The Incredible Hulk (2008) kicks off an all-new, explosive and action-packed epic of one of the most popular Super Heroes of all time. In this new beginning, scientist Bruce Banner (Edward Norton) desperately hunts for a cure to the gamma radiation that poisoned his cells and unleashes the unbridled force of rage within him: The Hulk. Living in the shadows - cut off from a life he knew and the woman he loves, Betty Ross (Liv Tyler) - Banner struggles to avoid the obsessive pursuit of his nemesis, General Thunderbolt Ross (William Hurt), and the military machinery that seeks to capture him and brutally exploit his power.

Summary: Just an action vehicle, there's no meat on this Hulk
Comment: I never had issues with Ang Lee's "Hulk" besides some minor ones with the silly dad-made-him story and the goofy looking flashbacks that seem to belong in an Oliver Stone film. More-or-less though, I liked it.
The one problem, no sequel. After all, the point of the "origin" film is to set up at least two sequels, so you accept the slow pacing and the emphasis on how and why knowing that the set-up will pay off in the second film. But, what if there's not a second film?
Now the "Hulk" is "Incredible" and they're correct, I don't quite believe it. I've read that Norton envisioned a longer, more emotionally complex film and the studios, in typical studio fashion, slashed and burned it. So what is left?
While the new Hulk still looks a little too waxy on the skin to be alive (why is it only George Lucas can make completely CGI characters that truly blend?) his emotions come through better thanks to Norton acting out all the scenes for the animators (including a new, hi-def 3-D motion capture for facial expressions) and the result is a more engrossing Hulk character. Unfortunately he has little to do.
The film is a simple, long chase. The only twist is that the person doing the chasing is an aging commando who wants a "gamma" induced boost, which he eventually OD's on and becomes a monster. The result is the obligatory clash of the titans, a destroyed NY city and a finale, almost. The films doesn't want to explain or tie up anything and that's a problem. Once again, there's no end, and no planed sequel.
The film shows a third possible mutation / nemesis for Hulk, but only for a second and never returns. Meanwhile the big, bad second hulk monster is not killed, and doesn't return to human form, and is simply unconscious when last we see it. So the movie is supposed to be about Bruce Banner finding a cure, he doesn't and the Hulk defeating the bad guy, he doesn't, and a love story, unresolved, and a chase thriller, that stops chasing, then stalls.
The movie lacked the depth needed to carry such an open ending, and with no sequel in site (the movie made scarcely more than Ang Lees but was far more expensive) all that's left is a second origin film and no end in site.

Summary: Better than Hulk.
Comment: The Incredible Hulk is a better version than Ang Lee's Hulk which was released a few years ago. This particular movie is more lively and exciting but it is not a perfect action flick. Edward Norton and Liv Tyler make a lovely couple as Bruce and Betty and William Hurt is pretty flawless in terms of acting. Stan Lee makes a cameo apperance while Tom Roth once again steals every scene, he is truly creepy in this. Good solid movie with excellent special effects.
