Big Opening, Bigger Disappointment
Filed under: Film Flickers > Will Smith
As you probably know by now, Will Smith seems to own the July 4th weekend for movie releases.
His Independence Day, Men In Black, and Men In Black 2 movies have netted millions over the holiday weekend.
So, it's no shocker that his latest film, Hancock, is out this July 4th as well.
The movie is already off to a good start and its expected to make over $100 mill this weekend.
Unfortunately for all those involved, the movie is getting shiteous reviews!
Will U go watch it?

i'll watch it(:
1st:D
nope.
Hell no
awwwww
aw i liked hancock!!! i thought it was funny.
I saw it last night, it wasn't amazing but I still enjoyed it!
No.
I saw it opening night and really liked it!
Yes Claro que si!
Curious quesiton here…..Is it true that the scientologists still believe L. "Ronnie" Hubbard is alive? I mean that douchebag died years ago…..I had a friend that joined the Scientologists because he was an addict….they paid for his treatment and everything. However what he told me was that you get to a certain level where you have to swallow your tongue…..he couldn't do it. Oh yeah, they also take your entire income - you have to sign it away. Fucking nuts.
def.
critics cant handle the fresh prince's consecutive successes?
Nope, not watching it. Looks stupid!
I went to see it, but it was ONLY okay. The plot was TERRIBLE!!! The superhero thing was cool, and so was the fact that he was an asshole. But once that stopped, it wasn't that good. I had so many unanswered questions and I wanted to know a lot more.
i saw it yesterday and it was entertaining…..there is only so much storylines ppl can work with these days…so i dont think it was that bad…everyone should go see it……First!!!!!!!
Heck yes im gonna see it
i will watch it i mean we r talking about will smith! btw with those comment ur not helping perez JUST SAYING
I'll go watch it! I trust the critics so much anymore. Especially when it comes to big name stars, it feels like at times they have an agenda and right now they are anti-Will. I hope it breaks records!
No thanks. Little Willie makes some decent movies, but I'm not devoted to seeing his movies, just because he's the star. This looked as awful as the reviews are suggesting. A big budget and countless effects shots can't save a dud.
i heard it was really good ??????
cant wait to see it. the hotness ofwill smith and charlize theron mmm.
no it looks stupid like all of his others (besides i am legend)
Already did it's great!
Re: dfshg –
Seriously, stop marketing on a blog. Especially when it is so transparent. Buy an ad.
Yes..
I am going to see it Sunday, it looks really good!!
Um…NO. It looks stupid
i watched it today!
its quite good actually.
he does Okay.
Charlize Theron saves the day though.
I think
haha.
i could be wrong.
the storyline is a bit more out there though.
GOSH!
sadi should become a film critic! LAWL.
loveeeeeeee.
sadi.x
this is soooooooo exciting…I am the first to post, this has neva eva happened to me. I am looking forward to checking it out though..I'm hearing mixed reviews
who cares what critics think. all I care is what I think about it.
I saw it … Dont waste your money … Wait until it comes out on dvd
critics are out of touch with audiences and reality
I didn't want to see it before the shit reviews, so now I really feel like I'm not missing anything. I'm tired of these robot actors and their formula films. Smith's proximity to Cruise is turning him into another highly uninteresting actor who comes off more like his own product placement than like a human being.
that sucks.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I hate ”will smith”'
all he iz ….iz tomkittyz
sex toy…they make me
sick…if they weren't
married it would b fine…
but all that FAKE SHIT FROM THEM…FUK THEM..
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
AND
EVERYTHING THEY DO…
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Hell yes! Of course, because Will Smith is soooooooooo funny.
NOPE WILL NOT SEE THIS SCI TOM CRUSIE FREAKTOID BUDDY EVER AGAN IN ANYTHING!
in all honesty, reviews have very little to do with a film. reviews are written by very ignorant, closed-minded people. it's very rare that a movie ever gets a "good" review, in fact, most "good movies" including a list of last years academy award nominees, all get poor reviews. for what reason? perhaps, because half of the reviewers are little people who haven't made it in Hollywood and instead sit behind their desks and right off everything that comes their way.
in reality, a movie is a pretty amazing thing from point A to point B — the entire process of putting everything from pre-production to the final touches on promotion.
no!!!
