[Week IX] Movie Review: Hancock

Hancock is a comedy movie about a jack-ass superman who does heroic thingy without mattering the law. It is true that he might has saved one’s life, but also costing a lot of million dollar by breaking the environment at the same time. Hancock is not the kind of man who cares what other people might think, until the day he saves the life of PR executive named Ray and he begins to realize that he may have a vulnerable side after all. He ignores people because he is lonely deep in his heart, while everybody mock and hate all the things he had tried to do for a good deed. He is immortal until he meets Mary, Ray's wife, who actually is the same kind of human like him. She was Hancock's wife before she meets Ray, and that was a very long time ago. Hancock does not remember because something hits his head so bad that he had amnesia when he and Mary were trying to escape from someone who was trying to chase them because of their immortality and their enormous ability. When Hancock and Mary are close together, they become vulnerable and mortal because they are actually meant together.

Overall, I would give score 8 of 10 to this movie. The main thing we can learn from this movie is that with a great power comes a great responsibility. We must think for the consequences before we act, think ahead. And also, we cannot just ignore what people said to us just because they do not liked us because we are not supposed to dissolved in misery which makes us lonely and rather to hate people around us.
