Review of Planet Hulk (2010) by Matthew S — 25 Jan 2010

The Hulk is banished to another planet when humans can't take the constant fear brought on by the beast. On this new planet, he is enslaved and forced to fight other alien races alongside a group of fighters known as the Gladiators.

The one thing that annoyed me about this flick is the Hulk was made famous because he is human, then turns into a beast when really angry. He doesn't turn into Bruce Banner in this movie...not once. Even when he's sleeping he continues to remain a beast. I'm not sure if it's because it's on a different planet or not, but the way the movie made you think was he is and always was a beast.

I didn't know what I was expecting when I watched this. I know that it is based on a comic-book series with the same name, and no I haven't read that comic. I just think comic book or no comic book, they made this version of the Hulk solely to see him fight, with barely any solid story line.

I would understand the film better if it were meant for children, but it obviously wasn't with all the killings that happened. It isn't too terribly violent, but it's violent enough to give kids a little scare, this isn't Spongebob, folks.