Absolutely, i loves me sum Will.
Re: Kate – Critics are definitely anti-will. Will gets some bad press and all of a sudden his movies suck? the mind of a critic can be compared to the mind of a 10 year old girl. It's all about popularity
Hell yes I'm watching it… The man is amazing!!!
I saw the movie already on tuesday night and my brother and i both liked it. it was fun. ITS A MOVIE GUYS. Something to ENTERTAIN your ass! and it did. Its not like its this OSCAR/Golden Globe type movie, but its a fun super hero movie. it was cool. I liked the twist in it, though i kinda already knew what was gonna happen once i saw Charlise Therons face. I recommend the movie.
I saw it opening night and enjoyed it. It wasn't the best movie I've ever seen but I definitely had a good time in the theatre.
Im still going to go see it. Critics dont always get it right and ive heard a lot of non-critics who have seen the movie say its good. Not great, but good. So i think ppl should just go see it for themselves instead of letting critics determine for them what they should and shouldnt see..
Re: Wendy Testaburger – get help
if ppl cared about reviews it wouldn't make $100 million!!!
one of the worst films ive ever seen, such a disappointment.x
i seen it last night and it was really good i liked it alot!
yep, we're going tonite. hope the whale being thrown back into the ocean isn't the only highlight in the movie.
I saw the movie, it was pretty good!
Nah,it looks alright but i wouldnt waste my money on it.
critics think they are more important than they are.
The only hancock I will be seeing this weekend. Is the hand of my slut going up and down my shieeett ya dig?
I saw it Tuesday and thought it was good. Nothing Oscar worthy or anything, but it was an amusing break from reality.
I already saw it and it was awesome!!! DONT LISTEN TO THE REVIEWS!!!!!!
saw it last night, and am taking my cousins to see it today so i liked it.
The Happening was shit, so I am expecting this to be shit too. But thanks to the beloved concoction known as alcohol, I will enjoy the movie.
I dont really go by REVIEWS! The movie was good…point and simple it was AMAZING! But it was for sure entertinaing and I would see it again. I laughed SOOOOOOOO hard at his attitude in the first 30 mins….the twist was kinda sudden and didnt develope enough, cause it was actually interesting but whatever
I saw it last night. THE MOVIE IS FREAKING AWESOME! Critics these days are all tired, old people. Great effects, Charlize is smoking hot. Will is very good.
Saw…Like it.
ANYONE WHO LISTENS TO A FILM CRITIC TO SEE WHAT THEY THINK IS A BIG OL' LOSER. THAT MEANS YOU PEREZ YOU DIRTY SLOB!
Is he naked on the movie?… that would make me go see it.
I saw the movie Tuesday and while Will Smith plays his role amazingly well, there was nothing he could do to save the rest of the film. The story lacked a clear direction. There were times when you just have no clue what if they're showing is supposed to be significant or not and if it is, it's just confusing. I.E. the frankenstien tickets towards the beginning, Charlize's pained expression when she sees him for the first time in the film. Am I supposed to get that they have a history or is she just trying to come off as a concerned mother?
Overall: I was mega-dissapointed BUT you will laugh, you will be entertained just don't expect something AMAZING (like I did) and you'll probably like it.
i saw the movie and it was great..
he may be rich and hang out with white people but trust me hes still a N!GGER
PEREZ IS ALWAYS TRYING TO KEEP THE BLACK MAN DOWN.
i really enjoyed the movie i laughed i cryed it was amazing great movie i just wanted more …..
I watched the trailer during the SaTC movie. I would not apy a dime to see this shit!
I will watch it
Saw it yesterday and liked it a lot!
I will watch it the same way I watched The Happening, Strangers, and The Hulk. Stoned out of my mind. If I were sober, the awfulness of those movies surely would have done me in.
hellz yes!
i love will smith
I went to see it yesterday and it freakin' rocked!
