Weekend Movie News Wrap Up: September 28, 2008
September 28, 2008:
It’s a sad Sunday for the Weekend Movie News Wrap Up, with the passing of Hollywood Legend Paul Newman. However, the beauty with Hollywood is that great films and great actors will live on forever. Newman has left a great body of work as his legacy, but lets not forget that the man also was hugely charitable, giving millions away from the profits of his Newman’s Own brand. It’s a real shame.

Stampede duo runs together on and off the field
September 27, 2008:
They both run on the same track team. One says that the other is faster and admits that he can’t catch up to him.

They go to church together, watch movies together and like the same professional sports teams. They both recently watched “Hancock” and gave the same positive review of the movie.

Meet Jordan Bracy and Raashaan Reason, both 13, teammates on the West Mesquite Stampede track and field team. They have been competing against one another in practice and alongside each other at track meets since 2004. And after four years, Jordan came up with this conclusion about his close friend.

Letters to the editor
September 27, 2008:
The use of popular movie quotes has long been part of our everyday conversation. When I recently returned home from vacation, the first words out of my mouth were “There’s no place like home” from “The Wizard of Oz.”

At a basket bingo last month a lucky ticket holder was shouting, “Show me the money” from”Jerry Maguire.”

When I was a teenager and my mother was tired of hearing my sister and me argue she would say, “Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn,” from “Gone with the Wind.

And who hasn’t at least wanted to say, “Go ahead, make my day,” from “Sudden Impact” to someone getting on your nerves. All of these are harmless, with the meaning understood by society.

Marlowe Investigates HANCOCK!! — Ain’t It Cool News: The best in …
Both producer Akiva Goldsman and Sony head Amy Pascal were in attendance. Akiva was looking mighty nervous as the movie was about to unspool… you see, this was a surprise screening for the common folks and not an industry event. No one in the audience knew which film they were seeing as they filed into the room…but everyone was secretly hoping it was the THE DARK KNIGHT. When one of the studio lackeys announced that the film we were seeing was Hancock the reaction was, to say the least, subdued. The usual pre-amble followed about how the effects were not totally rendered, some shots were not color corrected, etc.

The Zone • View topic - HANCOCK (Tonight, Will Smith Comes on Your…)
Oh that scene was laughable. I just rolled my eyes. One minute she is in the kitchen, no makeup, typical mummy gear. One scene later, she is flying through the air in black leather, moussed hair, and heavy eyeliner. Yeah, that worked. mmmmmmmmm…kay.

Action!! Effects!! Booze!! The New HANCOCK Trailer Has Some Pretty …
A new trailer for HANCOCK premiered on TV last night & has already hit YouTube. It shows tons of action & visual effects; I love the shot of Will Smith powering through the air in his Superman pose with a bottle in one hand.

A while back we ran a bunch of reports from early screenings of the film - pretty much a split decision. This trailer suggests a movie whose scale is larger and actionier than I was expecting…which is cool by me…although I suspect The Powers That Be top loaded the promo to steer us away from the inter-personal material that test audiences didn’t enjoy too much.

Will Smith Plays Homeless Superhero In ‘Hancock’ - Movie News …
You might be up on the latest action-movie news regarding “Iron Man,” “Justice League of America” and “Watchmen,” but have you heard about that other superhero? The alcoholic, homeless guy in the flip-flops? If not, it might be time to put Will Smith’s postmodern comic flick on your radar, because it could be on the verge of creating another “John Hancock” revolution.

“We’re halfway through it right now,” explained director Peter Berg this week, giving us some exclusive details on the film. “Will Smith plays an alcoholic, suicidal superhero [whose actions are] destroying the city of Los Angeles, and he’s trying to rehabilitate his image.”

Will Smith’s ‘Hancock’ Soars To #1 - Movie News Story | MTV Movie …
It’s American as apple pie: a Fourth of July weekend spent gulping down hot dogs, hamburgers and the latest Hollywood extravaganza starring the one star who is always money in the bank, Will Smith. Yes, once again, the nation celebrated its independence by contributing a whole lot of cash — $107.3 million since its July 2 opening, and $66 million over the weekend — to the opening haul of a Will Smith film. This time the mad money went to “Hancock,” the Peter Berg-directed superhero flick that finally put Smith in spandex.

