He saves lives and intervenes to carry out rescue missions, but he causes more damage than the situation would have, like billions of dollars in damage to the cityscape as he crashes into buildings and destroys highways!!

Well……Normally when we think of superheroes we think of a charming, polite, well dressed person with unnatural powers!. But then in newest superhero film, HANCOCK that hit theaters for the July12th holiday weekend it’s an unusual kind of superhero ,a kind of a fascinating one. Hancock’s character goes against the normal and is unusual because he has no desire to improve himself or his life and he certainly doesn’t care about people he saves!!His ‘heroics’ are knee-jerk; simply habit acquired over hundreds of years.
John Hancock, played by Will Smith, is rude, has a disregard for people’s feelings, and is drunk half the time. He’s a disgruntled man, but he at least realizes he should use his superhuman powers for good instead of evil. Hancock saves people out of obligation and in the process racks up millions of dollars worth of damages
. The people know it and launch a campaign to get rid of him………

. Hancock’s monotonous life takes a turn one day when he saves a public relations executive from an on-coming train. Ray Embrey, in a fit of gratitude offers to remake Hancock’s image. After weeks of “training” and in jail, Hancock becomes a real superhero (outfit and all), winning the love of a city that previously hated him.

However, the film loses any sense, interest and worth halfway through. When the film’s biggest surprise,is revealed by Charlize Theron it becomes increasingly messy incomprehensible and lost..
I am trying to think of the correct words to say about this film….., horrible,horrendous and pathetic do not do this film justice. Yes, it was that bad….. I saw the movie today…and to be frank..i was utterly dissapointed!!
