Hancock

John Hancock (starred by Will Smith) is a man with superhero power but he is not a superheroes because he does not act like a superhero. He does save people from danger until damage public infrastructure like building, road, etc. Besides, liquor is his favorite. He drunk almost all the time.

Due to his bad habit and action, the people of Los Angles hate him except Ray Embrey (starred by Jason Bateman) who was saved by Hancock in an accident. Ray Embrey is a Public Relation specialist and decided to train Hancock to become a Superhero, but his wife Mary Embrey (starred by Charlize Theron) raises objection.

Actually Hancock and Mary are husband and wife since 3000 years ago. When they are close together, they will lose superpower and the enemy will come to attack them. 80 years ago they were attached until Hancock wounded and lost memory. Mary decided to leave him alone and started to have new life like normal people does.

Now they meet up again and the enemy will appear soon to take their life. Can they face the challenge again?

The movie is short. I expected this movie will bring a lot of fighting scenes but actually not. It is with a lot of jokes, especially when he says "Good Job, Good Job" to people, haha :))

Anyway, the movie doesn't explain the background of Hancock. Why he has superpower and where are they from? Who are they? From Mars? Really don't know here...

Movie Rating: 6 / 10