It was my favourite movie by him by far!
Going to see it on Monday. Trailers look good.
i just saw it this afternoon….i liked it!
I saw it last night. I thought it was great.
i already saw it. i thought it was really good!!
The scientology curse is hitting on Will Smith. First Tom Cruise then Will Smith.
Heavens NO I will not go to see this! I go to movies where there are GOOD actors, I go to movies of interesting stories. No, no, NO. No Will Smith on my list of "good actors." Pluh-eeeeeeze.
'Shiteous reviews?' 100 mill opening weekend is the PEOPLE speaking. Reviewers are mostly frustrated wannabees. It's at the point where if I read a bad review, I mostly usually really like the film.
not really interested; however, my man wants to watch it over the weekend! I am all for Wall.E
Perez…your facts are fucked…again.
Hancock is getting 'mixed' reviews…lots of critics are loving it.
One review does not make it a bomb.
HELL TO THE NO -
I saw the trailer, it looked stupid, like my super ex-girlfriend, that bombed.
This is not like Batman, or Ironman, that has a fan base and history, this is crap. It was made just to get made. I respect that, but get a plot, get a story line. You can have all the special effects in the world, but if it sucks.
IT SUCKS>
AGain
Won't
see
it!!
just
caca!!
Scientology
sucks
yes, i will be watching it and i will form my own opinion– i mean review
Anything is better than seeing your nasty chest meat flapping in the breeze tomorrow.
Soooooooooooooo OVER Will Smith…Please send him back to Bel Aire!!!!
i saw it last night and it was fantastic…a little out of the ordinary for superhero movies but that made it way better
HAHA.
ANYONE that said this was good is either the company trying not to let it go down in flames or
Scientologist minions, trying to save Will Smith. Come on guys, this looks like a piece of shit. Will Smith can't save this.
Does anyone remember why MY SUPER EX-GIRLFRIEND bombed? just like this it has no fan base, no plot, to much scientologist crap and the trailer looked horrible, it also didn't show a villian?
We had the Joker for Batman
Ironman - Obedian Stane
Hulk - the Abomination and the General
Who does Hancock have? his cock.
….WHAT!?!?! And sponsor a needy child to the school of sciencreeptology!!!!
PEEPS…LawnJockey Cruise does NOTHING unless it is for the "cult of sciencreeptology"…His association with Will "Brown on the outside with the marshmellow white center" Smith is for the cult of sciencreeptology….so don't defend this crap as "religious tolerance…it is a CULT…L.Ron "I like little boys" was a drugged out scifi writer who went mad at the end of his life…
FOOK THIS MOVIE and FOOK WILL " I Used to be Black" Smith
when do you learn nobody cares about reviews.
NO…NO….NO….NO…..I will NOT see another movie where I spend my money on God's Chosen ONE with Super-Human powers!!! I'm really tired of seeing Will Smith play God's own version of mini-me who ALWAYS…ALWAYS…ALWAYS save the world in 1 hour and 37 minutes. Between him and Obama, they can probably rule the universe. Who needs little Tommy and his Chemistry Lab religion when you have Will Smith and his 'bad boy' self to tell it like it is??? Save your money people and go see something NEW for a change!!!!! Thats all! Happy 4th and 5th and 6th and 7th of July…….Enjoy your long weekend!!!!!
im goin to see it in like 55 min lol!!
hell no, hate will smith, sucky actor!
I watched it last night. i was super cute. I was laughing all thorough out the movie.
Will smith is hot.! and charlize theron is vicious.!
I saw it last night, Its no I am Legend, but its still decent. A good twist saves the movie from being a complete tank. Jason Bateman was really funny dry humor way. It's a good summer blockbuster. Personally I'm waiting for Dark Knight ( I have high hopes), and X-Files ( which might be shytty)!!! I *heart* Perez!
i wasnt planning on watching it, but i did last night. and, i REALLY liked it! It was better than i thought.
awww i thought it was good!
FORGET WILL SMITH…I'LL GO SEE THIS FOR JASON BATEMAN! YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HELL TO THE NO !!!
