      Superman is not super

      This is a substandard product coming out of the Hollywood routine assembly line. I have the following opinions:
      1. The rhythm is not tight. The incompatibility of the climax design, coupled with the lack of humor, made me almost fall asleep;
      2. The narrative is clichéd. The patchwork plot is really a waste of a very innovative "Superman".
      3. The choice of star route is a failure. I think that for a film to try a new type of film, the first thing is to concentrate the funds on the...

      I leave because I love you

      I just finished watching "Superman for All"
      , and Han Kao was seriously injured. He glanced at Mary for the last time, and then went down the window to stay away from her for love.
      The tears could hardly be held back.
      "Because I love you, I leave..." This is the gist of this sci-fi film, and that's what it's all about.
      Immortal fallen angel, lost memory. Because of her natural destiny, no matter how far away she is, she will always be attracted to her. It's just that love is...

      There are only three kinds of people in this world: man, woman, birdman

      The beginning of the film is still an enjoyable
      road chase. It's
      just a run on the ground and a flight in
      the sky. The most attractive HIP-HOP music is the background.

      There is a super humane ruffian superman, who is always
      dressed up like a street wandering for N years. At last, the cynical hippie
      has finally
      subverted the image of Superman. It’s no longer the blue and red, underpants, and the historical Superman with a standard 3 or 7-point...

      There are plots, contradictions, science fiction and depth-highly recommended!

      The first movie I watched during the summer vacation tells the story of a superhero who has always been upholding justice, but his rude, sloppy and disorderly practices have never been popular among the people. The superhero has been repackaged by a crisis public relations, making the superhero reshape the image in front of the world. Behind the story reveals the loneliness and misery of the hero's fate.

         Seriously, don’t say I’m out, I’m not out, but I’ve always had the habit of...

      An unwelcome superman

            This is a superman that no one likes. Everyone calls him a "jerk" because he has done 99 bad things while doing one good thing. To be honest, no one likes anyone who does one thing and asks everyone to wipe his butt, even if he is saving the earth. Except for Ray who was rescued by him (well, Ray was almost injured when he was rescued). Ray is a good person. He helped Hancock change himself and was recognized by everyone until those who hated Hancock became his fans....

      Should superheroes exist? Superheroes correspond to super villains. When super villains are solved, how should superheroes exist? Are superheroes public or private? Do superheroes take vacations? What are the benefits of superheroes? Nationality of superheroes? All in all, when supervillains don't exist, everything about superheroes is in...

      Superman is like a Chinese fairy, but fortunately, they can fall in love. Superman can actually marry and live with human beings. When will this day come, the Chinese who only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals will be completely abandoned. In the end, the fate of that fate cannot be changed. Whether I want to save you or save mankind, the condition is to stay away from...

    Movie plot

    As a superhero, Hancock ( played by Will Smith ) has tremendous abilities and great responsibilities. Everyone knows that Hancock can solve everything, but because Hancock has an irritable, contradictory, and acrimonious character, this has caused him a lot of misunderstandings. While his heroic actions have saved countless lives, they always seem to cause serious damage afterwards.
    The public finally couldn't bear this hero, wondering...

    Behind the scenes gags

    The film was not originally called "The National Superman Hancock", but "He Comes Tonight". This script has been tossed in Hollywood for more than 10 years, until it was finally realized and filmed.
    Warner Bros. originally planned to shoot this film, but then it gave up the opportunity, and Sony immediately took over and quickly created the film.
    The scene of the train collision in the film was shot in San Pedro, Canada. The crew...

    Starring performance

    Most of the audience came for Will Smith. And Smith's performance in the film did not disappoint the fans. Although the overall performance of the film is slightly inferior to "When Happiness Comes Knock", Will Smith's performance is still so perfect. He is quite cool in the film. In the emotional scene of the second half of the film, he puts a The image of superman with human fragile emotions is well-interpreted. (From " Yangtze River...

    Old tune at the end of the plot

    The superhero Hancourt played by Will Smith is completely subversive. He is sloppy, handy, and a bit lustful to take away. He rescued the car stuck on the road, but the price was to destroy a train. Such an "atypical superman" is undoubtedly a tense gimmick. He is more close to the people than the cocky Iron Man, and more vivid than the nerd Spider-Man. But these tense plots were wasted midway by the main theme that Hollywood has...

    Excitement and regret

    Watching a movie is an experience that is both exciting and regrettable. The excitement is the entertainment attributes and sensational pleasure that the summer blockbuster brought by the luxurious audio-visual effects; unfortunately, the film confirms the old saying "a good start is half the success", but for "Nationwide Superman Hancock" , It's only half. Before Will Smith kissed the "friend's wife" Charlize Theron, everything was so...

    The clues are scattered and the plot is abrupt

    Probably it was Sony’s ambitious goal to produce multiple sequels to "Superman Hancock for All", which also made part of the film a bit confusing because of too many clues buried. When Hancock had more contact with Ray’s wife, Mary, Mary suddenly became a superman with extraordinary abilities. She and Hancock are a couple who have been in love for 3,000 years. They have a good story angle. The director did not have a good grasp of the...
