I’m beyond stoked. variety.com writer, Senior Editor of InContention.com and frequent guest on The Movie Blog, Kristopher Tapley has just seen The Incredible Hulk and has given his review of it. What did he think? Apparently he LOVES it. Here are a couple of excerpts from his review:
Louis Letterier’s “The Incredible Hulk” is not only likely to be the biggest, most exhausting (in all the good ways) film-going experience you’ll have this year, but it also holds the second turtle dove of a young studio’s seizure of what promises to be one of the greatest cinematic roll outs the genre has, or perhaps will ever see.
But despite consciously pushing the action peddle to the metal in this effort, and therefore breeding suspicion that the filmmakers might overdo it, each set piece is more dazzling than the last.
Finally, and to take things into specifics, the script manages to breed two villains in the same scene, one that couldn’t possibly have been better balanced. And it is that scene that serves as a microcosm for the film’s recipe. Sometimes you expect too many flavors to screw up the soufflé, but somehow such things just keep WORKING along those lines throughout.
Ok, I’m pumped as hell. I can’t wait to see this damn thing!
