The movie starts with an army scientist named David Banner who performs genetic experiments for the government.
He carries one out on himself before fathering his son Bruce. After a few years into Bruce’s childhood, a tragic event occurs, which results in David’s incarceration for 30 years and separation from his son.
Though it’s true that the Hulk doesn’t appear until 45 minute into the movie, once he does, the action hardly stops. Sure there are scenes of destruction, but they are calculated, punctuating turning points in the movie, instead of bombarding the audience as mayhem in others. The backdrops upon which these action sequences are set upon are breathtaking.
The battles rage from an underground base, to the vast majestic Monument Valley landscape, all the way to the Golden Gate Bridge and even to the very stratosphere. I found many of the scenes to be incredibly moving, which took me by surprise. Though I secretly hoped that the Hulk would just be ICE Storm with Hulk in the Joan Allen role I have to admit that Lee pulled off one helluva feat. When Betty is drinking the beer, the bottle turns round between shots and Boom mic visibleWhen the Hulk is talking to Ross. Although it’s nice entertainment movie.
