The Incredible Hulk movie

I went to see The Incredible Hulk last night. I thought it was terrific - the effects, the characterization, the flow, the emotion were all on target. The casting was excellent with one glaring exception: Tim Roth as Emil Blonsky. Whew! Stinky!

Overall the movie's really terrific, and you don't have to stay through the credits to see the cameo. One drawback, however, is that with Marvel now controlling these licenses, it's keeping very close to comic book canon. In one sense that's great because the new movies are pretty true to the comics, but in another it's bad because the absurdity of her origin means we're unlikely to ever see a She-Hulk movie.

Go see it. It's not as good as Iron Man, but it's pretty close.

Update: Slashfilm has an account of the Norton/Marvel dispute.
