Review of Hancock
Hancock - From drunk to sober? Sloppy to cool? Hated to beloved?
If ever there was an atypical hero, Hancock is it.
If ever there was a candidate in desperate need for a makeover, Hancock is it.

And since everyone loves a good makeover (judging by the success of makeover shows ranging from personal looks, to homes, to restaurants), just on that basis alone, the movie Hancock will draw in the audiences. Add Will Smith (of Bad Boys and Men In Black fame) to the equation, and you'll have a box office hit.

Hancock is a hero that leaves a trail of destruction (sounds familiar?) whilst saving the day. He's rude, drunk, sloppy and homeless. Perfect candidate for a makeover. In comes Ray, the PR guy, who wants to do the job. So, off to jail Hancock goes (they reckon that the people will miss him when he's not around to fight crime). It works...Out he comes again, complete with a brand new super hero look - tight leather outfit and all that jazz...Does it work? Can our atypical hero be transformed to the perfect superhero? Watch the movie and find out.