‘Hancock’: Stuporman, By Kurt Loder - Movie News Story | MTV Movie …
John Hancock (Will Smith) is a new kind of superhero. He’s a mess. One night in Miami, after a mugging, he woke up in a hospital with no money, no ID and not a clue who he was. When a nurse asked for his John Hancock on a form, he gave it to her and then kept the name for his own. That was 80 years ago. Today, Hancock is an L.A. street drunk with a mean disposition and some offbeat abilities. He can fly, for one thing. And he can pick up a car with one hand and stop a speeding locomotive with his fist. Also, as he tells his new friend Ray Embrey (Jason Bateman), “I don’t age.”

Trailer 3

The public has finally had enough — as grateful as they are to have their local hero, the good citizens of Los Angeles are wondering what they ever did to deserve this guy. Hancock isn’t the kind of man who cares what other people think — until the day that he saves the life of PR executive Ray Embrey (Jason Bateman), and the sardonic superhero begins to realize that he may have a vulnerable side after all. Facing that will be Hancock’s greatest challenge yet — and a task that may prove impossible as Ray’s wife, Mary (Charlize Theron), insists that he’s a lost cause.

Movie Error

    When Hancock is being shown the YouTube videos, on the computer the watermark is on the left. but when it’s shown on the whole screen, it’s on the right.
    When Hancock returns Embrey and his car back to his house just after saving him and then picks up and moves the car onto the drive, you can see the blue crane used in the reflection of the car windscreen.
    The locomotive in the train wreck was a low-powered switching engine. Dozens and dozens of rail cars kept piling up, yet that engine would not have been powerful enough to pull such a long train in the first place.read more…..

Trivia

    Warner Bros. passed on the chance to make the film. Sony then stepped in.
    The script, originally titled ‘Tonight, He Comes’, floated around in Hollywood for over a decade.
    The train wreck scene was filmed in San Pedro, CA, in conjunction with Pacific Harbor Line RR. PHL SD18 diesel locomotive #40 was changed by the movie crews to the fictitious Southland & Western RR.
    The movie was shown at a US military base in the Middle East the week before it opened in the United States - it was free to all US military personnel on base.read more….

Goofs

    The amount of spaghetti and meatballs in the bowl, when Hancock first arrives at Ray’s house and is invited for diner, changes between shots.
    In the opening scene when an SUV is fleeing the police it turns a corner and crashes into the side of a car. In the next scene the side of the SUV has no damage.
    When Hancock picks up the police cruiser to protect the downed female officer, it can be seen that the car has no transmission or prop-shaft, despite having supposedly just been driven to the heist.
    In the beginning of the film, during the car chase when Hancock is in back of the suspect’s car and breaks the bottle, the next shot has him holding a different looking, very obviously fake broken bottle.read more….

Movie Reviews

Hancock never made any claims of being a typical superhero movie. We were warned to expect the unexpected. So, here we have a superhero everyone loves to hate and unlike Superman or Spiderman, his all actions are booed by the very people he is trying to save. A very amusing and unforeseen plot which seems very promising in the beginning but tend to lose its thread in the later part of the movie. The movie can be clearly divided into two parts with first indisputably superior to the latter. First part is funny, plausible and fast moving with a lot of action but around the middle, the story changed its tone. From being amusing, it became tragicomedy with lots of sexual tension thrown in.

The back story of Hancock was perceived as deviation from the main plot by many but it is essential in order to understand his psychological make up. His utter hopelessness, his cynicism and his apathy towards others becomes clear once we delve into his past. Hancock is much more real than any other superhero because of his imperfections and is much more lovable because of this very reason. Our perception about him goes on changing as the movie progresses.

Extremely refreshing movie with lots of humor and action thrown in. The drama that comes in the end is added bonus. Will Smith is simply superb and Charlize Theron lends her character a certain poignancy and depth. A must watch even for everyone.

Hancock- Detailed Summary

August 24, 2008 by admin  
Filed under Action

Detailed Summary

Hancock is a superhero albeit with a difference. He is alcoholic, cynical, and completely down and out with his super heroism thrust upon him. A reluctant superhero you can say who goes about saving the world while leaving a trail of destruction. He is mad at world that jeers at him and at best ignores him. He lives in Los Angeles and is an absolute bum. Residents of the city think of him as a nuisance they can very well do without instead of a savior who is helping them by making the city a safer place. His each heroic deed is met with criticism and court subpoenas for property damage he has caused.

