The overlooked Hulk and the overrated Iron Man

I’ve seen all three comic-based movies this summer. The Night Rider is clearly the first class in high school (in the cloak of a comic movie, it’s a crime epic), but Iron Man and the Hulk can’t see that the former is better than the latter. How much is different from what the public opinion says and the box office performance of the two.
Personally, I really want to complain for the Hulk. Compared with Iron Man, the two actually have their own strengths and weaknesses. As far as the story is concerned, I prefer Hulk 2 because of the ups and downs, the flesh and blood, and the feeling of ordinary people, rather than the clouds of the son-in-law. But the Hulk has two fatal flaws. The first is that the special effects are done, especially in the scene of the university campus war. The Hulk in front of the camera and the real scene at the back seem to be in two different worlds, which are very direct. People have an unnatural feeling. The second weakness is the director. In fact, the script of Hulk 2 itself is quite dramatic (it seems that Edward Norton himself also participated in the revision of the script), but unfortunately the director has insufficient control, and the second half of the movie is directly lost. In order to "fight for the wind and jealousy", the first half was wasted in vain.
But overall, Hulk 2 is by no means as bad as the slobber of the outside world, at least not much worse than Iron Man.

  • Bruce Banner: Stan, I give you my word. Whatever you've heard about me, it's not true.

    Stanley: Oh, I know it. I always knew it. I mean, you know how I felt about you two.

    [Bruce nods]

    Stanley: Have you talked to her?

    Bruce Banner: No. She doesn't know that I'm here.

    [pause]

    Bruce Banner: She's with somebody?

    Stanley: Yeah, He's a head-shrink. They say he's one of the best. But a really nice guy.

    Bruce Banner: Oh... Good. That's good.

    Stanley: Bruce. What can I do to help you?

    Bruce Banner: I could use a bed for a few nights.

    Stanley: Ah. You can have the spare room upstairs.

    Bruce Banner: That'd be so great.

    [pause]

    Bruce Banner: There's, uh, there's one other thing...
