Review of The Other Boleyn Girl (2008) by Ellen S — 17 Feb 2010

This is certainly a brave move for a superhero sequel. Sadly it doesn't pay off.

Since the first film, Bruce Banner has gone back in time and taken over as king - how and why are never explained. Eric Bana reprises his role but I was massively disappointed that he no longer turns big and green when angry, instead he rapes Natalie Portman (who is great in this), and then has her beheaded. I can only presume that the writer is trying to make some statement about the monster inherent, whether he turns green or not.

Either way it's a very poor sequel and poor Stan Lee doesn't even get a cameo.
