Meet our superhuman..

I really should have watched this movie earlier..When it was played on the cinema, I heard the review was so so, so I pass..But yesterday I watched it, out of boredom (and the recommendation from my boyfriend actually) and I totally loved it!

I love a story where superhero is not God, where superhero is sometimes a human being as well..  They can do mistakes as and they’re not figures which are totally out of our reach.. giving us hopes that maybe, we can all be superheroes.

I mean, where else can you find a superhero who has to attend AA and anger management class? (Except maybe in Watchmen, which is why I enjoyed it as well..)

Hancock (Will Smith) is the hero here. But this movie also has another hero: Ray (Jason Embrey). He dares to stand up for what he believes..or to be exact..maybe who he believes in: Hancock, whom everyone has lost faith in. And it’s hardly Hancock’s fault for lacking in motivation to improve himself when everyone, who hardly does nothing at all, can not stop booing him. Please..

I think those who don’t enjoy Hancock simply can not handle a switch. Don’t expect anything plain here. Our superhero can’t even get his girl here…. As she, Mary (Charlize Theron) once said: And the one thing I learned, fatedoesn’t decide everything. People get to choose.  

In some scenes, Hancock is also hilarious. Especially, in that scene of Hancock learning to say “good job” and his chronic allergy with “asshole”..He’s simply lovable..

In short, I can not tell much about Hancock unless you watch it by yourself. You might then be able to decide on your own if you love it or not. 

But the thing I love most about Hancock is: it gives us hope that everyone can indeed be a hero… if you and someone you care believe that you can.
