THE PLOT:

Bruce Banner is working on a new kind of healing medicine which caused all other test subjects to pop balloons. But when a accident causes Bruce to be exposed it reacts with something deep within him and causes a startling transformation in him whenever he grows angry or outraged.

A transformation his sinister father David Banner has been waiting for ever since he was arrested for experimenting on Bruce decades before.

ZEDD'S OPINION:

Normally I don't approve of major re-writes like they did for this movie. But I liked the blending of the elements between the TV series hulk and comic hulk. I also liked the villain was David Banner which the sponsors forced them to use in the the TV series because Bruce was a "gay" name to them. But there are some lag issues and the only nudity in the movie and it's him. 8 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I agree but I wish they had Hulk talk more, instead of all the roaring. They only reason why they did that is because of Lou Ferrigno's hearing disability. But it is a fun movie and worth watching. 8 STARS as well.

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):

+ EFFECTS (The effects are perfect.)
+ STORY (The blending of the the TV series and the comic book elements work.)
+ CAST (The cast does a great job.)
+ MUTANT POODLE (That was kind of cool.)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- LAGS (There are some lags in the movie.)
- TALKING HULK (Wish Hulk talked more.)

...AND FINALLY...

- FAN BASED (If you don't like comic book movies or don't like the re-writes then this isn't for you.)
