One Paragraph Review: Hancock

Hancock may be the worst movie I've seen in a year or two. It was abysmal. While it starts from an interesting premise, it quickly abandons it to focus on something completely different. Fifteen minutes later it drops that second premise, and then fifteen minutes after that it drops the third premise. This continues for the entire movie. What probably frustrates me most was the date I saw this movie: the 4th of July. It is my God-given American right to see an action-packed American movie on America's birthday staring Will Smith. Specifically, Will Smith kicking ass. Ok, so it can't always be aliens. But he's a superhero, right? The movie was maddeningly stupid. If you see it you might feel like Will Smith kicked your ass. At least, your wallet's ass.