The movie opens to three goons being chased by the police. Our superhero is awoken from his drunken slumber by a little boy and reminded of his duty as a superhero. Hancock reluctantly flies off to the scene of crime and manages to pin the criminals only to be severely criticized by the public and administration alike for causing damage worth several million dollars.

Ray Embrey is a public relation person who unsuccessfully pitches his All-Heart logo to corporate houses who are, or at least want to be perceived as extremely charitable. While returning home after one such unsuccessful meeting, his car gets stuck on the rail tracks because of heavy traffic. All his attempts to escape from his car on seeing a freight train approaching prove to be futile. Just as he thinks that it’s the end of him Hancock comes to his rescue. Hancock picks his car from the tracks and throws it on other cars. He steps right in front of the train to stop it and derails it in the process. Public starts jeering at him for causing so much damage and nearly killing the driver of the other car. Ray is the only one who realizes that Hancock has saved his life. He thanks him profusely and Hancock graciously drops him to his home (quite literary) along with his car. There Ray introduces him to his wife and son and invites him for dinner. Ray’s son is a huge fan of Hancock but his wife is skeptical of the superhero.

After the dinner, Ray tries to convince Hancock to have image makeover. And for the first time the loneliness and vulnerability of Hancock surfaces. He is not as indifferent as he seems and the warmth shown by Ray touches him deeply. After his initial refusal, he agrees to let Ray handle things for him. Hancock publicly apologizes for his indiscretion and agrees to be incarcerated for the damage of property he had caused at Ray’s instance. The only problem is that jail is full of criminals, who were sent there by Hancock. But it is actually no problem for Hancock as he knows how to handle them. They soon learn that it’s best to leave him alone.

Hancock gradually opens up and his apathetic attitude towards other people begins to melt away. Ray and his family’s undiluted affection and concern changes Hancock as he no longer feels neglected or uncared for. Finally Ray’s plan succeeds and public realizes the importance of having Hancock amongst them. The crime rate shoots up and police is unable to control the situation. Ultimately, the police chief calls Hancock to help them with a bank robbery. Hancock arrives in his new suit provided by Ray and saves the life of an officer before he foils the robbery and rescues the hostages held by the leader of the robbers, Red Parker.

This time, people of Los Angeles respond with elation and applaud their superhero. Hancock becomes popular with the residents of the city as Ray had predicted. To celebrate, Hancock goes out for dinner with Embreys. Over the dinner Ray narrates the story of his first meeting with Mary after his first wife’s death during childbirth. Hancock also talks about his amnesia of last 80 years and his apparent immortality.

Back home, Hancock tucks a drunk Ray in bed before he comes down to Mary. Both are drawn to each other and it is revealed that Mary also has superpowers like Hancock.

But Mary asks Hancock to remain quiet and leave their family alone. He threatens to expose her unless she tells him more about them.

She visits him next day and tells him that they were made in pairs and have been around for about 3000 years. They were called gods and angels at other times and now they are the only two of their kind left. She admits that she actually is his wife. Hancock wants to talk to Ray immediately but Mary tries to stop him. A struggle ensues between them resulting in considerable damage to the downtown Los Angeles where Ray is present for a meeting, who sees and recognizes Mary using her superpowers.

Disillusioned Hancock goes to a liquor store to get a bottle and gets shot in torso while foiling an armed robbery attempt. He starts bleeding and has to be hospitalized. Mary visits him and reveals what she had withheld earlier. She tells him that when a pair of immortals comes close, they start to lose their powers. They turn into ordinary humans and die like them. She recounts many instances when they were separated while trying to save each other including the time 80 years ago when he was attacked in an alley while they were going for a movie. Fractured skull caused him amnesia and she decides to stay away from him so that he could recover.

While they are talking, hospital is attacked by Red Parker, the bank robber along with two other jail inmates who have a score to settle with Hancock. Mary gets injured just as Hancock manages to stop the two fellows. Red Parker tries to finish off Hancock but Ray aborts his attempt by throwing a fire axe at him.

Blood rushes out of Mary and her pulse becomes very weak. All attempts to revive her come to a naught. At one point no pulse could be seen. So Hancock, with the last ounce of his energy, takes off from the hospital. As the distance between Mary and him grows, both begin to heal.

Hancock finally lands in New York working as a superhero. To show his gratitude to Ray, he paints All-Hearts logo on the moon before calling him and asking Ray to look up to see the world wide advertisement of his logo.
