Hancock Ratings & Reviews
- Nathan MagretaDecember 5, 2025The first half of this movie set this up to be an insanely fun ride with Will Smith as an insanely hilarious superhero with a great premise. But, then they introduce that story with Smith and Thearon being siblings, and it just becomes confusing and messy. Still, humor, strong performances from bateman, thearon, and Smith, and some wild action make this a worthy watch.
- tacl5December 3, 2025Best will Smith movie
- SpiciesttacoNovember 26, 2025Its a really good watch for a movie like this. Although im not a fan of the "soulmates" thing but i feel that they do it some type of justice at the end. I just wish they wouldve stuck to the "bum turning good" story.
- Mister ArnMay 22, 2025Interesting premise that falls apart with the injection of the love interest.
- Neale FouldsSeptember 21, 2025Entertaining but not extraordinary
- DonAndVayeAugust 27, 2025The present scene is the best scene in the movie. However the story is convoluted
- HakihikoFebruary 26, 2025A Unique Take on Superheroes That Falls Short "Hancock" starts with a fresh and intriguing concept, offering a darker, more cynical take on the superhero genre. The film's first half is particularly strong, presenting a reluctant and flawed hero who struggles with both his powers and public perception. Will Smith delivers a solid performance, bringing both charisma and emotional depth to the role, making Hancock a compelling character despite his self-destructive tendencies. Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman provide strong support, with Bateman adding humor and heart as a PR specialist trying to rehabilitate Hancock's image. Theron, on the other hand, brings a mysterious and intriguing presence that adds complexity to the story. However, the film loses its way in the second half, shifting gears in a way that feels rushed and inconsistent. The tonal shift from comedy and satire to a more dramatic and mythology-driven narrative doesn't quite work, making the latter part of the film feel disjointed. The potential for a deeper exploration of Hancock's character and backstory is there, but it feels underdeveloped, leaving the audience with more questions than answers. Despite its flaws, "Hancock" remains an entertaining film with a unique premise and strong performances. It just doesn't fully capitalize on its potential, making it a fun but ultimately unremarkable watch.
