watched it an throughly enjoyed it. My only real gripe with the movie was I wanted to see the villain be more of a villain and have a little more action involving that route. But the movie focused on other things involving superheroes which was a nice route yet. Overall though still a great movie.

    Expecting good things for Hancock 2 in the next 10 years when Hollywood runs out of ideas and goes back to resorting to sequels.

    I haven't heard anything too positive (especially what I've read about the studio cutting down a lot of the originally scripted and shot sequences to get an R rating), so I might hold off for the DVD. The premise is still pretty awesome to me.

    The trailers were not convincing enough to get me to the theatre and I'm tired of seeing bad movies. My friends went anyway without me.

    The said I didn't miss anything. I was glad.

    Saw it and it was definitely worth it. A nice twist on a super hero movie, and completely enjoyable from start to finish. Easily one of my favourite movies this year.

    I've seen very little that convinces me this is any good.

    Is Hancock from a book?

    Anyway, I wanna see it. Will Smith's improves with every film he does, it seems. But I'll just buy it.

    Hmm....£5 to watch it once in the cinema....£5 to buy it on DVD...hmmmmm...

    I saw it last night and liked it very much..there was a lot of interesting twists going on, which I appreciate. I'd see it again.

    Interesting premise and relatively entertaining first half... but becomes a mess of jumbled ideas and a TERRIBLE twist at the end. Will Smith is as effortlessly charismatic and entertaining as ever though, but that doesn't save the film. Really not worth the money I paid to see it.

    2.5/5
