Overall, I still admire Norton's Bruce. Norton's eyes seemed to be more telling than the boy who was frustrated and unable to control himself in Ang Lee's version of "Hulk". He stood behind the tree and stared at Betty secretly. The beauty is still there, but the melancholy that has become a remembrance is all in his eyes, almost becoming a literary film. The more important part of the movie is Bruce's resistance and struggle to turn green, while the Norton version is more active and controlled because of the identity of its creator. At the same time, it is more confused and more panicked because of the urgent desire for a normal life. Bruce is not a hero. He has neither the lofty responsibility of punishing evil and promoting good, nor the reverence for violence. 80% of the film is devoted to Bruce's resistance to turning green and how he tried his best to cure himself. On the contrary, Giant 2 and the scientist Mr. Blue, who are the first supporting role and the first villain, have a more cult feeling for Hulk's power and abilities. Here, the director's brushwork also pointed to the meaninglessness of violence. Officer Emil was fascinated by the power given to Hulk by gamma rays, but after he got his wish, he could only wreak havoc in the city. In Ang Lee's version, Bruce wanted to live a normal life on the one hand, and on the other hand, he once said that he liked the feeling of being out of control. The new version separates the two sides of Hulk, one surrenders to violence, and the other strives to get rid of the control of force.
Of course, the story still has to show the scene of the two giants fighting, otherwise how to reflect the dazzling CG and special effects? Bruce was also exalted once because of his form, and he resolutely jumped to awaken his ability to transform himself that had been painfully restrained, and he had a bloody battle with Emil to become a giant. The translation of Invincible Piliquan made the audience happy, of course, we still have to admire the technological progress, which made such a wild and unreliable melee scene so shocking.
This afternoon, I specially made up for Lee's version of "Hulk". It was found that Hulk2 removed the entanglement between father, daughter, father and son, and put more emphasis on Bruce's freedom from green control and love for betty, which is more mainstream and warmer. The blue horror scenes and the intricate memories that continue to stir up ripples have also disappeared. The plot is single-line, which is a completely typical heroic film style. The film that should have been popcorn is completely popcorn without destroying the appetite of the audience. Although Li Ang's theme and narrative ability are still beyond the reach of 2, after all, the pursuit is different. In terms of pleasing to the eye, Norton, Liv and Tim Roth are on the same stage 2 are slightly better.
Compared with other heroes, Hulk’s biggest difference is that he doesn’t want to be a hero from start to finish, and he doesn’t even want to control and use his special abilities like Iron Man. It is always driven by his own special powers, and is controlled by this power. Can control the escalating power, and what is the purpose of this expanding power escalation. Bruce didn't understand, neither did I.
At the end, bruce seems to be able to become Hulk freely, maybe interesting, but loses the point that I love most in the film.
