The Marvelous Marvel Rewatch (Now Playing: Avengers: Infinity War)

[AnmolRed]

I hadn't seen the Incredible Hulk since i was a kid and remembered very little of it, so seeing it today was like watching a new movie, which felt good.

There are some glaring continuity issues after this,with only Ross ever seen again due to Civil War but that isn't points off for this movie.

Pros:-
- First off , all the actors are great and after seeing this I wish Edward Norton had continued as the Hulk(Mark
Ruffalo is great too) and the references and connectivity to the other movies is very subtle, which I liked.
- The first hour of the movie is really great and its an origin story without really being one, which is surprising for
an early Marvel movie, the scenes in Brazil especially are really well done and the Hulk's CG looks great.
- I really liked the romance as well and it feels far better than with Black Widow later and it's weird how Betty isn't
mentioned later.

Cons:-
- The 3rd act of the movie is bad, while the monster fight is fun on a schlock level , nothing else works.
- What was Tim Roth's motivation anyway? He wants to fight Hulk but why does he turn on Ross?
- The CGI for the explosions and Abomination is bad, even for a 2008 movie.

P.S No consequences for Ross? He's fine in Civil War.

Overall,I'd give this movie a 5.4/10 rounded out to a 5, that 3rd act really knocks it down.
