A sequel to the Will Smith superhero movie Hancock confirmed by director Peter Berg.
I watched Hancock a few months ago; Will Smith is at his best, he is an amazing actor that can perform in a wide range of roles and pull them off well, from the action hero, such as Independence Day or I Am Legend, to the drama such as Ali. I will say that I am a fan of his and will often like a movie that may be less than perfect because of his presence.
In Hancock Smith plays the anti hero, a down of his luck, heavy drinking, misanthrope that is established immediately in his interaction with a child who is trying to let him know that his superhero abilities are needed. Hancock reluctantly goes to help out and it is hilarious when he catches up with the criminals and describes what will happen as he is nursing a hangover. And during this hero intervention his attitude leads to destruction of property which seems to be his habit. He is not very popular due to his destroying things more than the bad guys and has become a bit of a pariah but his luck changes when he saves a PR person (Jason Bateman) who is very grateful and offers to help Hancock reinvent himself, much like many celebs seem to do when they have a faux pas it seems. There are indications that Hancock really does care and has potential as he meets Bateman's son and discusses bullying.
The movie goes on from there with many good scenes - Hancock trying to be polite in a forced an uncomfortable manner and he eventually does reclaim himself and the tone of the movie shifts a bit from comedy to more serious in the context of an action movie as Hancock finds out more about himself and his limitations. One of the key points in this is telegraphed earlier when he meets a character (Charlize Theron, the wife of Bateman in the movie.)
The plot will surprise you at some point because there is a twist that we were not expecting, but is very entertaining. The cast has great chemistry. Will Smith is always enjoyable, and Jason Bateman and Charlize Theron are great in the film, delivers a great performance as the wife of the PR agent.
